Rupert Murdoch Dodges a Pie on ‘the Most Humble Day of My Life’Posted on Jul 19, 2011
While testifying before the British Parliament on what he called “the most humble day of my life,” Rupert Murdoch nearly took a pie in the face. Luckily for the media tycoon, his wife, Wendi, literally leaped to the rescue with all of her athletic ability. For the curious, a gossipy history of the fairer Murdoch can be found here. —PZS

Rupert Murdoch Dodges a Pie?
You got it all wrong. He got plastered but good. If you find HD video and step it frame by frame you will see his face and whole right side is covered. His son got good part of it too.
As the Hearing continues you can see his jacket is missing, his face is freshly washed and he is clearly shaken.
They missed editing that part out.
Over the weekend it’s been found Both Murdoch’s will probably be charged for lying to Parliamentary Hearing.

As usual, only the comedian got it right. Perhaps if Wendi had given Rupert a good smack he would have come to his senses and stopped hacking into people’s phones and bribing policemen and sneaking into number 10 by the ‘back door’ to tell David Cameron, and Tony Blair before him, what policies to introduce. He’s not elected, he has no right to play kingmaker and impose his twisted view of the world on the voters of the United States, the UK and Australia. In Australia Rupert Murdoch controls 70% of the print media. In the UK he controls 40% of the print media. This is completely outrageous and should be illegal and would be if the laws hadn’t been changed to suit Rupert Murdoch by lily-livered politicians who were afraid of what Murdoch would print about them and their party if they didn’t toe the line. He has built a corrupt and deceitful global house of cards and now it’s coming down around him. And not before time, either.
