Rupert Murdoch was today attacked by a protester as he gave evidence to a parliamentary select committee.

The 80-year-old media tycoon was protected by his wife Wendi and a woman lawyer  who leapt to his defence to protect her husband.

Mr Murdoch was doused in a custard pie.

The attacker was hauled away by police. He has been identified as Jonnie Marbles on the New Statesman.

The hearing has been suspended. James Murdoch was in mid-sentence as the attacked was launched.01

He  got  six  weeks  only  because  it  was  caught  on  film  and  the  whole  world  knows  about  it  -  we  call  it  'the  embaressment  charge';  no  damage,  no  one  was  hurt  (except  feelings),  and  Murdock  is  very  rich.  To  make  this  go  away,  the  guy  had  to  do  alittle  time.  If  he  is  working  -  he'll  do  it  on  weekends.  The  expressions  on  the  committee  members  are  priceless.

One  would  wonder  how  the  guy  got  past  security?  With  a  pie?  And  what  are  they  protesting  anyway?  A  bit  humulating  -  none  the  less  a  good  one  for  the  protester.
