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

MEDIA untouchables have suddenly learnt they are no longer "Untouchable" ... Down the gates fall at the first hoof command of justice.

It's better to be pie eyed, than it is to be pie faced!
