Phone hacking - under siege Murdoch appears before Parliament again

Moving away from virtual phone numbers again this week, we are drawn back to the telephone number phone hacking scandal again. It really does make for compelling viewing! Yesterday we had the increasingly under siege James Murdoch appearing again before the ever growing in confidence Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee. Chairman John Whittingdale and his committee, which includes the Labour MP Tom Watson and the Tory former chick lit writer turned MP Lousie Mensch (nee Bagshawe) are really starting to get used to taking on the Murdoch empire now, with Watson accusing Murdoch of being a mafia boss. The former lawyer for Murdoch's company suggested afterwards that Murdoch has misled Parliament, and there were reports swirling that either Murdoch was not being truthful or was not on top of his job as he should have been. The whole sorry scandal continues.
