Piers Morgan on Rupertgate: 'Murdoch victim of a 'witch hunt'

Piers Morgan, the former editor for Rupert Murdoch's now-defunct News of the World, dedicated a segment of his CNN show Monday to defending the media mogul.

Former New York Post reporter Vicky Ward, who is a personal friend of Murdoch's, joined Morgan.

"Piers, I just got a call an hour ago, and Rupert wanted to tell me personally that, you know, he's not okay," Ward reported. "Ever since he met with Milly Dowler, the murdered girl's parents, he hasn't felt the same. His voice has been cracking, people around him are very concerned, his children are very concerned. This is a man who is more devastated than he has ever been in his entire 80 years, and you know, he is appalled at what's gone on on his watch, and I think he's as anxious to get to the bottom of it as we all are."

"I just cannot accept -- although there is this huge witch hunt going on to bring him down personally -- I don't accept that he himself would be party to illegal activity," Morgan asserted.

"I completely agree with you, Piers," Ward replied.

"He became a friend to me when I was at The New York Post, he would stop by my office and talk to me. He wanted to know what tomorrow's headlines were. He would not in any way want to interfere with a story. This is a man who cares so much about his legacy. He once said to me, 'All I want is for my kids to be decent people.'"

"I wouldn't want this to become a kind of valedictory, he's perfect kind of segment," Morgan said finally.

"The one thing about Rupert is that -- yes, he can be ruthless, but actually we can just talk about this, he's ruthless, but also entrepreneurial. He built an empire, often at great personal risk. But tomorrow I expect to see a very, very sincerely contrite person [when he appears before parliament]," Ward concluded.

The CNN host was drawn into the News Corp. phone hacking scandal when Liberal Democrat MP Adrian Sanders called for Morgan to be questioned.

The following entry from Morgan's diary had made Sanders suspicious:

"Apparently if you don't change the standard security code that every phone comes with, then anyone can call your number and, if you don't answer, tap in the standard four digit code to hear all your messages... I'll change mine just in case, but it makes me wonder how many public figures and celebrities are aware of this little trick."

Comedian held after Murdoch attack
Custard-pie stunt at select committee

Image

Occasional comedian Johnnie Marbles has been arrested after a custard pie attack on Rupert Murdoch during a Commons select committee.

The 80-year-old media mogul was hit with a plate full of shaving foam while giving evidence to the media and culture committee.

Murdoch was protected by his wife Wendi and a female lawyer who leapt to his defence to protect her husband.

Marbles – whose real name is Jonathan May-Bowles – tweeted before the attack: ‘It is a far better thing that I do now than I have ever done before #splat.’

A known activist with a history of protest stunts, Marbles had been in the session all afternoon, earlier tweeting: ‘I'm actually in this committee and can confirm: Murdoch is Mr. Burns’ and ‘Rupert Murdoch appears to be going senile.’

The hearing was suspended for about 15 minutes following the attack, and the public were not allowed in when it resumed. Mr Murdoch was praised for MPs for his bravery in returning to the questioning, while Tom Watson MP joked: 'Mr Murdoch, your wife has a good left hook.'

However, fellow comedians were unhappy that the custard-pie incident became a distraction from the allegations against News Corps.

Marcus Brigstocke said: ‘This fucking idiot has probably just changed the news agenda. Fuck you Johnnie Marbles you asshole

Daniel Maier called him an ‘infantile attention-seeking tosspocket’ and Nick Doody said: ‘Brilliant. Now the story is that Rupert Murdoch is extraordinarily brave. Thanks.’

And UK Uncut, the protest group Marbles helped set up, said the attack was not an action they sanctioned.

The 26-year-old, from Croydon, has apparently been involved in protests over Heathrow and London City airports and at the Copenhagen climate change conference, and sit-ins at Vodafone and TopShop.

Here is footage of Marbles doing a comedy set:

The BBC reports him saying afterward that: "Rupert Murdoch will understand the irony, but I cannot comment while a police investigation is ongoing." I wondered if he might've been a friend of Sean Hoare's at first, or a Dowler relative, but it seems more like it was just an attention-seeking move.

"Rupe's Group in Foam-Pie Fracas" - The Sun, tommorrow. Except that they probably won't cover the hearings at all.

Also, Marcus Brigstocke is shit.

Becky is doing great.
Once you can fake sincerity, the world rolls up to you like a Red (or in this case Russet) Carpet.


She is giving an absolute masterclass in evasion. \<]

Imagine someone mugging you, but they are wearing a mask.
Later that your best friend hears about your experience and comes round and ministers to you. You are amazed at how empathic they are, they make you feel so much better.

It's the same person.

Of course all these resignations, largely from the anti-terrorist branch at the Yard (which is also the anti-phone-hacking branch, it would seem,) mean the infamous Cressida Dick of common purpose is now head honcho of the nation's anti-Terror efforts.

One of the techniques Becky is using is to shift the level of the conversation up from a specific to a more general, but a more general one that elicts an emotional impact and then to anchor her agreement to that and anchor their agreement to it and collapse anchors - it creates the experience of her being utterly 'on your side'. It also sidesteps your detailed question, but you find it hard to remember that because you are one with her...

She was nowhere near as convincing as Andy Hayman, though. Those sweaty hours of rehearsal with the lawyers, all the expensive body-language and speech coaching... it really paid off. :lol:
