Media Moghul Murdoch Gets Slapped by a Foam Pie

In the wake of the phone hacking scandal, which has led to the arrests of media big wigs such as Rebekah Brooks and Andy Coulson, there comes a new eye popper.

Rupert Murdoch, chief executive and chairman of News Corporation, considered one of the most powerful and influential people in the world, who is also the owner of Fox Broadcasting Company, American publisher Harpers Collins and The Wall Street Journal to name a few has been slapped across the face with a shaving foam pie by an intruder into the British Parliament.

This has shocked many since such an incident is unheard of in UK's illustrious parliamentary history. Rupert, his Chinese wife Wendi Deng and son James were called to the British Parliament for a hearing of the phone tapping scandal which led to the closure of his paper News of The World which had been publishing for the past 168 years.

After two hours of the hearing in the parliament, a man later identified as Jonathan May Bowles who described himself as an activist and a comedian walked into the parliament and slapped a plate of foam across Rupert Murdoch's face saying You naughty Billionaire. His wife lunged forward and blocked the attacker and also slapped the plate back towards him.

After a small break, the questioning session was resumed again. With 10 high profile arrests so far, and a lot of resignations which has shaken up the newspaper world, only time will tell what more this phone hacking scandal is going to uncover.
