Pie-Thrower Does Rupert Murdoch a Favor

I'm sure the idiot that threw the shaving cream pie at Rupert Murdoch during a hearing in Parliament yesterday thought he was making some grand moral statement.  In fact, he did Murdoch a huge favor.  Today, instead of talking about the testimony and any news that might have come from that, the media is talking about the pie-throwing and the mighty right-hand slap that Murdoch's wife threw at the thrower.  The thrower did a better job of steering the media away from the meat of the hearing than anything Murdoch could have done.

Fair or not, it also made Murdoch look like a vulnerable old man, and Parliament look incompetent.

Being 80, he is old. And vulnerable, because that room should have been secure. Go, Wendi!
