The highly revealing Parliamentary hearings into Rupert Murdoch and the News Corp. hacking scandal were interrupted yesterday when spectator Jonathan May-Bowles, a.k.a. “Jonnie Marbles” tried to throw a shaving cream pie at the media baron but was thwarted by his wife, Wendi Deng. In an article in The Guardian, May-Bowles defended himself. “Simply put, I did it for all the people who couldn’t,” he said. “For a few bright moments I thought I might see justice done, keep the pie in my bag, and spare myself a night in jail. Those moments were short-lived: As committee member after committee member feebly prodded around the issues and [James] Murdoch Jr. began to dominate, I knew I was going to have to make a massive tit of myself.” I am more impressed Deng, Rupert’s 43 year-old third wife (wearing pink in the video.) That little lady can sky! Patrick Ewing couldn’t have done a better job of rejecting that pie.
