Pie Face prepares…
The chances that News Corp’s commentators are going to let the visit of British labour MP Tom Watson pass quietly seem low.
The man who led the charge against Rupert Murdoch in the Parliamentary News of the World phone hacking inquiry is due in Australia shortly.
He got this welcome in The Daily Telegraph from Tim Blair today:
“If you followed England’s Leveson inquiry into phone hacking, you’ll remember Watson as the hefty fellow with the designer specs who has issues with News Corp. If you ran a pie shop within waddling distance of the UK parliament, you’ll remember him as the bloke who put your kids through university and financed your BMW.
This is our media!
I know we are told we “get the government we deserve”, but NO ONE deserves our current media.
In the simplest terms embarrassing, in the real world, quite disturbing.
Although lucky Tom Watson can be back in London for…
Former News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks’ trial to start in September at the Old Bailey.
What is it about Rupert and pies? Does he have an allergy?
