it may come down to where else james murdoch's prints can be found. >> james murdoch has made it clear he paid off a huge amount of money to gordon taylor who was a trade unionist who had his phone hacked. james has made it clear that he regards that as an error on his part and he much regrets it. >> reporter: if it's found that james murdoch knew more, smith says shareholders, board members may force his father's hand. >> if they were to really demand that james no longer be the heir, that he change the way the company is structured. he would have to listen to them. >> reporter: there are other reports that independent board membersover newspaper corporation are going even further questioning whether a change of leadership is needed. in other words, replacing james murdoch all together. contacted by cnn, a member of that board called those reports total crap. >>> some of the key players testified on tuesday before what is the british equivalent of a congressional hearing. among them rupert murdoch, his son james and rebecca brooks who resigned as head of the british paper this month.

if flagship murdoch newspaper here.he headline is "this is the most humble day of my life," and there's a big photograph of the hearing ipts. there's murdoch touching his son on the arm and wendy in the background looking contrite. the c.i.d.ny any morning her -- sydney morning's headline is "they were shocked, appalled and shamed that murdoch is denying blame." you have a photo of murdoch and his son looking grim and wendy sitting behind looking none to -- too happy. when you get into the coverage, the lead is the following sentence "rupert murdoch aaccused his commercial rivals in britain of whipping up a stir of the wrongdoing for their own commercial reasons. ." >> we're going to have to leave it there but thank you very much. it's very interesting to see how it's been -- being reported there. professor knight. we just want to show you some of the headlines that are coming up for us here. "murdoch's humble pie." that seems to be be -- the predominant headline on most of the u.k.'s papers. reference to him stating it

or news international need the murdochs? >> the institutional shareholders are the people who will count on that, and we all know what the fault line is in the states. my impression is that james, grasping for the shakespearean analogies, has nothing, nothing? my impression it is that rupert murdoch is not happy with the idea of james' succession. that is what rebecca was about. >> i think you will see a strong arm of corporate governance finally imposed on news corp. and news international companies. the board structures are not compliant with best practice of corporate governance. >> and that is all for this week. for all of us, good night. >> make sense of international news at bbc.com/news. >> funding for this presentation is made possible by -- the freeman foundation of new york, stowe, vermont, and honolulu, newman's own foundation, and union bank. >> union bank has put its global expertise to work for a wide range of companies, from small businesses to major corporations. what can we do for you? >> "bbc newsnight" was

murdoch. it halted the entire hearing. we are still waiting to hear from rebekah brooks. if you see it he was trying to get a pie in the face of rupert murdoch. if we can get that shot back up again, you can see in niz left hand a tin -- and see if we can get that shot back up. it looks like he had a tin in his left hand a cream pie that he was going to smash in the face of rupert murdoch during these hearings. the man was quickly taken away in handcuffs. you saw the images of him outside he had something all over his face. wendy dang in the pink jumping up. she is a volleyball player. that looks like a spike. she's known to be a fan of volleyball. anyway, you can see the pie right there trying to get in the face of rupert murdoch. the woman in the gray i'm not sure who she is. she was sitting to the left op of wendy dang. michelle is with us now. is this ovenly some type of protesters coming in to disrupt this and create a true embarrassment to rupert murdoch by delivering a pie in the face?

murdoch needed things from them. that never needed to be stated but everyone understood that that was hanging in the air and that's what this judicial inquiry has to get to the bottom of. >> i think murdoch's control of 37% of the britishress plus b sky b led to this conviction from tony blair to cameron that you had to have murdoch on your side. and, you know, when you're in britain you don't feel murdoch's running the show. i mean, you can read "the guardian," you can read t telegraph, you can read t daily expres you can read the f.t. but i just wonder but blair, i'm sure, would have won the election in 1997 without murdoch. it was the end of the toris just as it was the end of new labor in 2010. murdoch had his finger in the wind and he went with these guys but i don't myself bieve e elections uld have come out any differently withou so i think there was a kind of mythology that hadbuilt up. we have to have murdoch with us. and now it's the opposite. we have to trash him. >> rose: john burns, how much has been has

they curry favor with murdoch and he's very powerful specially in the u.k. you can call an election one way or another newspapers and television they've got stories they life because well even though these three legal means to be entertained their audience is the audience is like that to the police might have been involved in bribery but then again they might have gotten tips of information that might have led to a person prosecution so it's a very kind of odd arrangement everybody seemed to have gotten something out of it but nonetheless it was quite you legal i mean how do you look at that i mean is that why it went on for so long if the allegations are true well you just have to well you just have to look at the relationship involving the media and government and law enforcement in london it is a very unusual relationship and the environment in london for the tabloids especially is very aggressive viciously competitive and unfortunately in this case it crossed over into line of illegality so none of this is a real surprise and it's been a long time coming

murdoch over the years. i also think there have been liberal politicians, democrats, who have been more loath to criticize mr. murdoch in the past, or fox, for fear of having some of the kind of repercussions that british politicians were also afraid of. they do not become targets of fox news. >> in congress, concerns are growing, especially after the suggestion, still unsubstantiated, that news of the world journalists may have been hacking the phones of 9/11 victims. calls have been made to the department of justice and the securities and exchange commission to investigate the allegations. u.s. companies are banned from paying bribes to foreign officials. >> last week when the story broke, this became an interesting story to americans. we found it titillating, fascinating, but it was not necessarily penetrating the consciousness of the greater american public. this week, on the other hand, we are starting to see greater american interest in the story because it could affect americans, not just people in br

murdoch and his people have a really sleazy reputation now we're getting evidence of it. well murdoch has always been hyper aggressive he distinguished himself that way in australia than in britain and here in the united states you know i see no end to it but i would like to say i think this is very much politically motivated the attacks on murdoch and i would like to talk about that during the show i think there's a there's a problem with many of the left wing critics attacking him for murdoch's politics and i think that's a business we don't want to be and that's very interesting sean if i can go to you in oxford this any of these allegations and they're very very serious surrounding murdoch and his media assets do any of these things surprise you and are you bothered by the fact that this investigation started two years ago and it's only now that it's getting the light of day that people actually seriously talking about it because these allegations have been out there and the police have known about it . they have and they conducted their own investigation several year

it is the murdoch -- what we see is the murdoch who believes he is in control. so he believes he's in control. yet to the rest of the world, what is obviously happening in we see him losing control in a way we see him out of control. >> sarah, he also said in that journal interview that news corp has handled this crisis extremely well in every way possible, just some minor mistakes. >> which is ludicrous because you just watched the way they've had to reverse themselves through the course of the week. first of all, they weren't going to appear in front of a committee of mps. then later they would. take these in british papers, ads saying "i'm sorry." can you imagine when rupert murdoch has said i'm sorry. he. >> getting high-level pr advice. david, a short time before break. a national review online says you are treating this as the second coming of watergate and suggests geraldo rivera said you were a weak-kneed, backstabbing, sweaty palm report sgler my palms are relatively dry. people can decide for themselves. it's political, law enforcement, journalistic im

murdoch and asked him about this? >> no, i haven't. >> are you confident knowing him -- >> i'll probably see him in the next couple of days or week. i see him all the time at various functions. >> are you confident enough in him? >> he's a competent, honorable man. this can't be something he'd have anything to do with. >> here's why giuliani is not muir dorsch's greatest character witness. number one, giuliani has been in murdoch's pocket for years. i've seen this up close working in new york politics, and i can tell you the new york republican relationship to murdoch is as ugly as you'd imagine it to be. you might expect giuliani to be a little more, i don't know, animated about the criminal exploitation of 9/11 victims. he is the biggest political exploiter of 9/11 we've ever seen. trying to base a hopeless and ridiculous presidential campaign on the simple fact that he was mayor of new york city during 9/11. the accusations that the fbi is now investigating involve hacking into phones of the families of 9/11 victim

they said at least 50% more without rupert murdoch. the way they get it is from estimates of barclay's, and they say that it is worth much more than it trades for on the market, so there is a generic murdoch discount which encompasses that he will make decisions that are not consistent with the other shareholder interests. and so what makes news corp vuler inable is that this could make the murdoch discount as they call it bigger. in the short term, it may not matter that much, because murdoch's family owns 43% of the company and it would be difficult to kick him out, but if the family is discredited and the investors see a company worth a lot more than it is trading for and ripe for a takeover and you know who is very good at taking over businesses that are ripe with family struggles? "the new york times," because that is how he acquired them. they might not even need that much convincing to sell the company for much more than it is worth if they remain in charge of it. joining us now are brian steltzer, journalist at "the new york ti

the influence that the murdoches have had. the way he managed to advance his business empire by heavying up on politics. these are newspapers which use personal stories of the most i'll have kind very often in order to humiliate people in power. in a way, of course, he's right. all journalists should give people in power hell. but the motivation in this case turns out to be slightly different. what he doesn't get, actually people in britain are just sick of it, and that pie in the face, you know, i think in america, why is a poor old man getting a pie in the face? a lot of people in america will feel sorry for him. not in britain. >> i kept watching it today, thinking citizen cane. thank you very much. a pleasure. >>> still ahead tonight, tony blair's press secretary with a behind-the-scenes look at how the murdoch media empire had britain's most prominent politicians battling for its blessings. n e highw. how does it do that? well, to get there, a lot of complicated engineering goes into every one. like variable valve timing

the murdochs seemed to be walking a line. they're saying they're hands-on executives who run a huge business but they don't know everything that is going on. they didn't know a lot of particulars here. how does that jibe with what's known about the way they formed and run their business? >> well, i think what they were doing was portraying themselves as capable executives and capable managers who nonetheless didn't know some of the operational details that... it doesn't quite jibe with what we know about particularly rupert murdoch, his love of newspapers although the company's future is really in media and entertainment and television. you know, he came up through newspapers that ink runs in his veins. he's known for calling up editors and suggesting new tips or even change in the headlines. when he first acquired the wall street journal he's said to enjoy prowling the news room and being invigorated by it. the idea he had no idea, its is possible. it is as he said, you know, that the news of the world less than 1% of his me

in addition to rupert murdoch being in the hot seat, james murdoch will be there and rebekah brooks, former "news of the world" editor and chief sbekive of news international. she of course was arrested sunday and released without charge in connection with the phone hacking and she could be limited in what she has to say because of the ongoing police investigations, nina. >> atika, we've had the death of sean hall, former "news of the world" employee who was also a crucial whistle-blower her and two top coppers in the land departing as a result. it's the questioning very serious now. >> reporter: is getting serious and with the death of sean hohrer, unexplained but not considered suspicious at this time but he was the one who pointed the finger at andy coulson and david cameron, not only did andy coulson will phone hacking, but he actively encouraged the phone hacking. this threatens the murdoch media empire but really also downing street, that prime minister cameron himself is now taking this very seriously. he is coming back early from south africa today to attend a special day of

>> because rupert murdoch is a newspaperman. he loves the news. he loves dialling into his editors and giving them tips and hearing the gossip and finding out what's happening and trying to drive the news and drive the conversation. so when he says he's uninvolved with the newspapers there's some people in the business that say that doesn't ring true. >> spoken like a newspaperman. andrew ross sorkin. thank you. >>> and there was that startling moment during the hearing today when a guy attacked rupert murdoch with a cream pie and then murdoch's wife got up and took a roundhouse swing at the attacker. that kind of fierce devotion and protection seemed familiar to those familiar with wendi murdoch. nbc's andrea mitchell has more on the wife of rupert murdoch. >> reporter: she responded in a flash, leaping forward to protect her husband from an attacker. instinctive, fierce, athletic. a former volleyball player in school. all that, plus a lot more. the young, glamorous, chinese-born third wife of rupert murdoch. >> i think all the people are movers

for one day, it was a pretty good day for the murdoch's. >> could james murdoch be the heir apparent? >> 1 said that if james murdoch had done particularly badly, it would have hurt his possibility of taking over as ceo. he seems to be taking charge during this session and it did not heard him. -- did not hurt him. any day they are not hurt is a good day. >> do you see long-term reputation damaged to the company, regardless of what happens with these institutions? >> i have been tried to ponder how you measure that damage. people will still flock to see 20 century fox movies and to buy the wall street journal's. in the short-term, clearly there is a stain on the u.k. newspaper operations. there was an attempt to contain the damage. >> there is an fbi investigations into the phone hacking and a traditional inquiry and a police investigation on the other side of the atlantic. these will be very problematic. >> if they do will arrive, they would be. it is hard to believe we would get to that point. there is no evidence that any victims of 9/11 had their phone hacked. other government reg

yesterday media mogul rupert murdoch and son james murdoch appeared before the u.k. parliament to answer questions about what they knew about the phone hacking scandal in sweden britain and the elder murdoch wasn't interested in taking any responsibility for the fiasco. this time of the open with. this whole fiasco. you have no doubt then who is shortly after that answer is shaving cream pie was thrown at murdoch proving that no matter what murdoch is involved in a matter how big the story is it always devolves into infotainment and spectacle then today more allegations were leveled at news corp from the u.k. parliament house of commons report alleges that news international blocked the first investigation into the phone hacking scandal report reads we deplore the response of news international to the original investigation of the happening is almost impossible to escape the conclusion that they were deliberately trying to thwart a criminal investigation and prime minister david cameron squared off against attractors in parliament as we desperately tries to save face

urging them to investigate murdoch's news corporation in the us in washington we have dave south danae he is communications director for free press and in london we cross to toby young he's a journalist and author of how to lose friends and alienate people all right gentlemen crosstalk rules and in fact that means you can jump in anytime you want kevin if i can go to you first because of your open letter here i took a look at some of the button laws and by laws of the f.c.c. and they basically their job is to make sure how the airwaves are used and they have to ensure that they're used by people of quote good character who serve the public interest and speak with candor so does murdoch's television empire at least have any place in the united states today in light of what we've heard coming out of the u.k. . while we're here you know the u.k. and also we're hearing some to the united states of phone hacking where you know the u.k. would make murdoch and his news corp violator of the foreign corrupt practices act which has criminal and civil penalties. basically doesn't allow u.s. corpo

just when you thought it couldn't get worse for the murdochs, we learn that james murdoch may have been less than truthful when he told parliament he was not aware of how extensive the phone hack was until recently. now the u.s. justice department is investigating. also to paraphrase bob dylan you don't need a weather man to know it's hot out there. so hot, we're going to ask is overpopulation partly responsible for global warming? and caddy sacked. few people closer than a golfer and his caddy, tiger woods' firing of his caddy of 13 years is beginning to look like an ugly divorce. the caddy has said five words that must terrify tiger and thrill his critics. those words, when i write my book. >>> finally, let me finish with the end of your neighborhood and mine. >>> we start with senator ben harden today. you were with the president in your state today. tell us the latest on the deal. >> it's good to be with you. we've got to pass the debt ceiling by august 2nd. really it's the republicans in the house that are holding this up. the president's trying to come together with an agreement.

is rupert murdoch damaged? >> i think rupert murdoch's been hugely damaged by this. >> reporter: charlie beckett of the london school of economics says murdoch's image as an all- conquering media tycoon has been undercut by questions. >> why didn't he know? why didn't he do something about it? who's in charge of news corporation? >> reporter: rupert murdoch built the news corporation from a single family-owned newspaper in south australia. in the 1960s he moved into britain, buying up the "news of the world" and later the "times" of london. in the '70s he took aim at new york where he'd add the "new york post" and the "wall street journal." his satellite t.v. empire includes the fox network in the u.s., sky in europe, star tv in asia. >> i love the free market. it's certainly been very good to me. >> reporter: but the same market is now punishing him, while stock in news corporation rebounded today, it's fallen 12% since the scandal began. >> my company has 52,000 employees. i have led it for 57 years and i hav

dr you serve the public interest and speak with candor so does murdoch's television empire at least have any place in the united states today in light of what we've heard coming out of the u.k. . well we're here you know the u.k. and also we're hearing some tidbits united states of phone hacking but where you are the u.k. would make murdoch and his news corp violator of the foreign corrupt practices act which has criminal and civil penalties. basically doesn't allow u.s. corporations to bribe foreign officials if murdoch is bribing foreign officials as seems to be the case they're talking about one hundred hundred thousand pounds or one hundred thousand dollars worth of bribes to the london police if that happened evolve the law and the f.c.c. should look at that and say that the twenty four stations he own that cover forty percent of united states he should not be allowed a license of a news corp's license that should be revoked and a new new new station are sure to come into play so i don't think he has any place the united states and it's very important for. ok tobi i'd like to go to
