Poor Rupy
On The Colbert Report last night, a case was made for being humanized by pie. When Rupert Murdoch, under investigation for hacking victims' phones, was attacked with a foam pie on Tuesday, it caused his stock to spike. Is there anything pie can't do?

It is by no means a stretch of the imagination to think that Murdoch's people know how to manage news and perception. They've been making things up for years. Two whistleblowers are dead but it's "not suspicious?" I think the pie incident was a setup too. http://qualityshows.wordpress....
