Tony Blair's Relationship With News Corp And Rupert Murdoch Heavily Scrutinized At Hearing


Tony Blair

Yesterday, former British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, testified at the Leveson hearing in London, England, regarding phone hacking by News Corp. Blair was asked about his friendship with News Corp CEO, Rupert Murdoch, whose company has criminally phone hacked, illegally wiretapped, computer hacked and stalked people, for stories to print in his News International newspapers and broadcast on Sky News in Britain and Fox News in America.

 He was also asked about being godfather to one of Murdoch's children, with the public wondering if it impacted his judgment regarding the News Corp CEO's behavior. Blair acknowledged their friendship, but denied all wrongdoing in the matter. During the hearing, a man burst through into the main room via a corridor and began yelling Blair should be arrested for being "a war criminal."
