Rupert Murdoch attack video: Media mogul hit in face with 'foam pie'

Hearing in phone hacking scandal resumes after protester attacks Murdoch; hearing room cleared. A protester has rushed Rupert Murdoch as the media baron gave testimony to British lawmakers, causing a scuffle and suspending the hearing. A man appeared to rush up behind Murdoch and was then struck by Wendi Deng, who jumped up to defend her husband. Police in the back of the committee room were holding an apparently handcuffed man with white foam covering his face and shirt. The foam also appeared to have spattered Murdoch in the Tuesday afternoon attack.
