The Latest Liability Facing James Murdoch


In his fathers absence, James Murdoch seems to have taken the roll on to defied the might 'new international' from the intense scrutiny of the commons culture committee. Like a typical newspaper story it seems to be taking twists and turns at every point.

James denied repeatedly that he had been told three years ago about evidence that hacking went beyond a single journalist and where new international/news of the world could find themselves liability for this action, however his version of these matters where contradicted by 2 top executives, Tom Crowe stating that James Murdoch evidence was 'disingenuous'.

If the true story ever comes out the Murdoch empire may face substantial liability case and in any case lawyer may well consider claiming on current information against any Professional Indemnity Insurance policy in place or indeed direct against the Directors and senior members of staff.

Perhaps on a Directors and Officers Insurance where directors or senor executive may have to defend any allegations individually.
