Select committees: Reaction to appearances by police, the Murdochs and Brooks
July 20th, 2011Posted by Andy Halls in Journalism, Politics
The focus on Twitter seemed to be entirely on the appearance of Murdoch and son, Rebekah Brooks and two senior Metropolitan police officers at two parliament select committees yesterday (19 July).
Sir Paul Stephenson and John Yates appeared before the home affairs select committee, before Rupert and James Murdoch – and then Rebekah Brooks – came before the culture, media and sport committee.
Below is a Storify to show some of the reaction on Twitter to MPs’ questions and the responses MPs received.
