James Murdoch evidence questioned by former News International employees

Evidence on phone hacking given to MPs by News International chairman James Murdoch has been called into question by two former executives at the firm.

Mr Murdoch told the media committee he was not "aware" of an email suggesting the practice went wider than a "rogue" News of the World reporter.

Former NoW editor Colin Myler and ex-NI legal manager Tom Crone said they "did inform" him of the email. NI's parent firm News Corporation said Mr Murdoch "stands by his testimony".
