Quote: Interviewed on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, Mr Clegg was asked whether he believed Mr Murdoch, the News Corporation CEO, was a "fit and proper person" to own media in this country.
Mr Clegg replied: "Clearly, there are big questions about the fitness and properness of News International. That is exactly why Ofcom are now looking at it.
"The thing that is not clear to me is how fit and proper tests are applied.
"If you ask lawyers what they mean by a fit and proper test, they all come up with different answers."
Mr Clegg criticised senior figures at News International, a subsidiary of NewsCorp and the publisher of The Sun, The Times and The Sunday Times, and until recently the News of the World, for failing to take responsibility for the journalistic abuses. |
