[See NewsBusters for more.] The day after Rupert Murdoch announced he was stepping down from some of his roles at Fox, CBS This Morning on Friday brought on an author to trash his successor and son, James Murdoch. Asked by Gayle King what the new CEO is like, Michael Wolff attacked, "James is an arrogant so-and-so and I don't know of anyone who has worked with him outside of the circle whole has had nice things to say about him." After Wolff described the younger Murdoch as "an expert on everything" who "listens to no one," even co-host Charlie Rose was shocked. He pushed back: "That's a bit harsh, don't you think, Michael? Never listens to anyone?"
