AFP reports:
"Tiger mother" Wendi Deng was the toast of China's huge online community Wednesday as images of her leaping to the defence of her 80-year-old husband Rupert Murdoch were splashed across the Internet.
Deng, who is 38 years younger than Murdoch, was described as a "guardian angel" after her haymaker on a pie-wielding protester during a British parliamentary hearing on the News of the World hacking scandal on Tuesday. Footage of the 42-year-old — in a bright pink jacket and pencil skirt — clouting her husband's attacker drew nearly 430,000 hits on Youku, China's version of YouTube, and was the top international story on news websites such as Sina.com
Via Andy Yee, who translates an excellent post on the subject:
Deng Wendi is affectionate about Murdoch, and all husbands should sign up Taekwondo classes for their wives.
