Hmmm. now I've actually read what he said it's not that bad.A bit indiscreet perhaps.not sure I agree with this hidden camera school of journalism ,also its a bit like entrapment.

There's more that they haven't published,he's been slagging or Rupert Murdoch. He's declared war with him.

It's not just the newspapers that set Vince Cable up.
This is from October before this all blew up and probably explains why Vince is struggling with the whole Rupert Murdoch thing.

The Martyrdom of St Vince

At PMQs today, David Cairns MP asked about Sky News’ impartiality andits future ownership, asking for a guarantee that BSkyB would not be allowed to turn into another Fox News – which he called “shouty, reactionary propaganda.” Responding, Prime Minister David Cameron called this a matter for the Business Secretary.

There is little doubt that the Murdochs will be richly rewarded for the support of their newspapers during the election, but passing the decision to Cable is a clear act of low political cunning. It’s not the kind of issue he will resign over, but it will be the kind of issue that will seriously damage him with those on the left of the Lib Dems who still trust him to be their standard bearer. As I said in my post election post “What’s Next?”

“The Lib Dems have to make this work – the Tories do not. The Tories can push their agenda far, far harder than the Lib Dems currently realise, and – particularly this side of any referendum on AV – the Lib Dems will have to go along with them. They need to prove that coalition government works, the Tories – who will campaign against voting reform – do not.”

The Lib Dems have consistently been the public face of the cuts, and I’m sure Clegg would love making semi-rival St Vince the public face of rewarding Murdoch almost as much as Cameron will. Watch out for even more odd contortions from the man people once thought could do no wrong.

If I posed as something, would I get access to a high profile government minister?
The whole thing seems contrived and (like everything with the coalition) dishonest.

Was watching some press conference/Q&A thing on BBC News 24 this afternoon with :dcfo & :ncfo and the press were asking question ect on it and Cameron pointed to the next guy who was due to ask his question.
He pointed and called this blokes name then said "from the Telegraph,the bloke with the blue tie",and then muttered under his breath "with the hidden microphone."
Straight up!
