Betty White wants Rupert Murdoch for NBC's "Off Their Rockers."

"The way he's been pranking Parliament with the whole 'I'm just a doddering old man' is a classic," said White, whose new show features senior citizens playing candid camera style pranks on young people.

Murdoch's appearance before Parliament in the hacking investigation went into its second day on Thursday.  The title of John Burns' NY Times piece is "Murdoch, Center Stage, Plays Powerless Broker." http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/26/world/europe/rupert-murdoch-testimony-leveson-inquiry.html?ref=europe

"On 'Off Their Rockers,' we had an old guy ask a young kid what it meant when a woman's 'carpet and drapes don't match,'" White said.  "I keep waiting for Rupert to pull out that line.  I tell you, he's a natural for this stuff."
