CNN host Piers Morgan has been dragged into the escalating phone-hacking scandal at the UK tabloid News of the World.
During the Parliament hearings, Tory MP Louise Mensch claimed Morgan had admitted in his book, "The Insider," that he used phone hacking to get stories when he was the editor of The Mirror, a competing tabloid, in 1996.
Morgan talked with "Extra's" Terri Seymour about the claims, denying ever using that practice at The Mirror.
"Absolutely not, absolutely not," Morgan told Seymour. "What she's trying to do is smear my good name. It certainly never happened at The Mirror when I was there, to my knowledge."
