Murdoch?s Lesson In Chinese Ass-Kissing
2008-05-05 17:51:00
Reviewed in the New York Times, a new book reveals lessons in media learned the hard way by one of the most successful men in the game: Mr. Rupert Murdoch himself. Back in 1993 the billionaire owner of News Corporation arrived in China, like many successful business men do, with dollar signs in his eyes. He had just bought a majority stake in Star TV, a fledgling satellite TV venture, with hopes of doing for Chinese TV what he had done in the UK thanks to Sky. But, to quote an overused cliché, the best laid plans often go awry.
News : Murdoch leaves door open to joint Yahoo bid
2008-04-22 17:22:00
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - News Corp's (NWSa.N: Quote, Profile, Research) Rupert Murdoch left the door open on Monday to a joint bid with Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O: Quote, Profile, Research) to buy Yahoo Inc (YHOO.O: Quote, Profile, Research), a day ahead of Yahoo's quarterly financial report. In response to a reporter's question about his interest in pursuing a bid with Microsoft for Yahoo, he said "Depends on the deal." Murdoch also repeated earlier remarks about not having the financial fire power to top Microsoft's bid. "I certainly can't afford to bid against Microsoft (for Yahoo)," he told attendees at a speech he gave at the Atlantic Council, an international affairs group. The 77-year-old media mogul said Google is gaining influence in the advertising world. "Is Google really going to get control of the advertising world, and should Microsoft be supported in their attempt to try and stop that?" he asked. Yahoo is expected to report its first quarter res...
Rupert Murdoch Firm Goes on Trial for Alleged Tech Sabotage
2008-04-22 02:33:00
Did a Rupert Murdoch company go too far and hire hackers to sabotage rivals and gain the top spot in the global pay-TV war? This is the question a jury will be facing in a spectacular five-year-old civil lawsuit that is finally being tried this month in California but which has, oddly, received little notice from U.S. media. The case involves a colorful cast of characters that includes former intelligence agents, Canadian TV pirates, Bulgarian and German hackers, stolen e-mails and the mysterious suicide of a Berlin hacker who had been courted by the Murdoch company not long before his death. On the hot spot is NDS Group, a UK-Israeli firm that makes smartcards for pay-TV systems like DirecTV. The company is a majority-owned subsidiary of Murdoch's News Corporation. The charges stem from 1997 when NDS is accused of cracking the encryption of rival NagraStar, which makes access cards and systems for EchoStar's Dish Network and other pay-TV services. Further, it's allege...

The other lobbyist John McCain is in bed with besides Rupert Murdoch — Ric

by Jayne Lyn Stahl Renzi, the congressman who, back in 2006, McCain called "Arizona's workhorse," and said has "integrity beyond reproach" was indicted yesterday on 36 federal corruption charges. Waiting for the other shoe to drop? Wondering if the yellow brick road will lead to another lobbyist — Jack Abramoff? Right around the same time McCain enthusiastically endorsed Renzi, Abramoff pled guilty to three counts of fraud, tax evasion, and conspiracy to bribe public officials. Well, there are bribes and there are bribes — some bribes are delivered under the table, and others come through black silk camisoles. Overall, from what we've seen, an elephant does a much better job of covering its tracks than anyone the Bush folks would endorse. Yet, there are those who say corruption, like beauty, is in the eyes of the beholder. That anyone claiming to go after special interest should be found with some "special" interests of his own, and so easily...

Murdoch donates 2,300 dollars to Hillary Clinton's campaign fund
2008-02-05 10:28:00
The New York Post may have scathingly rebuked Democrat presidential contender Hillary Clinton last week, but this did not stop its owner -- Rupert Murdoch -- from donating 2, 300 dollars to Clinton's campaign fund. According to the New York Daily News, the amount is the maximum allowed for a primary race, and Murdoch gave Clinton's rival Barrack Obama nothing. Murdoch even hosted a lavish fund-raiser in the summer of 2006 to stuff Clinton's Senate reelection war chest - a mere piggy bank compared to the White House run. Murdoch's love of Clinton is shared by his son and heir apparent, James, who ponied up 2,300 dollars for Clinton's primary run and another 1,150 dollars for the general election. (ANI)

Laclan Murdoch, a co-owner of one of eight IPL teams
2008-01-29 11:53:00
Media baron Rupert Murdoch's son, Lachlan, is a co-owner of one of the eight Indian Premier League (IPL) teams that will take part in a Twenty20 competition between April and June this year. Lachlan Murdoch emerged as one of the co-owners of an IPL team on Sunday. Sources, however, said that Lachlan's investment in Indian cricket was unrelated to his business deal with James Packer. Murdoch's private investment company Illyria said its decision to buy into the Jaipur-based Twenty20 team was unrelated to the bid for CMH. News.com.au quoted Illyria spokesman John Connolly as saying that Murdoch owned only "a very small percentage" of the team, which Illyria bought with the UK-based Emerging Media for 67 million American dollars. Murdoch and Packer are bidding for Consolidated Media Holdings (CMH) company, which owns 50 per cent of Premier Media (owner of the pay-TV sports channel Fox Sports), 25 per cent of pay-TV group Foxtel and 25 per cent of PBL Media, which in turn...

Murdoch Junior to buy into Packer media empire
2008-01-21 11:09:00
Lachlan Murdoch, the elder son of media baron Rupert Murdoch who had resigned as an executive with his father’s News Corporation in 2005, is all set to make a return to the media industry today by signing a two billion-dollar-plus deal to privatise James Packer's "Consolidated Media Holdings" (CMH). An announcement on the deal is likely to be made to the Australian Securities Exchange later in the day. It is believed Murdoch, who set up a private investment fund after resigning from News Corporation, will become the newly-privatised vehicle’s Executive Chairman. He has raised the capital to fund the deal outside News Corp, which owns the company that publishes national daily The Australian. As part of the deal, Murdoch and CMH’s current deputy chairman James Packer are expected to each take a 50 per cent stake in a joint venture vehicle to run the company. The deal marks yet another step by Packer away from the media empire that was long the hallmar...

Is Anyone Going To Act On The Murdoch Agenda Surrounding Ron Paul?
2008-01-15 15:56:00
I'd like to share a message from a reader about the recent story we did on Ron Paul. As we told you, presidential candidate Ron Paul appeared on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno regarding being excluded by FOX News from the Republican Debates in New Hampshire. It is not the only censorship Paul has received, either: despite leading Rudy Giuliani in the polls, Ron Paul has received less mass media coverage on the major cable channels than probably any other candidate who is still in the race - on either side.

As a matter of fact, he is all set to become the Rupert Murdoch of India. In my opinion, media and entertainment has been the object of his affection ever since his 360-degree separation from Mukesh Ambani. Initial signs are that ADA Group is planning to launch Direct to home (DTH) services in India shortly under the brand name Reliance blue magic. In addition, Anil Ambani has also decided to join forces with the Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates to foray into the IPTV space. Reliance?s IPTV service shall be powered by the Microsoft Mediaroom platform, which will allow Reliance to deliver completely new, connected and personalized television experiences for the Indian consumers, with number of advanced features.

Rupert Murdoch: leftist
2007-11-29 10:04:00
Accuracy in Media, a website devoted to correcting media bias, doesn’t just reserve its ire for liberal outlets. Rupert Murdoch gets it in the neck too, for endorsing new Australian PM Kevin Rudd: One Australian observer of Murdoch told AIM that “Murdoch’s helping of leftist candidates is no surprise to longtime readers of The Australian.†He explained, “Although their editorials are mostly pro-freedom and free-market, when it comes to elections they back whoever they think will win anyhow. This shows that Murdoch is more interested in power and influence. I would suggest he may have some vague conservative instincts, but these come a poor second to the accumulation of power. I therefore believe Fox was launched to fill a niche and make money for Murdoch rather than as a principled alternative to the MSM [mainstream media]. And if Murdoch thinks using Fox to pander to leftists will increase his influence, then he’ll do it. To put it another way, he has permanent interest...

Rupert Murdoch Says Next Year Could be “Rough”

With the uncertainties in the bigger economic picture, including credit, oil prices and housing concerns, Rupert Murdoch said that it will be very difficult to project how 2008 will be until things settle down and become clearer.Murdoch said concerning the near future: "Right now, all the economic indicators are that next year could be rough. We're not going to give guidance until we're a little bit closer to it." In referring to "guidance," Murdoch is talking about a snapshot of what he reasonably thinks the near future will hold for the company.Although the company posted a 13 percent drop in quarterly earnings over last year during the same period, that was mostly related to some one-off charges. Excluding that, the company enjoyed an operating profit increase of 23 percent. Overall, investors and analysts like what they saw.

According to JORDAN ROBERTSON, AP Technology Writer’s article, Murdoch announces that:“We hoped it would do very well, but we never imagined it would do this well.â€The prognoses are so much optimistic that DeWolfe and the co-founder Tom Anderson agree to have contacts with the company for 2 more years.According to the statistics the number of users of MySpace, after adding it to the ownership of Rupert Murdoch, has increased, and doubled from 90 million to 188 million.“This week, MySpace made a series of announcements signaling...
