[backstage] Interview with Rupert Murdoch

2009-11-10 Thread Tim Dobson
37 minute interview with Rupert Murdoch...

Very interesting to hear his perspective on everything, however much I
disagree with it.

He calls the BBC a scandal...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7GkJqRv3BI

Thoughts? Anyone think he's got some valid points?

There's an article on the guardian about how he wants to sue the BBC

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/greenslade/2009/nov/10/rupert-murdoch-bbc

Apparently, the BBC is stealing his news.



I wonder how long it will be before he retires.

I wouldn’t count on that being much help. James, at the very least, is even 
worse than he is (and has the current Shadow Culture Secretary on-side).

For a different take on events, Mark Cuban thinks  Murdoch is right and that
News Corp only needs Twitter

Though you would think with the way Murdoch is claiming everyone is
stealing his news, he'd accuse Twitter of it as well.
