If Rupert Murdoch isn't making headlines, he's busy buying the
media outlets that generate the headlines. His News Corp.
holdings--from the" New York Post," Fox News, and most recently
"The Wall Street Journal," to name just a few--are vast, and his
power is unrivaled. So what makes a man like this tick? Michael
Wolff gives us the definitive answer in "The Man Who Owns the
News."
With unprecedented access to Rupert Murdoch himself, and his
associates and family, Wolff chronicles the astonishing growth of
Murdoch's $70 billion media kingdom. In intimate detail, he probes
the Murdoch family dynasty, from the battles that have threatened
to destroy it to the reconciliations that seem to only make it
stronger. Drawing upon hundreds of hours of interviews, he offers
accounts of the Dow Jones takeover as well as plays for Yahoo! and
"Newsday" as they've never been revealed before.
Written in the irresistible stye that only an award-winning
columnist for "Vanity Fair" can deliver, "The Man Who Owns the
News" offers an exclusive glimpse into a man who wields
extraordinary power and influence in the media on a worldwide
scale--and whose family is being groomed to carry his legacy into
the future.
