More quotes by Rupert Murdoch
Is there any other industry [than the press] in this country which seeks to presume so completely to give the customer what he does not want?
Rupert Murdoch
It's a libel to say that I use my newspapers to support my other business interests. The fact is, I haven't got any other business interests.
Rupert Murdoch
Since when are Egyptians not white? All I know are.
Rupert Murdoch
I think a newspaper should be provocative, stir 'em up, but you can't do that on television. It's just not on.
Rupert Murdoch
Some of our businesses use more energy than others, but our strategy everywhere is the same... first, reduce our use of energy as much as possible. Then, switch to renewable sources of power where it makes economic sense... And, over time, as a last resort, offset the emissions we can't avoid.
Rupert Murdoch
Monopoly is a terrible thing, till you have it.
Rupert Murdoch
I'm a strange mixture of my mother's curiosity my father, who grew up the son of the manse in a Presbyterian family, who had a tremendous sense of duty and responsibility and my mother's father, who was always in trouble with gambling debts.
Rupert Murdoch
The reality is that we've seen the last of any serious price wars for a long time. I don't think any of the others could afford it, certainly not on a long-term basis.
Rupert Murdoch
We need to push ourselves to make as many reductions as possible in our own energy use first - and that takes time. But we must do this quickly - the climate will not wait for us.
Rupert Murdoch
Most newspaper companies still have their heads in the sand, but other media companies are aggressive.
Rupert Murdoch
News - communicating news and ideas, I guess - is my passion. And giving people alternatives so that they have two papers to read (and) alternative television channels.
Rupert Murdoch
We have no intention of failing. The only question is how great a success we'll have.
Rupert Murdoch
Endemic is a very hard, a very wide ranging word. I also have to be very careful not to prejudice the course of justice that is taking place now.
Rupert Murdoch
One thing I resent is the slur that I just support political candidates because of the business.
Rupert Murdoch
If Hillary [Clinton] gets elected what she's promised to do with the [New York] banks is going to make London boom.
Rupert Murdoch
We've got to lift our game tremendously. We'll sell our business news and information in print, we'll sell it to anyone who's got a cable system, and we'll sell it on the Web.
Rupert Murdoch
People are reading news for free on the web, that's got to change.
Rupert Murdoch
We've got to get rid of the fear of failure in this country. In America, people start things, fail and shake themselves down and start things again. The animal spirit of capitalism is stronger there.
Rupert Murdoch
I am amazed that CNN can't get its act together.
Rupert Murdoch
As an immigrant, I chose to live in America because it is one of the freest and most vibrant nations in the world. And as an immigrant, I feel an obligation to speak up for immigration policies that will keep America the most economically robust, creative and freedom-loving nation in the world.
