More quotes by Rupert Murdoch
We're not a manufacturer, or an airline, but we do use energy. Printing and publishing newspapers, producing films and television programs, operating 24-hour newsrooms. It all adds carbon to the atmosphere.
Rupert Murdoch
Elections are when you have to make a choice. Perfection not often attainable!
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.
Rupert Murdoch
If the head man in a company is not working 12 hours a day, doing things, taking risks, but also standing with his people in the trenches at the most difficult of times, then the company loses something.
Rupert Murdoch
In motivating people, you've got to engage their minds and their hearts. I motivate people, I hope, by example - and perhaps by excitement, by having productive ideas to make others feel involved.
Rupert Murdoch
I felt that it's best just to be as transparent as possible.
Rupert Murdoch
I feel that people I trusted - I don't know who, on what level - have let me down, and I think they have behaved disgracefully, and it's for them to pay. And I think, frankly, that I'm the best person to see it through.
Rupert Murdoch

Rupert Murdoch
I challenge anybody to show me an example of bias in Fox News Channel.
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
The buck stops with me, but I can tick off dozens of very good senior executives that are responsible for hundreds or thousands of people who work for me.
Rupert Murdoch
Don't let's lose sight of what creates wealth. It is open markets, it is capitalism.
Rupert Murdoch
I'm a catalyst for change. You can't be an outsider and be successful over 30 years without leaving a certain amount of scar tissue around the place.
Rupert Murdoch
Why would I spend $5 billion for something in order to wreck it?
Rupert Murdoch
I have to admit that, until recently, I was somewhat wary of the (global) warming debate. I believe it is now our responsibility to take the lead on this issue.
Rupert Murdoch
One thing I resent is the slur that I just support political candidates because of the business.
Rupert Murdoch
CNN is pretty consistently on the left, if you look at their choice of stories, what they play up. It's not what they say. It's what they highlight.
Rupert Murdoch
Most newspaper companies still have their heads in the sand, but other media companies are aggressive.
Rupert Murdoch
Imagine if we succeed in inspiring our audiences to reduce their own impacts on climate change by just 1 percent. That would be like turning the state of California off for almost two months.
Rupert Murdoch
Our reputation is more important than the last hundred million dollars.
Rupert Murdoch
