More quotes by 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
There is so much media now with the Internet and people, and so easy and so cheap to start a newspaper or start a magazine, there's just millions of voices and people want to be heard.
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
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
We could make a difference just by holding our emissions steady as our businesses continue to grow. But that doesn't seem to be enough: we want to go all the way to zero... Today, I am announcing our intention to be carbon neutral, across all our businesses, by 2010.
Rupert Murdoch

Rupert Murdoch
So long as I can stay mentally alert - inquiring, curious - I want to keep going. I love my wife and my children, but I don't want to sit around at home with them. We go on safaris and things like that. I can do that for a couple of weeks a year. I'm just not ready to stop, to die.
Rupert Murdoch
I am amazed that CNN can't get its act together.
Rupert Murdoch
I've operated and launched newspapers all over the world.
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
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
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
We certainly employ a lot of immigrants at Fox... and we do not take any consistent anti-immigrant line.
Rupert Murdoch
Most newspaper companies still have their heads in the sand, but other media companies are aggressive.
Rupert Murdoch
Monopoly is a terrible thing, till you have it.
Rupert Murdoch
I think everyone's against abortion.
Rupert Murdoch
Don't let's lose sight of what creates wealth. It is open markets, it is capitalism.
