Rupert Murdoch

Rupert Murdoch
Monopoly is a terrible thing, till you have it.

Rupert Murdoch
To find something comparable, you have to go back 500 years to the printing press, the birth of mass media – which, incidentally, is what really destroyed the old world of kings and aristocracies. Technology is shifting power away from the editors, the publishers, the establishment, the media elite. Now it’s the people who are taking control.
Rupert Murdoch
Elections are when you have to make a choice. Perfection not often attainable!
