Our Reputation Is More Important Than The

For Better Or For Worse, Our Company (the News Corporation Ltd.) Is A Reflection Of My Thinking, My Character, My Values.

I Think The Important Thing Is That There Be Plenty Of Newspapers, With Plenty Of Different People Controlling Them, So That There Are A Variety Of Viewpoints, So There Is A Choice For The Public. This Is The Freedom Of The Press That Is Needed.

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.

Can We Change The World? No, But Hell, We Can All Try.

My Worry About The New York Times Is That It's Got The Only Position As A National Elitist General-interest Paper. So The Network News Picks Up Its Cues From The Times. And Local Papers Do Too. It Has A Huge Influence. And We'd Love To Challenge It.
