傳媒大鱷--Rupert Murdoch
Rupert Murdoch, Media
Mogul
Born: 11 March 1931
Birthplace: Melbourne,
Australia
Best Known As: The power behind the News Corp. media empire
Born name: Keith Rupert Murdoch
Keith Rupert Murdoch was small, pudgy, short tempered, and blunt spoken; he
was also charismatic, charming even to his enemies, and patient when criticized.
A very complex man whom even his wives had trouble understanding, Murdoch
created a media empire that was like his personality-contradictory, large, and
dominating. He liked to describe himself as colorless and boring, but numerous
accounts by those who worked with him attested to his having been a stirring
leader who could galvanize his employees to achievements that had seemed
impossible.
Murdoch's father was Sir Keith Murdoch, who had been knighted for services to
the crown and was a national hero in Australia. He was also one of the 20th
century's most celebrated journalists: he was credited with revealing the truth
about Britain's invasion of Gallipoli during World War I and with changing the
British government's policy as a result, with troops being withdrawn from
Turkey.
Rupert Murdoch inherited a small Australian newspaper in 1952 and
aggressively turned it into one of the biggest media corporations in the world,
News Corp., a conglomerate that includes television, feature films, online
services, newspapers and books. Over the years Murdoch acquired more and more
media outlets all over the world, from Australia and Europe to the U.S. and
China. Now one of the world's wealthiest men, he is frequently criticized for
his political views and for "lowering the standards" of the publications and
outlets he acquires. In the 1980s he became a U.S. citizen in order to meet
requirements for owning TV stations. In the early 1990s his empire was stretched
thin financially, but by the end of the '90s it had bounced back with successes
on cable television and with the network Asian Star Television. News Corp.'s
holdings include the Fox TV Network, HarperCollins Books, 20th Century Fox and
The New York Post.
Other media moguls of the same era include Murdoch's rivals Robert Maxwell
and Ted Turner and Microsoft chairman Bill Gates.
魯伯特·默多克足跡遍及六大洲，他是一個(gè)前所未有的傳媒大亨。他一個(gè)人控股電視、有線電視、衛(wèi)星電視、電影、書籍、雜志、網(wǎng)絡(luò)以及報(bào)紙。
默多克是一個(gè)冷酷無情的、好爭(zhēng)斗的、令人不可思議的企業(yè)家，對(duì)他的評(píng)價(jià)褒貶不一。他感覺到在與權(quán)力機(jī)構(gòu)抗?fàn)帟r(shí)一直處于劣勢(shì)，但他知道普通人想要什么，因而取得了成功，他憑這一點(diǎn)建立了他的帝國(guó)。他通過性、危言聳聽以及杜撰來獲取大量的錢財(cái)。
西方主流媒體對(duì)默多克評(píng)價(jià)毀譽(yù)參半，主要集中在默多克對(duì)商業(yè)利益無止境的追求。新聞集團(tuán)雖以“新聞”起家，但該集團(tuán)超過60%的收益來自“娛樂”及相關(guān)產(chǎn)業(yè)。
