Struggling for inspiration?

THE MAN WHO OWNS THE NEWS

By MICHAEL WOLFF


If you are on one of our exciting media courses why not try this book profiling one of the most important men in world media?


Rupert Murdoch deals in companies that have extraordinary political and cultural power. From The Sun and the rise of Thatcher to Fox News and the war on terror, we have been living in Rupert Murdoch’s Trance since the late seventies. This book lets us in to all the answers hidden behind the man who owns the news.

“A MAN FOR OUR TIME.”



Michael Wolff gives us an insight to the world of media and news world, and the man who is all behind it. If you are studying media here at one of our centres and interested in how it all evolved, this is the book for you.

“CHARMING AND RELENTLESS.”






Michael Wolff describes Murdoch as a Machiavellian titan; overbearing, but loving farther; love-struck husband (of a woman 40 years his junior); and the most cynical and brilliant newsman who has ever lived.

“ONE OF THE GREATEST DEAL-MAKERS ALIVE”
