Ryan Tate · 03/02/10 06:10PMRupert Murdoch has announced that his lively banking newsletter The Wall Street Journal will by next month have a New York metro section. In full color! Every last urban rapscallion and common street urchin will soon have his own stipple headcut, just so Chairman Murdoch can get in on some of that local-print-media money that's all the rage lately. Harrrrumph.

Ryan Tate · 02/11/10 07:31PMOld-Man Murdoch Promises 'New Vigor and Strength' in 2010
Ryan Tate · 02/02/10 05:15PMRupert Murdoch sent out a memo today to reassure his News Corp. charges that, recession or not, their media conglomerate remains on top and is growing revenue. "Organically," which is heartening. Full memo after the jump. But don't let the hippie-dippie "organic" language fool you into thinking Murdoch is turning liberal; despite rumors of an internal feud, Murdoch still gives prominent praise to his right-tilting Fox News Channel and Wall Street Journal in the memo below, albeit after a nod to Avatar, a film about native peoples' struggle against mining interests. And he sounds as defiant as ever about free internet content, citing the Journal's effort at "instituting fair pricing for digital journalism" as a major accomplishment. He's about to turn 79, but Murdoch sounds like he's still very much in a hurry.
