Murdoch miscellanea

Cruden Farm last Sunday - looking beautiful in early Summer ... a picnic by the lake was a pretty good way to spend a Sunday lunchtime. And Dame Elisabeth, Australia's only true royalty, was there signing autographs and generally spreading good cheer.

Just picked up a copy of The Man Who Owns the News, the new Michael Wolff biography of Rupert Murdoch. A Rupert biography by the author of Burn Rate - I'm expecting good things - and a very different tone to the 1997 Shawcross biography and to Chenoweth's Virtual Murdoch from early in the millenia.
