Why would I spend $5 billion for something in order to wreck it?

I'm not a knee-jerk conservative. I passionately believe in free markets and less government, but not to the point of being a libertarian.

I think we've been an agent for change, everywhere, and I think change frightens people. They're going nicely in what seems like a settled industry, and someone comes in and says "I can do this better. It doesn't matter how nice that other one is." That's one of the distinguishing points of our acquisitions.

If you want to judge my thinking, look at The Sun.

I have never asked a prime minister for anything.

People are reading news for free on the web, that's got to change.

The world is changing very fast. Big will not beat small anymore. It will be the fast beating the slow.
