Murdoch: Optimistic About Print, Online, Mobile

The Guardian reports that in his first interview since his appointment on December 7 as chairman and chief executive, Europe and Asia, of News Corp, James Murdoch (son of Rupert) has told staff at the publisher’s London headquarters that “in the business of ideas” few companies are as well-positioned as News International.

“The sea-change that we are lucky to be part of, this revolution that we can see in our readers, users and viewers’ appetites with respect to their media consumption is enormously exciting,” Murdoch said in the article.

“I’m an optimist, for our print editions, for our online and mobile work and for the things we haven’t thought of yet.”
