MySpace 将转型娱乐门户
in Wangtam, on July 13, 2009
新闻集团正计划将旗下社会化网站 MySpace 定位成一个获取娱乐和相关信息的网站。这家媒体巨头近期还采取了诸多其他举措，试图重振 MySpace ； MySpace 的阵地正在 Facebook 的压力下逐步流失。
新闻集团 CEO Murdoch 表示， MySpace 需要重新专注于成为一个娱乐门户网站。Murdoch 说，在他的设想中， MySpace 是一个人们寻找共同兴趣的网站。
Murdoch 是在本周美国太阳谷召开的媒体和科技高管年会间隙发表上述言论的。新闻集团旗下还拥有《华尔街日报》。

Murdoch 将率先试行向报纸网上读者收费
in Wangtam, on May 12, 2009
在新媒体的挑战下，许多美国报纸都面临生存危机。不过在某种程度上，传统报纸的窘境是由于它们提供报纸电子版的"免费午餐"而造成的。传媒大亨 Murdoch 日前宣布，其拥有的新闻集团要停止提供这样的"免费午餐"，要向报纸网站的读者收费。
Murdoch 说，新闻集团旗下一些较有竞争力的报纸将在 12 个月内开始试行向报纸网站读者收费。 Murdoch 拥有的报纸包括《华尔街日报》《纽约邮报》《伦敦时报》《太阳报》和《澳大利亚人报》等。目前，《华尔街日报》电子版已开始收取订阅费。

根据 华尔街日报的消息 ，Murdoch 的新闻集团计划以每股 60 美元的价格收购道琼斯，相当于作价50亿美元。支付形式可以是全部现金，或者是现金加股票。道琼斯目前是《华尔街日报》的发行商。新闻集团官方表示，这是一次"友好的"并购行动。受该消息影响，道琼斯股价上涨 50% 多，达到每股58美元。
但也有消息表明，道琼斯的控股家族 Bancroft 将投票反对新闻集团 50 亿美元的收购要约。因此，在评估该收购要约时，道琼斯将考虑该因素在内。这意味着，新闻集团能否如愿并购道琼斯还是个未知数。
