       The succession and the pivot. 
520    After having worked closely with the legendary media titan
       for thirty-five years, Irwin Stelzer is uniquely 
       positioned to evaluate Murdoch's media empire through 
       periods of rapid expansion and acquisitions, times of 
       financial and regulatory stress, and political battles in 
       Britain and America.  Stelzer helped plan important 
       company conclaves and assisted with Murdoch's speeches, at
       least one of which was responsible for having News Corp 
       barred by the Chinese regime from doing business in that 
       country.  Here are the philosophies on how Rupert 
       approaches and values deals, whether stalking the Wall 
       Street Journal for decades before pouncing, or 
       "overpaying" for everything from Fox Studios to NFL 
       rights; how he copes with regulatory constraints; how he 
       wins some-- the recent $66 billion sale to Disney-- and 
       loses some, most notably on MySpace.  The Murdoc method is
       the sum total of the management techniques that grew out 
       of Rupert's attitudes and conceptions, taking him from a 
       struggling newspaper in an out-of-the-way town in 
       Australia to running a globe-dominating media enterprise.
