Things are
turning sour:
Michael Wolff, Murdoch biographer and author of The Man Who Owns the News, said it was now inevitable that James Murdoch would leave. "James will probably go by himself, that's what everybody will be waiting for. I wonder too if Lachlan will step off the board. But could this drag on for another year? Yes." Wolff said the size of the vote against Murdoch's son had created "a very difficult family moment."
Incidentally, Wolff's biography of Murdoch –
The Man Who Owns the News – is excellent. You ought to read it.
