Barry Diller on Rupert Murdoch’s risk appetite: “I’m dealing with a crazy person”
Barry Diller reveals he was "fraudulently" brought into 20th Century Fox, which was near bankruptcy under owner Marvin Davis. His solution: bring in Rupert Murdoch. What followed was one of the most audacious gambles in media history — Murdoch agreed in five minutes to bet his entire company on launching a fourth television network. Diller also shares how Home Alone's box office revenue literally saved News Corp from collapse, and admits he introduced Murdoch to Roger Ailes — though he had nothing to do with Fox News. #fox #homealone #rupertmurdoch Want the full story behind the interview?
