Murdoch's wife to boost Myspace in China

ACCORDING TO the Wall Street Journal, Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. is trying to bring his smash-hit MySpace property to China. In line for a place on the board: his wife Wendi Deng.

This isn't the first time that being in the family hasn't hurt the job prospects at the Dirty Digger's media empire, of course.

Murdoch's son Lachlan was widely panned for his management at telecoms group One.Tel. His brother, internet entrepreneur James Murdoch, is now CEO of BSkyB where sister Elisabeth was formerly an executive.

Perhaps Sky should consider remaking that popular sitcom Keep It In The Family? µ
