Rupert Murdoch had a management retreat in California a few days ago.

In an excellent piece today about the founder of News Corporation, Richard Siklos includes this great final paragraph:

As he wrapped up the conference in Monterey last Sunday, he looked out at his employees and said: “You all think I’m too old.” Pausing for a beat, he added: “I think you’re too old.”

Yes, he is right:

This industry has too many old people around today.

But Murdoch is not one of them.
