The photo below shows Wendi Deng(in pink), the third wife of Rupert Murdoch, rushing to his defense during the hearing on the phone hacking and other improper journalistic practices carried out by News Corp staff - the man in the left corner was about to splash some foam on Rupert, but was restrained by a security woman (in grey) just in time, before Wendi gave him a big slap on the face. This was greatly cheered among the Chinese web audience.
图中穿粉红上衣的是邓文迪;英国国会为新闻公司偷窃私人电话内容和其他不当采稿手法询问她老公梅铎时有人攻击他,正被保安人员(灰色衣服)阻止时她起身打了暴徒一个耳光,这在网上引起一阵欢呼
邓文迪是个不好搞的人物,在广州认识一对块老年的美国夫妇资助她去读书,结果她嫁给那老头弄张绿卡,不久跟别人跑了,拿了耶鲁商学硕士后在香港新闻公司分部工作认识梅铎,增强他已有在中国发展的野心,同不断罗索要他多休息的老婆比,会拍马屁的年轻女孩当然可爱极了 不过自从梅铎娶了她后运一直不大好;在中国发展一直受阻,大儿子同他闹翻,二儿子现在面临官司危险,英国的生意恐怕会整个垮台,美国那边电台倾右有点不合时虽然没大问题,但买了华尔街日报是亏了钱又给人骂,而买 myspace 是大亏了;
也许他当初听二老婆话退休享福不娶三老婆多生孩子会快乐很多;看三老婆这么厉害,以后争夺家产还会有好戏看,老头以后这生是没太平日子过了
Wendi went to US as a student after meeting an old couple who visited Canton and getting their sponsorship; she soon married the guy to get a green card, then dumped him for a younger man (I believe they had one child) before going to Yale for an MBA and moving to HK to work for News Corp.
Murdoch has not had a smooth time since marrying her: when they met during his visits to Hongkong and he was thinking of going into China in a big way, both for commercial reasons, and (at least once) he said it would help to promote freedom and democracy. Wendi encouraged him in this, while his wife at the time, Anna, wanted him to take things easy because, which he did not like to hear, he was already old. The contrast between the two women was obvious, and he chose the one who made him feel young and forward looking. Anna agreed to a quick divorce but imposed the condition that the terms of the Murdoch family trust are not to be changed, which provide for the appointment of trustees by existing beneficiaries only. Thus, future dependents do not have that power.
In any case, the China venture has not worked out well, while the English business is now in serious trouble; he fell out with his oldest son lachlan, and the second son, in charge of the UK side for a past couple of years, faces legal jeopardy. The US broadcasting part of the company, now the main engine, is OK but has some image problem of being very right wing, but the purchase of Wall Street Journal resulted in considerable asset writedown as well as criticism., but the biggest financial loss was myspace.com
I do not know Deng's fury was merely outrage against violence, or it also contains frustrations of other kinds, nor whether Rupert would have been much happier person now if he had listened to Anna's advice. Given the kind of toughness she displayed, I dont think Murdoch is going to have a peaceful life in the future; the fight over inheritance is looming.
read about George Soros's girlfriend lawsuit ==>
I guess he is not exactly a believer in gender equality, despite his supposedly left leaning political views and involvement in charity; my curiosity question: why Rupert Murdoch simply took Wendi Deng as mistress and saved himself all the trouble of conceiving additional children, adding them as trust beneficiaries, etc?
I guess it is because of his supposedly conservative views and family values

Billionaire Soros' Ex-Girlfriend Files $50 Million Suit
Published: Thursday, 11 Aug 2011 | 9:17 AM ET By: Associated Press
The former girlfriend of billionaire financier George Soros has accused him of reneging on a promise to buy her an apartment in New York City and has filed at $50 million lawsuit.
The 28-year-old Brazilian soap opera star alleges that the 80-year-old Soros gave the $1.9 million apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan to a new girlfriend.
Soros' lawyer William Zabel tells the New York Post the lawsuit is frivolous, without merit and an attempt to extract money from his client.
Ferreyr's lawyer Robert Hantman says it will be up to the court to decide.
Ferreyr is attending Columbia University. The couple met in 2006.
