December 23rd 2007 01:24
James Murdoch, the new head of News International, has vowed to "set the pace" in the newspaper industry and promised to decide on the new location for its headquarters "in the new year,” according to a report in the Guardian.
Murdoch, appointed on December 7 as chairman and chief executive, Europe and Asia, of News International parent company News Corporation, told staff at the newspaper publisher's Wapping headquarters in London that "in the business of ideas" few companies are as well-positioned as News International.
"The sea-change that we are lucky to be part of, this revolution that we can see in our readers, users and viewers' appetites with respect to their media consumption is enormously exciting," Murdoch told News International's in-house staff title, the News.
"I'm an optimist, for our print editions, for our online and mobile work and for the things we haven't thought of yet."
