There, I ran into the father of a boy in my daughter’s class. He was also schlepping a younger child around, and as we got to talking, I learned that we had a lot
Celebration was in the air as Rupert Murdoch, his sons Lachlan and James and executives from his newspaper and broadcast empire took their seats in the private dining room at Hammersmith’s River Cafe.
As ever, the fashionable watering hole of London’s media elites was abuzz with lively mid-week chatter, but even among these sophisticates the presence of the three Murdochs together stilled conversations.
