    Hardly, his control over the British media may be small by his list of assets, but what those companies do is staggering. Have a look at how he turned The Sun into a newspaper which sells over 3,154,881 copies daily.

    Same can be said with what he did with BSkyB, the company that operates the Sky Network. Even though the service can be accessed elsewhere in Europe (even though it's illegal), it's control over the British satellite TV is amazing.
