Each year since 1994, Vanity Fair has anointed the new operation, 50 key figures of the information age. Earlier this year, we are extending the list of 100-100 Vanity Fair. The new additions to develop the new plant variety outside the Information Technology Nexus recent years. The new structure What is new, global, more integration and more representative of a movement of the band thinkers, owners, developers and buyers, the agenda in countless arenas. Inscribed on the list on the basis of a number of factors: wealth and influence obvious, but also intangible, such as vision footprint they leave, after having disappeared and, for the simple X-Factor.
The new facility is placed a clannish: You continue on the same boats on the same places-St. Barth’s, Martha’s Vineyard, southern France, the Croatian coast. They visit the same conferences and skiing on the same hills, Black Diamond. They buy their planes and boats and art for the same people. They face another in the same restaurant in the same private airline terminals. They eat together, sleepovers to another and holiday apartments. The rich buy houses only the trophy, then Trophy Trophy aircraft and the arts. The wealthiest up charitable foundations or create their own museum to house their collections. The madmen have the richest of all boats and even the trophy backup trophy boats and airplanes. Non-members range from the new plant are opinion leaders, style poseur and creator of the agenda. They are also worth a dinner companion, houseguests and boatmates.
Most seismic events in the new plant this year was certainly most of Warren Buffett’s pioneering decision to donate 31 billion dollars of his personal fortune to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. With this gesture, the bar was for other members of this group. Many members of Vanity Fair 100 gifts received inheritance, talent and tenacity. In the post-war time Warren Buffett future, the willingness to lend a helping hand by other philanthropic acts is an important factor. For future members of the new plant, which is the best revenge.
Global Conquest SCENE: It was a rough few years for large media companies, but the most adaptable Murdoch, 75, and his kingdom to oppose the opposition. On television, Fox News Channel Cable News dominates. On the large canvas, continuations stable for this type of film as a franchise Ice Age and X-Men are major figures of the Fund. And its satellite business to continue to prosper. But it is Murdoch’s Internet strategy has been that Newscorp reserve as bright. In August, Google agreed to pay News Corp. at least $ 900 million for the rights of publicity and control the functions of research for different sites, including the most popular teen social network MySpace, under the condition that the Web traffic, goals are reached. Love him or hate it, Murdoch’s position all media, the king is inviolable.
