Details Scarce on Bono's Appearance at Murdoch Event
Bono was one of the luminaries who attended Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. conference in Pebble Beach, California, this past weekend. Few details have come out about the event, with the exception of reports that Murdoch has offered Tony Blair a job with News Corp. once his term as prime minister ends.
Below is a report from the Monterey County Herald on the "super-secret conference."
The media blackout has been so intense that even the local Fox News affiliate has only been granted fleeting access to Murdoch and Bono. Murdoch's News Corp. is the parent company of Fox News, as well as the New York Post, MySpace.com and dozens of other businesses and subsidiaries.
Interference.com will be on the look-out for any updates on what Bono talked about with conference attendees. If you find any information, please let us know.
Update
The World Socialist Web Site has this tiny snippet about the topic of Bono's speech:
Indeed, the title of U2 singer Bono’s talk on his campaign against poverty and AIDS—“The Power of One”—is a more fitting description of the gathering in California.
Update
A blurb about Bono at the event from The Pine Cone:
NICOLE KIDMAN on a treadmill, looking spiffy in black workout clothes, no makeup and her hair in a ponytail. Bill Clinton checking into his hotel after midnight and warmly greeting the staff on the late shift. Bono being tightly hugged by an unnecessarily zealous, but very pretty, female fan. Tony Blair casually conversing with Maria Shriver on a cool summer evening as a beautiful sunset decorated Asilomar Beach in the background.
Those were some of the spontaneous sights enjoyed this week around Del Monte Forest as Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation held its mega-conference, “Imagining the Future,” under a tent in the parking lot at the Inn at Spanish Bay. The formal agenda at the invitation-only business meetings included remarks by Blair on Sunday, John McCain Monday, Al Gore Tuesday, Shimon Peres Wednesday and Clinton on Thursday.
