Such a network and its affiliated stations would provide a worldwide outlet for Murdoch's Fox Broadcasting television programs and his 20th Century Fox films, which include a library of more than 2,000 titles ranging from All About Eve and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes to the Star Wars trilogy and Home Alone. The satellite system would also help Murdoch, whose Fox Network is planning to launch a hip cable channel called FX next year, muscle his way into what he sees as the entrenched world of American cable TV, dominated by operators like Denver-based Tele-Communications Inc. and Time...

Last January he began a six-month leave from the New Republic, which he once edited and where he had been writing the TRB column, to write a book. But he has continued to write for TIME and appear on CNN's Crossfire program...
