These two moguls run huge media empires with what seems like very personal involvement. Rupert Murdoch's News Corp'B' (NYSE: NWS) is working his family into the picture, sometimes. However, Sumner Redstone, Chairman of Viacom (NYSE: VIA), is working his family out, always. He seems to have a trap door at the top of his empire, like a haunted house, or a not so fun-house. You work your way to the top and then a trap doors opens in the floor dropping you out.
Rupert seems to have a plan (see, Rupert Murdoch & Homer Simpson are winners -- look for sequels). Sumner seems to have a scheme as he is wheeling and dealing to improve the state of his vast holdings and taking no prisoners. But from all I have read, the company is treading water, having a success here and there, and then you get little things like Viacom's MTV, Nickelodeon facing challenges.
