Dr Mumbo

Lachlan’s adventures to Rooty Hill and love of Minecraft videos

Dr Mumbo was surprised to hear Lachlan Murdoch speak of his multiple adventures to Rooty Hill RSL. The News Corp co-chair spoke fondly of the “Champion of the West” campaign run by The Daily Telegraph and NewsLocal titles – which Dr Mumbo takes to have meant the “Fair Go For The West’ campaign which launched in October.

Speaking today at Mumbrella360, Murdoch praised the campaign for pushing growth in Western Sydney and called it “a great legacy for The Daily Telegraph,” commending the paper’s editor Paul Whittaker as a key driver. “I think newspapers can play a very, very positive role in shaping the debate about our politics and our communities,” Murdoch said.

The co-chair of News Corp also revealed that while he is a self-confessed “media junkie” he also devotes his hours to watching Minecraft videos on YouTube with his sons.

“Anyone who has boys between the ages of eight and nine will watch a lot of Minecraft videos on YouTube. So I watch hours and hours of Minecraft videos on YouTube”, Murdoch told the packed room at the Hilton Hotel in Sydney.
