Show Notes

Matt Murray is editor-in-chief of the Wall Street Journal. Attracted by the “compelling drama” of business journalism, he joined the paper as a reporter in 1994, rising through the ranks over 25 years and eventually securing the top job in 2018. Today, the paper is the biggest-selling broadsheet in the US, with a print circulation of 900,000 and two million digital subscribers – the most in its history. In this in-depth interview, Matt reflects on his long career, discusses the balancing act of supporting investors while holding businesses to account - and reveals what it’s really like working for Rupert Murdoch.
