That's true - in any other company, the CEO would just pout and say, I'm not contributing to your party or I'm not going to build my new factory in the UK, unless you reduce corporation tax or protect my patents or give me planning permission or whatever. Media tycoons can have a much more immediate effect because they are so-called "opinion formers"; they can blast the politicians with an immediate hate campaign and call it "news".
