MySpace co-founder
Chris DeWolfe may not be
your friend (that's the other co-founder,
Tom Anderson), but he does hold a few powerful people near-and-dear. Including,
Portfolio reports,
Wendi Deng, the wife of
News Corp. owner
Rupert Murdoch.
Portfolio surmises that DeWolfe's friendship with Deng might help convince her husband to meet DeWolfe and Anderson's
$50M compensation demand to stick around for another year. We think that DeWolfe has the wrong target in mind. While it might be easier for him to spend time with Deng — they're both
on the board of MySpace China — we think he should be buttering up News Corp heir apparent
Peter Chernin, who recent fillings revealed to be the
highest paid person at News Corp.
