Wolff targets media owners in his book, as he tries to be one himself.
There's no-one busier in US media right now than Michael Wolff.
The magazine columnist is bidding to buy New York magazine with the Interpublic Group's Donny Deutsch, he's in negotiations about starting his own chatshow on Fox News Channel and he's promoting his new book, Autumn of the Moguls (Harper Business).
