Media exec that almost drowned Rupert Murdoch's dog and talked a man into stripping during a News Corp meeting, rolls out his second act

-SDH Either Rupert Murdoch has no sense of humor, or Stephen Chao -AKA- Mad Chao was just a waaay out there News Corp exec who knew no boundaries. Stephan Chao with his antics back in 1992 which got him fired would be a breath of fresh air to many companies today. He would probably add some color and character to young media companies. But almost drowning Rupert Murdoch's dog, that's just a little over the line for us. Anyway Chao after a long hiatus is back with a new website which he hopes to build into an educational alternative to YouTube. Now Chao can do all the showboating he wants, especially if the site is a hit. Wouldn't it be funny if Rupert Murdoch ends up investing in Wonderhowto.com?![]() The site, WonderHowTo.com, aggregates how-to videos, from the mundane (like “how to tie a tie” and “how to market your lawn care business in the winter”) to the strange (“how to do Criss Angel’s vanishing toothpick trick”) and the off-color (“how to train your cat to use the toilet” and beyond).
