Keith Rupert Murdoch /ˈmɜːrdɒk/,AC, KCSG (born 11 March 1931) is an Australian-born American media proprietor. Murdoch became managing director of Australia's News Limited, inherited from his father Sir Keith Arthur Murdoch in 1952. He is the founder, chairman and CEO of global media holding company News Corporation, the world's second-largest media conglomerate, and its successors News Corp and 21st Century Fox after the conglomerate split on 28 June 2013.
In the 1950s and '60s, he acquired a number of newspapers in Australia and New Zealand, before expanding into the United Kingdom in 1969, taking over the News of the World followed closely by The Sun. He moved to New York City in 1974 to expand into the U.S. market, but retained interests in Australia and Britain. In 1981, he bought The Times, his first British broadsheet, and became a naturalised U.S. citizen in 1985 to satisfy the legal requirement for U.S. television ownership.
In 1986, keen to adopt newer electronic publishing technologies, he consolidated his UK printing operations in Wapping, causing bitter industrial disputes. His News Corporation acquired Twentieth Century Fox (1985), HarperCollins (1989) and The Wall Street Journal (2007). He formed the British broadcaster BSkyB in 1990, and during the 1990s expanded into Asian networks and South American television. By 2000, Murdoch's News Corporation owned over 800 companies in more than 50 countries with a net worth of over $5 billion.
Fox News Channel (FNC), also known as Fox News, is an American basic cable and satellite news television channel that is owned by the Fox Entertainment Group subsidiary of 21st Century Fox. As of February 2015, approximately 94,700,000 American households (81.4% of cable, satellite & telco customers) receive the Fox News Channel. The channel broadcasts primarily from studios at 1211 Avenue of the Americas, New York City, New York. .
The channel was created by Australian-American media mogul Rupert Murdoch, who hired former Republican Party media consultant and NBC executive Roger Ailes as its founding CEO. It launched on October 7, 1996, to 17 million cable subscribers. It grew during the late 1990s and 2000s to become the dominant cable news network in the United States.
Fox News Channel has been accused of biased reporting and promoting the Republican Party. The channel has also been cited as detrimental to the integrity of news overall. Fox News Channel employees have responded that news reporting operates independently of its opinion and entertainment, and have denied bias in news reporting.

New York is a state in the Northeastern United States and is the United States' 27th-most extensive, fourth-most populous, and seventh-most densely populated state. New York is bordered by New Jersey and Pennsylvania to the south and Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont to the east. The state has a maritime border in the Atlantic Ocean with Rhode Island, east of Long Island, as well as an international border with the Canadian provinces of Quebec to the north and Ontario to the west and north. The state of New York, with an estimated 19.8 million residents in 2015, is often referred to as New York State to distinguish it from New York City, the state's most populous city and its economic hub.
With an estimated population of nearly 8.5 million in 2014, New York City is the most populous city in the United States and the premier gateway for legal immigration to the United States. The New York City Metropolitan Area is one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world. New York City is a global city, exerting a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment, its fast pace defining the term New York minute. The home of the United Nations Headquarters, New York City is an important center for international diplomacy and has been described as the cultural and financial capital of the world, as well as the world's most economically powerful city. New York City makes up over 40% of the population of New York State. Two-thirds of the state's population lives in the New York City Metropolitan Area, and nearly 40% live on Long Island. Both the state and New York City were named for the 17th century Duke of York, future King James II of England. The next four most populous cities in the state are Buffalo, Rochester, Yonkers, and Syracuse, while the state capital is Albany.
News Corporation (officially referred to as New News Corp; trading as News Corp) is an American multinational mass media company, formed as a spin-off of the former News Corporation (as founded by Rupert Murdoch in 1979) focusing on newspapers and publishing. It is one of two companies which succeeded the former News Corporation, alongside 21st Century Fox—which consists of the old News Corporation's broadcasting and media properties, such as Fox Entertainment Group. The spin out was structured so that 21st Century Fox would be the legal successor and continuation of the old News Corporation, with the new News Corp being an entirely new company formed by a stock split.
On June 28, 2012, Rupert Murdoch announced that News Corporation's publishing operations would be spun off to form a new, publicly traded company. Murdoch stated that performing this split would "unlock the true value of both companies and their distinct assets, enabling investors to benefit from the separate strategic opportunities resulting from more focused management of each division." The move also came in the wake of a series of scandals that had damaged the reputation of multiple News Corporation-owned properties.Robert James Thomson, editor of The Wall Street Journal, was announced as the initial chief operating officer for the company; while Murdoch would not serve as CEO, he remained a chairman and a shareholder of the new News Corp. Thomson promised that the new company would "cultivate a start-up sensibility even though we already work for the world’s most established and prestigious diversified media and information services company", and would emphasize building new business models around its properties and content. The logo of the new News Corporation was unveiled at an investor presentation on May 28, 2013; the handwritten logo uses script based on Murdoch's own handwriting.

Jay Leno and David Letterman were both vying for the position, but Leno's tough manager Helen Kushnick got him the spot.

"Aziz Ansari, the US standup comedian and one of the stars of the sitcom Parks & Recreation, has launched a withering attack on Rupert Murdoch after the mogul’s comments about the Charlie Hebdo killings in Paris. Murdoch wrote in a tweet: “Maybe most Moslems peaceful, but until they recognize and destroy their growing jihadist cancer they must be held responsible.” Ansari sarcastically replied: “Rups can we get a step by step guide? How can my 60 year old parents in NC help destroy terrorist groups? Plz advise.” He followed up by tweeting: “Are you responsible for the evil shit all Christians do or just the insane amount of evil you yourself contribute to?” Other tweets included: .@rupertmurdoch, you're already a vaguely evil media conglomerate guy and THEN you're ALSO racist? FOR REAL?!...
What you are told in the mainstream media, is the exact same agenda being pushed by politicians and the New World Order. The proof can be seen in this video how just one of these megalomaniacs has traded power with different politicians through the DECADES. Bombarding the public with what they are told to believe, and for most that use the TV as trusted source of information - it works. They believe that to control the media is to control your opinion and even your mind. This is true because many take news as fact and pass it around.. promote it.. defend it.. with no thought that they are fuelling a political agenda and a pack of lies. Look at those at the top who control the media, they are the same breed as those who corrupt within governments and through secret societies. For decades, A...

Rupert Murdoch appears to have a loose hold on events at News Corporation as he suffers under questioning from Labour MP Tom Watson
Rupert Murdoch talks to Paul Kelly, Editor-at-Large, The Australian.
Rupert Murdoch interviewed prior to taking over the News of the World. Interesting points include his love of power, his claim that news proprietors have responsibility and the testimony that he sacks a lot of people. Of course his secretary is clear that he "suffered intensely with every staff severance he had to make". 200+ should be making him hurt then. Most importantly Murdoch is very clear when talking about newspaper responsibilities that they can be a great power for evil.

Rupert Murdoch and Jerry Hall followed up their nuptials with a blessing at St Bride's Church in Fleet Street, the Journalists’ Church, this morning. The location might seem ironic to those in the industry as it was Murdoch who in the '80s moved his printing presses to Wapping, thus ending a traditional relationship between the media and its 'spiritual home.'

After creating "Maniac Houseguest" and reaching near success with an accidental Oscar nomination, Mehul Godfry crafted his 87th film "Home Of Phobia" in an attempt to secure legendary status. At the time, the gay community were outraged by the film, claiming it was attempting to drill a hatred of homosexuals into the fabric of high-class 80's horror. In response, Atul Godfry (brother of Mehul and co-writer of HOP) told the public that "Home of Phobia is a film, not a news broadcast". This in turn brought the News industry into the argument, where people accused Fox News and CNN of anti-gay sympathising. In response, Rupert Murdoch claimed that he had no idea what "Home Of Phobia" was and certainly didn't encourage anyone to watch it. Mehul Godfry however, had other things to say about the ...
