| Summary: |
Over half a century Rupert Murdoch's business audacity and political shrewdness built one of the world's most powerful media empires. Now his dynasty is under threat due to shocking allegations of invasion of privacy and journalistic impropriety by employees at Murdoch's now defunct British newspaper "News of the World". Today, the owner of the "Wall Street Journal" and FOX News Channel is in the fight of his life for the future of his company, his reputation, and his fortune. |
