Rupert Murdoch, the patriarch of the family, inherited a chain of Australian newspapers from his father, who was a war reporter turned publisher, in 1952. By 2000, Murdoch's News Corporation owned over 800 companies in more than 50 countries, with a net worth of over $5 billion. [81] Coulson resigned his post in 2011 and was later arrested and questioned on allegations of further criminal activity at the News of the World, specifically the phone hacking scandal.

And Nova Entertainment, the radio network that broadcasts Nova FM and Smooth FM across Australia, is a privately run company owned by Rupert Murdochs eldest son, Lachlan. Quoted in the same report, the UK's communication regulator argued that to prevent any media owner from gaining too much influence, it was important to ensure nobody amassed "a share of consumption that is so high that there is a risk that people are exposed to a narrow set of viewpoints". Wilding argues its hard to measure how much influence News Corp has, but he says the influence of media proprietors on public policy is well documented. [97][98] On 16 and 17 July, News International published two full-page apologies in many of Britain's national newspapers. Were sorry, this feature is currently unavailable. Other global mastheads such as The Guardian and Daily Mail employ large numbers of journalists and have established big online Australian audiences. Murdoch sold the house to his son James in 2018.[108]. [49][50], During the 1980s and early 1990s, Murdoch's publications were generally supportive of Britain's Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. [100], In testimony on 25 April, Murdoch did not deny the quote attributed to him by his former editor of The Sunday Times, Harold Evans: "I give instructions to my editors all round the world, why shouldn't I in London? [65] In February 1981, when Murdoch, already owner of The Sun and The News of the World, sought to buy The Times and The Sunday Times, Thatcher's government let his bid pass without referring it to the Monopolies and Mergers Commission, which was usual practice at the time. Ratings studies released in 2009 showed that the network was responsible for nine of the top ten programs in the "Cable News" category at that time. It was an issue that threatened to split the coalition government and open the way for the stronger Australian Labor Party to dominate Australian politics. His son Lachlan, who is co-chair of News Corp and runs the familys other US-focused business, Fox Corp, is said to share a similar world view. [196] His eldest child, Prudence MacLeod, was appointed on 28 January 2011 to the board of Times Newspapers Ltd, part of News International, which publishes The Times and The Sunday Times. Indeed, the ACCC report found the internet had increased "the plurality of journalism available online" and this had "reduc[ed] the impact of the high concentration in the traditional print (now print/online) sector".

"[In] a news environment defined by an abundance of information and potential news sources," it said, "there is a divergent view that the influence of outlets should not be defined purely by an examination of what is available and who owns them, but also by what audiences are actually consuming". Social media sites such as Facebook and tech giants such as Google have changed the way consumers read news, and the internet has allowed people to access articles from international news outlets. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission argued in its 2019 Digital Platforms Inquiry report that factors other than ownership were also important, and interpreted "choice" for news consumers in terms of "what is available in the market; what is distributed or made accessible to consumers; and what is consumed". Among its wholly-owned stations, ARN's top performer in each city reached between 22 per cent and 29 per cent of people aged 10+, which equated to more than 1 million unique listeners in both Melbourne and Sydney.

News Corp critics say owning the majority of Australias newspaper industry allows the Murdoch family to push their views out into the world, to mislead the public and ultimately shift perceptions of politicians and issues. Its radio investments are comparatively small compared to those in print, for example, in a market where ownership is relativelymore diverse. [143] The coalition, reflecting Murdoch and Bloomberg's own views, also advocates significant increases in legal immigration to the United States as a means of boosting America's sluggish economy and lowering unemployment.

Finally, there is the issue, beyond the scope of this fact file, of how reach within a particular geography might translate to political power at the local or national level.
