Rupert Murdoch

The future of Fox News – and the rest of the Murdoch media empire – is at stake in a trial this week in Reno, Nevada. Rupert Murdoch wants to change his will to consolidate his eldest son’s power.

Washington Post CEO Will Lewis was accused in a London courtroom Monday of deceiving police who were investigating Rupert Murdoch's British tabloids when they were embroiled in a major scandal.

For the first time, the media titan was accused in court of knowing about a massive British tabloid-hacking scandal and helping to cover it up. The new leader of The Washington Post was named too.

Lawyers for Prince Harry and Hugh Grant have alleged in court that The Washington Post's next CEO helped the Murdochs clean up after illegal phone-hacking incidents at their British tabloids.

Ex-U.K. cabinet ministers allege Murdoch's tabloids hacked their voicemails for salacious scoops to try to intimidate them from blocking its takeover of a satellite TV firm.

Rupert Murdoch is stepping down as chair of his media empire, which includes Fox News, The Wall Street Journal and The New York Post. He is handing the reins to his son Lachlan.

Rupert Murdoch is in the headlines again, this time because of a lawsuit over Fox News' coverage of the 2020 election. It's not the only legal battle happening right now.

Under oath in a $1.6 billion defamation case, Murdoch says he wishes Fox News had been "stronger in denouncing" false claims of election fraud. Fox says the lawsuit threatens journalists' free speech.

The new CNN+ docuseries The Murdochs looks inside the Fox media empire and the family's behind-the-scenes in-fighting. Journalist Jim Rutenberg says the real-life drama rivals HBO's Succession.

Rupert Murdoch struck an alliance with President Trump early on, and Fox News has bolstered his presidency. With Joe Biden's victory, Fox is stepping warily to avoid alienating Trump supporters.
