RUPERT MURDOCH: "I have nothing to say at this stage.”
Rupert Murdoch was born in Australia. He became a citizen of the United States in nineteen eighty-five so he could buy American television stations. His father, Keith Murdoch, was a famous World War One reporter who later led an Australian newspaper group. After his father died, the younger Murdoch took control of the two newspapers that his father owned.
Today, he is a media "colossus," says Ivor Gaber, a journalism professor at London's City University.
IVOR GABER: "He doesn't control the media in every country but it's very difficult to travel to most parts of this world without encountering a Rupert Murdoch media product."
And that's IN THE NEWS in VOA Special English. I'm Steve Ember.
