Synopsis:

As chief executive of News International, Rupert Murdoch controls a global media empire which boasts some of the major players in newspapers, television, publishing and the movie business. In the English-speaking world, and increasingly in untapped but potentially lucrative markets such as China, he wields an influence as political kingmaker second to none.
