Abstract:
	
		| 
 Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation (News Corp) has evolved 
into a global media conglomerate. The company owns approximately one third of 
newspapers and BSkyB (satellite television) in Britain. It also owns the Fox 
Entertainment Group that makes movies under the name 20th Century Fox and the 
television programmes under The Fox Network. News Corp's television reach 
extends to millions of homes worldwide. While News Corp is doing well, there are 
some major concerns for the company. One is the recent acquisition of DirecTV 
from General Motors. Another is the heavy dependence on Murdoch for key 
strategic decisions.
