The move comes as News Corporation is attempting to acquire the 61pc it does
|
|
not already own of satellite broadcaster BSkyB, where James Murdoch is also
|
|
chairman.
|
|
|
|
James Murdoch has been appointed deputy chief operating officer and chairman
|
|
and chief executive, International. He is currently based in London as
|
|
chairman and chief executive, Europe and Asia.
|
|
|
|
The new role, which will see him work more closely with his father, suggests
|
|
that Rupert Murdoch has chosen who will succeed him at the helm of the
|
|
influential media group behind _The Times_ and _Wall Street Journal
|
|
_newspapers and 20th Century Fox.
|
|
|
|
Mr Murdoch's planned takeover of daughter Elisabeth Murdoch's Shine Group has
|
|
led to some speculation in recent weeks that Ms Murdoch could be a potential
|
|
successor.
|
|
|
|
News Corp said that Mr Murdoch's new role will see him "collaborating with
|
|
senior leaders to develop and execute strategies and plans that strengthen and
|
|
further evolve businesses, extend brands, and build new franchises".
