Rupert Murdoch
Media mogul
Many of the titles and channels owned by Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation and Twenty-First Century Fox have, for the most part, covered stories relating to Jews and Israel in a fair manner. Murdoch has described himself as an ardent Zionist. A number of major Jewish organizations have recognized his achievements, including the American Jewish Committee (AJC), the Anti-Defamation League, and the Museum of Jewish Heritage. At a recent Israeli charity dinner, Murdoch told the audience: “You know as I do that as Israel goes, so goes … our morality and our very existence as freedom-loving citizens of the world.”
