Murdoch's Ink: The Rise of a Fleet Street Empire

Rupert Murdoch's journey from an Adelaide newspaper inheritance to the heart of British media power spans the 1950s to the 2010s: buying the News of the World and The Sun, remaking Fleet Street with tabloid populism, breaking the print unions at Wapping, expanding into satellite television, and wielding political influence that culminated in the phone-hacking scandal.
