Rupert Murdoch is the most device figure in the most device figure in the recent history of the newspaper history of the uk newspaper industry. Discuss..

Rupert Murdoch is a massively known man in the media and also know by the phase 'the dirty digger' this nickname came about from the era when he brought 'The Sun' newspaper, changing the content to include lots of gossip, trivia and sometimes larger then life stories. However to oppose this, he is also the owner of 'The Times' newspaper which is full of real life going on's and very factual of the the world. These papers bring completely different views of the world with the sun running stories on characters in Britain's favourite soaps and the times informing the public on natural disasters thousands of miles away from home.

From just knowing this about Murdoch is apparent that he's a big figure in the media, newspapers in particular and he's on the internet too, myspace infact. He draws the attention of a massive range of market due to the sun being sold for just 20p where as the times being a couple of pounds.

I think he's had a really good inpact on the media as he brings us a range of stories that interest different people in many ways for what their interested in and what they want to read about.
