Once again News Corporation is on the offensive against its old enemy, the BBC, to shrink this public service media.

Rupert Murdoch has stepped down from the board of companies behind U.K. newspapers, The Times, The Sunday Times, and The Sun.

News Corp., the media giant controlled by Rupert Murdoch, is mulling splitting itself into two companies, in a strategy, which may lessen concerns of U.K. regulators over the company’s control of the British media industry.

Rebekah Brooks, the former head of Rupert Murdoch’s British newspapers, and her husband, Charlie Brooks, were charged with conspiracy to obstruct justice during the phone-hacking inquiry.

Eight members of the government are to have special privileges to view evidence and put questions to witnesses in the phone-hacking inquiry, Lord Justice Leveson has ruled.

U.K. Culture department adviser resigns as Leveson Inquiry exposes close ties between Murdoch’s News Corp. and the current government.

Although James Murdoch gave over six hours of evidence to the Leveson Inquiry into Press Ethics on Tuesday, the real pressure is being brought to bear on U.K. Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt.

British lawyer Mark Lewis announced he will take legal action in the U.S. against News Corporation over the phone-hacking of three alleged victims in America.

James Murdoch resigned as chairman of BSkyB, citing that his role at the broadcaster “could become a lightning rod” amid phone hacking allegations.

Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher held secret talks with media mogul Rupert Murdoch in the early 1980s before he acquired The Times newspaper.

James Murdoch, son of Rupert Murdoch, resigned on Wednesday as executive chairman of News International.

News International said on Tuesday it settled seven lawsuits over alleged phone hacking by reporters at the now-shuttered News of the World tabloid.

News International in the UK is but a small part of News Corporation’s worldwide empire.

Rupert and James Murdoch, and Rebekah Brooks have agreed to appear before the UK Parliament’s Commons Culture, Media and Sport Committee concerning phone hacking scandal.

All major parties have backed Labour’s opposition day motion calling on Rupert Murdoch to withdraw his bid for control of BSkyB.
