Lachlan Murdoch becomes the successor to the media empire but for how long , Pt 3 Australian Story
In the third and final part of this Australian Story special on Lachlan Murdoch, journalist Paddy Manning explores how the fight to succeed Rupert Murdoch as heir to the family media empire ended up in a courtroom in Nevada, USA. He looks at the power struggle between Lachlan and his brother James following Lachlans return to the family business in 2014, Lachlans eventual rise to the top and the forces that led to the present acrimony. He also examines the role of Fox News in the 2020 US election and its explosive aftermath and looks ahead to the coming election in November, where Lachlan will get an opportunity to forge his legacy as head of the media empire. Mannings fascination with the Murdochs, and Lachlan in particular, has led to him becoming one of the worlds leading authorities on the family.
