Tracing Murdoch's rise from an inherited Australian newspaper to the commanding heights of international publishing, television, and entertainment, Regan chronicles the tactical genius, relentless acquisitiveness, and calculated risk-taking that transformed a regional press baron into one of the world's most powerful and controversial media moguls.\n\nRegan writes with the sharp eye of an investigative journalist, dissecting the business strategies, political alliances, and corporate manoeuvres that defined Murdoch's ascent, illuminating how one man's vision — and hunger for influence — fundamentally altered the relationship between media, politics, and public opinion. Beyond the balance sheets and boardroom battles, the biography raises urgent questions about the concentration of media power and the responsibilities that accompany it. For anyone seeking to understand how modern news and entertainment came to be shaped by a single, indomitable will, this is an essential and deeply provocative read.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51022660993243,"sku":"2026100012377-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/cd244077-f0e6-47be-af90-d434bd172c1d.png?v=1793665455","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100012377-secondhand-rupert-murdoch-a-business-biography","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
