His father, Sir Keith Murdoch, had been a reporter, editor, and senior executive of the "Herald" and "Weekly Times" newspaper publishing company, covering all Australian states except New South Wales. After his father's death in 1952, Murdoch declined to join his late father's registered public company and created his own private company, News Limited.
