The Murdochs: Empire of Influence: Planet Fox airs Thursday 18 May 2023 on SBS.

Fox News and Donald Trump clashed during the 2016 presidential campaign, and the network was forced to face its viewers’ unwavering support for the Republican frontrunner.

Meanwhile, in an experiment in power sharing, Rupert Murdoch gives James and Lachlan equal control over the family business, which causes the company to go in opposite directions.

After Roger Ailes’s scandalous resignation as Fox News’s chairman over allegations of sexual harassment, Rupert assumes control of the network and reaches the pinnacle of his political influence following Trump’s unexpected victory.
