Lachlan Murdoch and Rebekah Brooks

The once venerable The Australian, News Corp’s flagship publication, and where it began for Rupert Murdoch nationally, has found a resting place with Vogue.

In the seagull management style of billionaire scions, Lachlan Murdoch flew into Sydney last week to bandaid the leaking ship through a restructure – the common corporate euphemism for firing a lot of people.

He was accompanied by Rebekah Brooks, head of News UK, and famous for her involvement in the News International phone hacking scandal, from which she emerged scot-free in the eyes of an Old Bailey’s judge, albeit not so in the public perception. Nevertheless, Rupert rewarded her with a promotion, while her partner-in-hacking, Andrew Coulson, was sacked as David Cameron’s advisor and later went to jail for 18 months.

It is unclear what her role has been in the restructuring, although any discussion on journalism ethics is unlikely to have been on the agenda.
