Inside the Murdochs’ Succession Drama
- Prudence and Elisabeth Murdoch oppose Lachlan's decision to appoint Tony Abbott to the Fox board, with Prudence calling him ghastly and Elisabeth expressing a clear dissent if she had control.
- The Murdoch family has approximately 40% of voting rights in Fox and News Corp, despite owning only 14%, due to Rupert's control of super shares.
- Control of the family trust will shift after Rupert's death or in 2030, allowing James, Prudence, and Elisabeth to make their own decisions about the businesses.
- Lachlan and Rupert are appealing a court decision that revoked their attempts to maintain control of the trust, amid a fierce internal family battle over leadership.
