7. The Murdocks, if they did not invent, they perfected Tabloid Journalism

Rupert's father, Keith, started his rise to fame/fortune as a war correspondent at Gallipoli where he wrote dispatches which were not entirely truthful about the unfolding disaster.

Later in the war, on the Western Front, he took it upon himself to try to influence the selection of the general who would command the Australian Corps. He was opposed to the army's choice-perhaps because their (successful) choice was Jewish?

After his return home he became the editor of the Melbourne Herald and began remaking the paper to focus on political controversies, celebrities and sensationalism. He also took ownership of the paper, and began acquiring other papers throughout the country

Rupert has continued the tradition which has richly rewarded the Murdoch family, and which has impoverished news reporting throughout the world.
