Murdoch’s media arm swaps title
The new identity and logo have been introduced ahead of this weekend’s restructuring of Rupert Murdoch’s media empire, when News Corporation’s entertainment interests will be hived off from the publishing side.
The rebranding exercise follows a painful period for News International after the phone-hacking scandal and closure of the News of the World.

Hide AdNews Corp, which includes News UK, will be listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange from tomorrow as a separate publishing and newspaper business. The entertainment business will trade under the name 21st Century Fox. News UK said the name and logo provided “a more coherent and logical identity for the new parent company across the globe”.
