A documentary about Rupert Murdoch is to be funded by Screen Austraia, the organisation has revealed.
The taxpayer funded body said that the doco – titled Murdoch – will screen in SBS and on the UK’s biggest commercial broadcaster ITV.
Produced by Electric Pictures, according to the synopsis, the two-part series will be “the definitive account of how one man changed the face of the media and became one of the wealthiest, most powerful and enigmatic figures in the world.”
Electric Pictures was the production company that won a best documentary AACTA award earlier this year for Jandamarra’s War.
