News Corp Australia’s ad slump hits global revenue
News Corp's Robert Thompson : "The value of IP in the age of AI is misconceived."
News Corp Australia’s advertising slowdown caused a US$7 million hit to the global business in its first quarterly results for 2026.
The media giant revealed that its News Media advertising revenue fell 4% year-on-year for the period ending 30 September 2025.
In its global results, posted on the ASX, News Corp directly attributed the US$7 million (A$10.8 million) drop to “lower print and digital advertising revenues at News Corp Australia.”
