Lachlan Murdoch to head Fox TV

Lachlan Murdoch, the eldest soon of the media mogul Rupert Murdoch, will take over key responsibilities at US broadcasting network Fox, following the departure of chairman Sandy Grushow. The 35-station Fox network, 82 per cent owned by Murdoch's News Corp, made an estimated $400 million (£220m) profit last year on the strength of series such as American Idol and The Simpsons. But ratings have slumped after its most heavily-hyped shows bombed.Lachlan, who is 32, already oversees News Corp's newspaper publishing interests, including the New York Post, and will now take on added responsibilities at Fox
