Amazing what that “minority” percentage ownership of
Fox News by the house of Saud can control, isn’t it?

Kingdom Holding Company holds a significant amount of
News Corp. Stock, the Parent Company to Fox News

So, at first inspection, the most easily obtainable number is less than 20%.
Your link shows 1% ownership of Newscorp.

There are documented instances where Fox news wanted to run a program or news item which could be considered disparaging to the Saudis, a phone call was made and the story squashed.

This is the alleged basis of why Glenn Beck really left Fox.

Who controls the news?
