CNN —Lachlan Murdoch is stepping onto center stage.
On Wednesday, his father, Rupert Murdoch, officially stepped down as chairman of News Corporation, the print publishing arm of the billionaire mogul’s powerful media empire, marking the end of an era.
In his final remarks on Wednesday to the News Corporation board as chairman, Murdoch hit on a number of topics.
His profile rose when he took on the role of executive chairman in 2015 at what was then 21st Century Fox.
But Lachlan, whose Fox News has refrained from openly skewering the GOP frontrunner, has never made such comments in public.
