New York/Xinhua: James Murdoch, son of media mogul Rupert Murdoch, has resigned from the board of directors of News Corporation, according to documents unveiled by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday.
James Murdoch informed the board in a brief letter that he resigned as he disagreed with "certain editorial content" published by the company and "certain other strategic decisions."
