News Corp’s board has declared its “full confidence” in chairman and chief executive Rupert Murdoch after a select committee said the media mogul was unfit to run a major international company.

News Corp has already dismissed the Murdoch claim as “unjustified and highly partisan” and yesterday its board released a statement backing the chairman.

"The board of directors of News Corporation met and announced its full confidence in Rupert Murdoch's fitness and support for his continuing to lead News Corporation into the future as its chairman and CEO,” it said.
