It is owned by Rupert Murdoch. I think, though, that FOX News might more have to do with Rupert Murdoch giving them an idea or overarching concept, and FOX running with it. I highly doubt he has much to do with the individual programming even if it follows his worldview.

But that is a good point that he might have his hands in other misleading news organizations around the world, he could have given the same goals to other news companies. I don't have the time to research such a large task but it would be interesting to find out.
