News Corp Chief Executive Robert Thomson has commented on the
launch of Apple News+ in the United Kingdom and Australia and the
inclusion of News Corp publications from its News UK and News Corp
Australia businesses, including The Times and The Sunday Times in
the UK, and The Australian, The Daily Telegraph, the Herald Sun and
other publications in Australia. The Wall Street Journal partnered
with Apple News+ at its launch in March, and WSJ. Magazine joined
Apple News+ with the June/July 2019 issue.
“We are proud to partner globally with a company that truly
believes in the profundity of provenance and that there should be a
premium for premium journalism. Apple has acted positively,
honorably and decisively to change the digital landscape, while
other gatekeepers, such as Google, prefer hype and hypocrisy.”
