Murdoch cleared to buy 16 more papers

News Limited, the Australian division of Rupert Murdoch's media empire, has been cleared by the competition regulator to acquire 16 community papers from the Federal Publishing Co (FPC), even though no offer has been made. The decision follows the November deal in which News bought 25 magazines - including Vogue, Super Food Ideas, Delicious and Notebook - from FPC for $180m (£72m). If News buys FPC's papers they will be in addition to the 98 community newspapers it already owns across Australia. (Via The Australian)
