Rupert Murdoch and News Corp have frequently faced criticism for their climate change stance and support for the fossil fuel industry. Critics argue that Murdoch's Australian media outlets, such as The Australian and Sky News Australia, often promote views favourable to fossil fuel interests, aligning with Murdoch's personal and business investments in the energy sector.

News Corp's editorial stance typically reflects scepticism towards climate change science and endorses policies favouring the fossil fuel industry, which can influence public opinion and electoral outcomes. Murdoch's sway over political figures and parties further impacts policy decisions that align with his business interests.

While direct causation is difficult to prove, the alignment of News Corp's editorial policies with Murdoch's financial interests in fossil fuels suggests that his media empire might be used to support and protect these investments. This strategic move could ensure a favourable environment for fossil fuels in Australia.
