media mogul
Press empire builder
A media mogul is a powerful figure who owns or controls major media companies—newspapers, television networks, film studios, or digital platforms.
The term suggests vast influence over public information and entertainment: Rupert Murdoch is perhaps the most famous media mogul of the modern era.
Mogul itself derives from the Mughal emperors of India, implying imperial power in one's domain.
