media tycoon
Broadcasting empire builder
A media tycoon is someone who has built or controls a powerful empire of news outlets, entertainment companies, or communications platforms.
The term carries connotations of vast wealth and influence over public discourse: Rupert Murdoch is perhaps the archetypal media tycoon.
Like other tycoons, they're seen as wielding disproportionate power in their industry.
