Rupert Murdoch Wednesday former supermodel Jerry Hall in a low-key ceremony in central London on Friday, the fourth marriage for the media mogul. Britain’s newspaper industry was famously based on Fleet Street until Murdoch moved his printing presses to east London in the 1980 to fight the powerful printers’ unions, with other print media companies soon following suit. Murdoch has six children from three previous marriages, while Hall has four with her ex-partner Mick Jagger. They are expected to hold another ceremony at a church in the city Saturday.
