If Mr. Murdoch or his employees committed a crime, then by all means they should receive the approprate punishment.
I am not sure though his empire would necessarliy fall though. News corp would take some damage, no doubt, but Fox News for all its foibles easily beats its direct competitors, and the Wall Street Journal has markedly improved since he bought it a couple of years ago, His operation is vast and his multiple BODs would keep running things.
His wife, though, wow, she was on that pie thrower like a spider monkey.
