Each is ranked by the shares voted on the item that the most managers of that type reported, shown as a share of the 572,300,000 shares outstanding at the time of that meeting.

Percentages above are of 572,300,000 shares outstanding, as reported by NEWS CORP. on its Form 10-Q dated September 30, 2023 (see the filing on EDGAR). This is the count contemporaneous with the 2023-2024 meeting, not today’s. Each holding is as of its own filing, which may be dated before or after the meeting.
Every figure above is derived from filings made with the US Securities and Exchange Commission: Form N-PX, in which registered funds disclose how they voted every proxy and institutional managers disclose their votes on executive pay (say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and golden parachutes), and Form 8-K Item 5.07, in which the company reports its own meeting results. Shares outstanding are taken from NEWS CORP.’s 10-Q dated September 30, 2023. This page is a static snapshot rebuilt weekly on November 1, 2026; a live search always shows the current data.
At NEWS CORP.'s shareholder meeting held November 15, 2023, in the 2023-2024 proxy season, 314 asset managers reported how they voted on 9 ballot items in their SEC Form N-PX filings, covering 3,662 separate fund positions. On the most widely held item on that ballot — Advisory Vote to Approve Executive Compensation. — FOR was 90% of the votes cast (FOR divided by FOR plus AGAINST, the conventional basis for proxy support; abstentions, broker non-votes and unvoted shares are excluded because none of them took a side), which is more than half. Whether the item was approved is for the filing to say; that statement has not been read for this item. Source: NEWS CORP.'s Form 8-K, Item 5.07, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 15, 2023.
