News Corp's UK division confirms appointment of Rebekah Brooks as chief executive

News Corporation's UK division News UK has confirmed the appointment of Rebekah Brooks as its chief executive officer.

She returns to the company, having quit from the CEO position in 2011 — when the company was called News International — at the height of the News of the World phone hacking scandal. Brooks was cleared of all charges related to phone hacking.

Brooks replaces Mike Darcey, who is leaving the company after three years. It is not known if he has a job to go to.
