Revenue Sources
PassUpon reviewing News Corporation's revenue streams, the company primarily generates income from digital real estate services, subscription-based content, news media, and book publishing. These core business activities are halal-compliant as they involve the exchange of real products and services. While some advertising revenue may come from companies selling non-halal products, this represents indirect and incidental exposure rather than direct involvement in haram activities.
