Mr Johnson's visit to Mr Murdoch - - came just over a week before Liz Truss resigned as UK Prime Minister . Her resignation sparked a leadership race which saw Mr Johnson win support to run, before dramatically withdrawing from The Contest .
It is not the First Time Mr Johnson and Mr Murdoch have met. The pair held several meetings while Mr Johnson was Prime Minister - - and also met when Mr Johnson was mayor of London.
Mr Murdoch's News Corp owns several newspapers including the Wall Street Journal in the US, and The Sun and The Times in the UK.
For decades The Billionaire was a force in politics at the highest level. But after the phone-hacking scandal and the closure of The News of The World in 2011, his political allies deserted him and his reputation was knocked.
However his influence began to rise again when political hopefuls such as Nigel Farage and former US President Donald Trump approached Mr Murdoch for help.
This Week , news outlets that are part of Mr Murdoch's empire appeared to ditch support for Mr Trump. On Tuesday night, Fox News cut away during Trump's announcement of his new White House campaign, the Wall Street Journal editorial board called Trump a " loser" and the New York Post covered The News with the headline: " Florida Man Makes Announcement".
