LOS ANGELES, APR 16 (AP) - Media baron Rupert Murdoch has prostate cancer and will receive several weeks of radiation treatment, his company announced Saturday.

     

Murdoch, chairman of News Corp., learned last week after undergoing routine medical tests in Los Angeles that he had "low-grade" prostate cancer, said News Corp. spokesman Howard Rubenstein.

  

Doctors have told Murdoch the prognosis is very good. The Australia native, who is now a U.S. citizen, does not plan to change his work schedule, Rubenstein said.

  

Murdoch will begin brief radiation sessions in about a month. The treatment will last several weeks, and his doctors are confident it will eliminate the problem, Rubenstein said.

  

News Corp. is a worldwide communications company whose holdings in the United States include the Fox television network and the New York Post.
