With the acquisition of Roku, Lachlan Murdoch has closed the largest transaction the Murdoch family has ever made. It is a significant step for a family whose name has long been tied to media. Talk of the deal will surely reach the island this season. Those who know him best have now described how he does business, and the picture is of an executive willing to make a very large move.

With reporting from Vanity Fair.
