In a Fox News interview, Trump revealed that the Murdoch family and Michael Dell, founder of Dell Technologies, will join the TikTok acquisition consortium.

Fox Corporation, under Murdoch, is negotiating investment terms, with funding not routed through family private accounts or News Corp. Dell has been involved in negotiations for over three months. Insiders indicate that while no agreement has been signed, all parties remain optimistic about the deal's prospects.

Oracle founder Larry Ellison confirmed his participation in the investor group. The consortium plans to pool funds with several undisclosed high-profile figures, with Trump describing the acquisition scale as "a lot of money."

Notably, this is not a traditional tech acquisition. The combination of Murdoch's media influence and Dell's hardware expertise suggests TikTok may face future business splits or strategic shifts. No negotiating party has disclosed specific acquisition ratios or valuation details.
