Brooks resigned in 2011 in the wake of the phone-hacking scandal. She was given a £16 million (€22 million) payoff by News Corp.
Murdoch closed the News of the World as a result of the controversy. Last year, Brooks was cleared of all charges.
News UK publishes of the Times, Sunday Times and the Sun. Brooks will replace Mike Darcey, who has been CEO since 2012.
In a statement released today, Robert Thomson, Chief Executive of News Corp, said: “Rebekah will lead a great team at News UK into the digital future, while maximising the influence and reach of our newspapers, which remain the most informative and successful in Britain and beyond.
Her expertise, excellence and leadership will be crucial as we work to extend our relationship with readers and advertisers, and develop our digital platforms to take full advantage of our brilliant journalism.
The organisation also announced that David Dinsmore will become News UK’s Chief Operating Officer and Tony Gallagher will replace him as Editor-in-Chief of The Sun, Britain’s largest selling daily newspaper.

Hopefully in this case it is a case of not able to reach communication. Devastating event. One thing I have noted is the different countries all working together to help the people. Long may of continue. I wonder will Daly and Wallace be protesting at the 2 US Boeing C-17 aircraft sent over to help in the effort if they refuel at Shannon?
