In 1902, journalist Clarence Barron purchased the control of the company for $130,000. After Barron's death in 1928, just one short year before the Great Depression in 1929, the stock market crashed greatly. The Bancroft family, Barron's descendants, held onto the reigns of the company until 2007.  It is then when Rupert Murdoch took control of The Wall Street Journal as its CEO. After the Great Depression, The Wall Street Journal took a different take on its course as the United States was able to recover from the Great Depression. Bernard Kilgore was the managing director of The Wall Street Journal in 1941 and was later promoted as the publication's CEO in 1945.
