Cecil Harmsworth King (1901–1987) was a prominent British newspaper executive known for his role as Chairman of the Daily Mirror, Sunday Pictorial, and the International Publishing Corporation. Educated at Winchester College and Oxford, King became influential in shaping the British press, notably leading the Daily Mirror to unprecedented circulation heights. Despite his impact, he faced controversy in 1968 for attempting to challenge the government by overriding editorial independence.
