How’s ‘Boar on the Floor’ going James?

On a purely intellectual basis, McCay Coppins is a voluble bore. Kind of obtuse, smarmy, might be a decent person. His niche is my bane.

When does Trump pardon Alex Murdaugh?

jimclausen.bsky.social•43 days ago

I read this last night.
10X more interesting than all the tabloid on display @ checkout.

BTW, many of those rags are Murdoch's.

I've no legal expertise, and don't know whether legal appeals would continue anyway, but, fingers crossed, Keith R. Murdoch meets his end before any reversal of the December decision occurs.

Riveting story

I just became a subscriber. Thank you for all that you do.

Many would argue, probably correctly, that Murdoch single-handedly has caused more harm to western democracy and truth that any other individual

When Rupert finally croaks, he should be remembered as a loathsome lowlife who foisted a fascist conman upon the world just so he could report the story.

Does anyone care about this right now?

Ok. Now I'm finally going to subscribe

Rupert is demented. Nothing else can explain his perverse views.

salsantamaura.bsky.social•43 days ago

It's not fair to the merely demented characterizing Keith R. Murdoch that way. He's evil.

A must read story from @mckaycoppins.bsky.social, bravo! A detailed, yet tragic story of the Murdoch family. Thank you James for your honesty and thoughtfulness given the sensitivity of the subject matter. Another ray of hope for our democracy!
