Reading about the Rupert Murdoch family trust mess. My favorite anecdote is when Rupert’s lawyer cross-examined his son James, trying to get him to admit that his plans to make Fox News more honest would hurt its value because it’s business model was to just tell viewers what they wanted to hear. 👀
Comments
but consider the irony of former MSNBC viewers switching to Fox News, and vice versa.
😆😂
The thing is, MAGA republicans “think” Fox IS telling the truth, so actually telling the truth, wouldn’t be so bad.
America really needs the truth right now.
They came here from somewhere else extremely wealthy, and became more extremely wealthy. (Especially, Murdoch)
I would say their business model fuelled their wealth by telling people what Murdoch’s wanted the people to hear.”
FUCK MURDOCH
billionares are fucking nuts lol

Keep putting pressure on local,state, and federal representatives and senators, governors, schoolboards ect.(insert your reps/senators info and pic)
It’s the ultimate scam—convincing people that they’re being informed while ensuring they stay misinformed. And worst of all, it works. Keep viewers entertained, keep them angry, and keep them addicted. The truth is inconvenient, and hide behind “we’re just giving people what they want".
A Nevada Court nixed Rupert changing his Trust to favor Lachlan, thank God!

Kinda like watching Musk run roughshod over the new Cabinet that is now empty since the DOGEBAGS came to town.
By a lot
I saw an octopus open a jar once without being shown how.
That octopus is smarter than most people
The only one
Not to fawn, but I adore your take on the current state of affairs.
Lachlan spent years telling journalists he was much more liberal than his father. Then Lachlan hired Tucker Carlson
James was involved in the UK phone hacking scandal and is on the board of Tesla, supporting drug-addled Elon Musk.
Trust no Murdoch
