How Fox News and Rupert Murdoch have destroyed America
Here are my thoughts on yesterday’s news that Rupert Murdoch, chairman of the conservative media empire that owns Fox News, acknowledged in a deposition that several hosts for his networks promoted the false narrative that the 2020 election was stolen from former President Donald J. Trump. Murdoch said that he could have stopped them, but didn’t. I discuss how Fox News' propaganda operation led to the insurrection on January 6th and the destructive effect it has had on our democracy:
I am so glad I’m a subscriber to Steve’s writing and commentary. It is prescient, unvarnished, and appropriately scathing. As a lifelong Democrat, it is interesting to me that it is two Republicans - Steve Schmidt and Jennifer Rubin at WAPO- who are doing the best, most prolific writing to inform us of this continued and relentless threat to our democracy. I thank them both, and Steve in particular, for their constant warning to protect our democracy.
Shame on Fox News, Murdoch should lose his citizenship & FCC license! Hateful man, all about $
