"There are views I really disagree with on Fox." //
James Murdoch, son of media mogul Rupert Murdoch, resigned from the board of News Corp, the publishing arm of daddy’s media empire on Friday, citing “disagreement over certain editorial material.”
Translation: Rupert’s left-wing son can’t handle “fair and balanced” news that isn’t all left-wing, all the time.
News Corp is the parent company of the Wall Street Journal and the New York Post, and is one of two media companies owned by the Murdoch family. The second company, Fox Corporation, owns Fox News, Fox Business and the Fox television network.
During a 2019 interview with The New Yorker, Murdoch was clear about his disdain for Fox News news.
“There are views I really disagree with on Fox,” he said, presumably referring the views of on-air personalities such as Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Jessies Watters, Lou Dobbs, and others. James’s older brother, Lachlan, 49, has run Fox Corporation since 2018.
