Fox Scion James Murdoch and Wife Give $1.23 Million to Biden Campaign

33

James Murdoch departed Fox in March. But it is clear that he did extensive damage before that. Fox News has been in steep decline for years, with only Hannity and Tucker Carlson holding the line against the network becoming just another leftist enemedia propaganda outlet, pumping out disinformation in a desperate attempt to protect the deep state swamp and discredit and destroy President Trump. James Murdoch at the head of Fox News was like making Adolf Hitler Prime Minister of Great Britain during World War II. Now it is clear, with the news of these contributions to Biden and Mayor Pete, why Fox is just a shadow of its former self. It’s also an object lesson in the futility of appeasement: despite its submission, the leftist media establishment hates Fox with the same burning intensity it always had for the network.

“James Murdoch, Wife Give $1.23 Million to Biden Campaign,” by Joshua Caplan, Breitbart, July 16, 2020:

James Murdoch, the son of billionaire and Fox Corporation founder Rupert Murdoch, and his wife Kathryn have donated $1.23 million to former Vice President Joe Biden’s presidential campaign, according to filings.

New York Times reporter Kenneth Vogel, citing Federal Election Commission (FEC) receipts, first highlighted James and Kathryn Murdoch gave $615,000 each last month to the Biden Victory Fund, a joint fundraising effort between the Biden campaign, the Democrat National Committee (DNC), and state parties.

Murdoch, previously CEO of 21st Century Fox, is known as a political centrist compared to his more conservative brother, Lachlan Murdoch. Since departing the Fox empire in March, Murdoch launched the investment group Lupa Systems.

Murdoch’s million-dollar donation to the Biden campaign isn’t the first contribution he’s made during the 2020 presidential election. In April, Murdoch gave $2,800 to former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg’s campaign, the largest amount possible to a primary candidate. Appearing at Vanity Fair’s New Establishment summit in October, Murdoch declared Buttigieg has the “composure, character, thoughtfulness, courage to handle some of the hardest challenges that we have.”

During the same discussion, Murdoch admitted that he no longer watches Fox News and lamented the departure of longtime anchor Shepard Smith…

They’ve purged two of the natural conservatives, two of the best reasons to watch FOX, Ed Henry and Trish Regan.
Now they seem to be pushing one of the most distasteful thugs on TV anywhere — Isaiah Washington! — LOL!!!, if you can believe that — on the PAY network!!! They want you to PAY for the FOX programming with Isaiah Washington’s — wait for it — COOKING SHOW!!! The unworthy heirs are never smart enough or tough enough to carry on the success of the original, Rupert, who built the business. Too soft a life, never faced with ultimate accountability, always Daddy’s money there to clean up the mess, like George W Bush, and we’re paying dearly for the vast failures of that dope.

I would prefer Trish and Diamond and Silk. Lots of people were telling me that Ed Henry was going over to the left in a big way.

They 2 sons are worthless scum, just like Biden’s son(Where’s Hunter?) and Pelosi’s son. They might all be in the ground if it wasn’t for their rich(and in the case of Biden and Pelosi) Corrupt criminal parents.

Big difference between twenty-eight hundy and One Million Two Hundred Thirty Thousand U.S. Yankee Greenback Dollars.

Why was that trifling sum ($2800.00) even mentioned?

I just want to ax you.
If you walked into a restaurant and you saw Isaiah Washington working in the kitchen, would you eat there?
Isaiah Washington, from Grey’s Anatomy.
Seething rage.
A cooking show.
On Fox Nation.
Pay channel.
I am just axing you.

I wouldn’t recognize Isaiah Washington if I came across him cooking in a restaurant or anywhere else. I don’t watch Grey’s Anatomy.

Trump was an heir to a fortune in the making.
That’s different than a fortune, like Bush and Murdock.
Trump shouldered all the responsibility himself to build it into a fortune.
Then he willingly offered to apply everything he learned and all his experience and brilliance to building our country.
Too bad he has so many enemy collaborators in Congress, the media and the courts to fend off at every turn.
Keep fighting for America!
It’s not over till it’s over!

I thought there were limits on what individuals could give to a campaign to limit influence. You mean campaign finance reform was a fraud and only a means to legalize bribery? Thank you dead John McCain.

It sounds like that James Murdoch is not only liberal but is queer to boot. What is he doing trying to run a conservative media outlet? The recent hires are degrading the organization. It is good that he is one.

What he’s trying to do is run Fox into the ground….and he’s succeeding.

If you read from the top, He Isn’t There. He works for Viacom. He actually left earlier than the article has down. His Father, who should have cut off his ignorant loser sons years ago, had Iger from Disney get him a job as part of the deal between Disney and FOX. This one is a lunatic. His older brother(who is an alt left schmuck also) wants to turn FOXNEWS into CNN, but still make money while he is doing it. This radical douche and the 2 wives want to shut down FOXNEWS, Business News and the radio stations right now. They’re not interested in money. They don’t want Republicans to be able to get their news anywhere. They are Soros type of radical. It is horrible, and Rupert did a really crappy job of raising his kids. They are as stupid as Biden’s son and Pelosi’s son. Total losers.

“James Murdoch, Wife Give $1.23 Million to Biden Campaign,”…

and that folks is Systemic Racism in America

… Americans don’t burn, loot, and murder by themselves …

… The Left needs brainwashed, violent zombies, anti-American Pod People, drones(D), and foreign criminals …

… to do the burning, looting, and murdering …

Americans won’t do …

Stop Systemic Racism … Defund the Demokkkrats … and prosecute the Left’s criminal thugs!

You also. The younger douchebag actually left a lot earlier, but the Father got him out of there because the older, alt left POS son wants to turn FOXNEWS into CNN and make money doing it. the Younger one and the trophy whores just want to shut the whole thing down, lock stock and barrel. They’ve always wanted to do that. They don’t ewant there to be any Republican news stations. That’s why the Father needed to sell it to a Conservative or Republican group. I don’t know if he tried to do that.

Agreed. Newsmax is creating Fox’s replacement conservative news site simply by picking up their castoffs, much the same way as an NFL team used to build winners with the supplemental draft.

Except in the supplemental draft, you use to lose draft picks. Newsmax isn’t losing anything. Good for them. OAN needs to open up the wallets and start getting some of the really good people when they become available.

I don’t think that’s the word(but it could be.) Lunatics probably describe the trophy wives and the Younger son to a “T.” As I said above, this douchebag and the trophy hores aren’t interested in turning FOXNEWS into CNN over a short period of time. They want to shut the whole thing down NOW. They don’t want Republicans to be able to get their news from anywhere on FOXNEWS anything. They are Soros type of crazy lunatics.

The Murdoch boys, plus Paul Ryan, have significantly transformed Fox into their version of Fake News/MSM, but, Fox still has Ingraham, Dobbs and Liz McDonald holding the fort with Tucker and Sean, so, all is not yet lost….I hope.
