JD Vance flew to Montana for secret meeting with Rupert Murdoch and Fox News executives
(www.independent.co.uk)
Rupert Murdoch is the most powerful Billionaire in the United States.
He owns Fox News, The Wall Street Journal and The New York Post
He was spotted at the Republican Convention in Milwaukee:
Yet most americans have never heard of him... 😔
How big of a rock do you have to live under to NOT know who Rupert Murdock is? He has been in the news pretty much every week for months, if not longer.
You underestimate how ignorant the average person is capable of being.
For example:
I work with blue collar people. Vast majority of them definitely have no idea who Murdoch is. Those same people don't know the bias of the wsj or probably what the New York post is.
Some of them vote. They never ever check sources or try to understand forces behind it.
It's fun though seeing how talking points get filtered down through sources they see.
if they dont know who rupert is, they wont know who lachlan who is currently the one controlling fox(and not NEWS CORP). Its funny i only ever see them qoute the fox and right wing talking head out of context.
his voters dont know, rupert or lachlan i bet.
I know who he is, but I can’t say that information has ever provided me any benefit.
he looks like a mummy here thats been ressurected by his russian necromancer.
I just played Deathloop, a game where you have to kill 8 people in a single day that repeats until you get it right. So I read this and thought, "Shit, they all get together for a meeting? Well that's easy."
On behalf of the regime or in conspiracy against the regime?
Only against if he doesn't get his cut
Yes
This is really horrifying but also not surprising.
Murdoch hates Trump, but maybe he’s ok with project 2025 and the actual administration of Miller and Vance?
murdoch has to play nice with trump, because Putin works with murdoch(they have been seen together) to disseminate which kind of propaganda of the week.
Lachlan is more extreme than murdoch by the way. hence why rupert is trying to give his inheritence to him instead of the other children, who do not like his far-right wing views.
Well. Not all of the views.
So basically, a heads up on where propaganda will need to go.
i can't tell if his face is edited here too or if he actually looks like that.
the d quit talking to faux in previous episodes. script glitch.
