Murdoch unloads on Kerry, Obama, the left (Must Read-He Gets It!)
Polltico ^ | November 30, 2015 | Blake Hounshell

News Corp CEO Rupert Murdoch, in a discursive speech Monday evening, blasted Secretary of State John Kerry and attacked the left for creating an "identity crisis" that he charged has undermined American strength and fostered terrorism around the world.

And he drew a connection between U.S. foreign policy and domestic culture, arguing that “in recent years, there has been far too much institutionalization of grievance and victimhood."

Murdoch Sr, GETS IT! This speech is a must read. Another excerpt:

"Before delivering my modest message," Murdoch joked at the outset of his address accepting the Hudson Institute's Global Leadership Award, "I feel obliged to alert college students, progressive academics and all other deeply sensitive souls that these words may contain phrases and ideas that challenge your prejudices - in other words, I formally declare this room an 'unsafe space.'"

This is very good! I am very happily surprised. I think he is becoming a Trumpinator, no?

Blah, blah, blah.

Murdoch is an anti-Trump bushbot.

Until he stops the political nonsense opposing the candidacy of the leading GOP candidate (in every poll in America) he is completely on the wrong side.

Not interested. At all.

He doesn’t get it. If he got it he would add Boehner, McConnel, Ryan, McCain, Graham, and others to the Obammy list.

Anyone that hates Trump and sends out Megyn Kelly to do his dirty work doesn't "get it."

Where's the pic of Rupert with Jeb and Jarrett?

PS. Not breaking news!

Please point to where in the speech, Murdoch has climbed down from his anti-Trump nonsense position.

Where?

I want evidence. I am perfectly content to going back to Fox News, I was a very loyal viewer for years and year.

But all I have seen from them recently, is anti-Trump nonsense.

Complete nonsense.

Please point to evidence, that has changed.

I’ll gladly go back to Fox if Murdoch is no-longer anti-Trump.

I don’t think you’ll find something pro-Trump in what he is saying, though.

I just don’t.

President Obama is enlisting conservative media mogul Rupert Murdoch in his fight to combat climate change, with companies News Corporation and 21st Century Fox signing onto a White House pledge to cut emissions and support the president’s push for a global climate deal in Paris.

So I just read the article..... Is there something in there that is suppose to impress me? He’s a RINO.... that’s what he is. He’s like McCain. He even hired McCain’s Rino daughter. Whatever. Yeah... I’m closed minded. Whatever.

I saw this and that is why I am posting what Murdoch Sr. said in a speech.

Murdoch Sr. has handed off his empire to his sons.

When did McCain, Jeb, and other RINOs unload so strongly and plainly against Obama and Kerry? When did any RINO attack “Safe Spaces”?

One speech does not suddenly make a liberal into a conservative.

Perhaps you are the naïve idiot here.

The only safe place is a liberal's mind---there's nothing there and nothing can penetrate it.

Murdoch has one goal.... for him and his crony buddies to keep their position of power. They do not represent me and my ideas. They lie to us and tell us they do, but they do not deliver.... because they are not interested in doing the right thing. Obammy torqued him so he says something against obammy and Kerry. Tomorrow they’ll be buddies again. It’s who they are.

I support Ted Cruz.

I am angry with Fox News aka Rupert Murdoch.
.
My guess is, they know they have angered a lot of us out here and RM is trying to play both sides a little more.

Tossing out a bone or two “ain’t” gonna cut it.

This isn’t only about Trump, for me.
