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!

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

“an ‘identity crisis’ that he charged has undermined American strength and fostered terrorism around the world.”

That’s true, except it’s not an identity crisis. It’s treason. We need to demand a regime change. We need massive, widespread demonstrations that won’t stop until they’re all in prison.

Does anyone seriously expect Rupert to follow these words with deeds? Talk is cheap, and I’ve seen where Fox News has gone. That’s why I watch One America News.

This is not breaking news, nor is it all that exciting. And yes, I did read the article.

Murdoch, through his companies, have done untold damage to conservatives. Nowhere in here is there an acknowledgement of that. Nor is there an apology. Instead he throws a few softballs to the neocons. So what?

Murdoch may get this but he is OUR establishment

All hawk and fiscal restraint unless it applies to him

Zero culture warrior

He and Ailes are as we speak colluding with the enemy to kil Trump and anyone else except Rubio or Yeb

It’s pure Rosebud

Blah Blah Blah...this is what Rupert says for public consumption. Behind the scenes he’s firmly in the NWO camp and fully supports the UN’s evil climate change agenda.

This was nothing but a pimp piece for New World Order he wants for the Next POTUS to do....

Murdoch is the biggest POS that walks the earth along with George Soros and Warren Buffett...

The whole reason they want Jeb Bush in the White House so bad is because they will put NWO and no other reason.....

Thanks for this, and, having read through 110 or so posts, I also thank you for standing against the flying spittle of enraged people who think they are more pure than you are on the topic of Trump in particular.
I am convinced that Trump is the answer, and STILL find Murdoch’s newfound HIGHLY IDEOLOGICAL essay/speech to be extraordinary, especially given the source. I had soured on him to the point of writing him off as nothing more than an opportunistic charlatan. But one thing I’ve found in this decade is that squishy positions need not apply, even though some do try. Nowadays, it is ultimately all ideology, all the time; and there are only two ideologies, bottom-line: 1) communism (in all its guises), and 2) the US Constitution (original intent). Period.
And, whether he knows it or not, Murdoch just launched a big broadside against the former, and for the latter. For that, he got my attention.
So again, I thank you for posting this (I reposted it on facebook), and especially for inveighing on behalf of the reality of its import. Sorry about all that spittle. It can be that way when one-issue purists are engaged.

I formally declare this room an ‘unsafe space.’”

WONDERFUL..and extremely quoatable,

I predict that this will lead to many similar statements far and wide...particularly in the net.
