Topline: James Murdoch, a son of press baron Rupert, has publicly criticized the family’s news outlets for their “ongoing denial” of the links between climate change and raging bushfires in Australia, where the Murdoch empire originated.
Former media executive James and his wife, Kathryn, who works for the Clinton Foundation’s climate initiative, have previously been outspoken about climate change. A spokesperson for the couple told the IAC-owned Daily Beast: “Kathryn and James’ views on climate are well established and their frustration with some of the News Corp and Fox coverage of the topic is also well known.”
“They are particularly disappointed with the ongoing denial among the news outlets in Australia, given obvious evidence to the contrary,” the statement continues.
Key background: The Murdoch family have been engaged in reportedly shaky relations for years, with brothers James and Lachlan in competition to succeed their father as overseers of the family empire. James has distanced himself from the company, while Lachlan is officially his father’s heir. The two brothers are reportedly barely on speaking terms. James previously launched a failed bid to overhaul Fox News, which he saw as damaging to the company, amid a sexual harassment scandal in 2016. ....
Tangent: Murdoch is estimated by Forbes to be worth $19.6 billion. Hit HBO drama Succession is thought to be loosely based on the Murdochs.

There are no links.....put down the libtard progressive idiocy Koolaid, JamesiIdot.....
Good one.
I’ll bet that actually is a motivator in some jet and yacht refits.
At least we know where most of the hot air comes from.
In a 20 min debate with this fool I’d have him running for the door.
Heading a news media group doesn’t qualify you to grasp Science and Physics.
Fortunately, he doesn’t head the new group. His brother does.
I blast the idea that these people know what temperature is correct and can control it.
It sounds like Little Jimmy didn’t get his allowance and is really PO’d at daddy.
Australia's Wildfires Spark Disinformation Battle As They Take A Tragic Toll
The wildfires in Australia have many sources (lightening, accidents, Aboriginals, birds, arson) but the mainstream media is determined to ensure only the CLIMATE CHANGE narrative is reported as the cause of these fires. Hence they have to discredit News Crop for reporting on arson.
There was a Paul Joseph Watson video posted here a few days ago where I broke down the media campaign to discredit News Crop.
Today’s forecast is riotous jihadis with a chance of Muslim arsonists and some scattered rapes in the late afternoon.
That’s (social) climate change for ya.
linking brush fires to climate change is idiotic...especially ones that were probably arson
If you believe CO2 at current concentrations is a pollutant, you are not a scientist. You are a political scientist thinking a religious belief is credible science.
