2020: James Murdoch Gives Maximum Donation to Pete Buttigieg’s Campaign
Breitbart ^ | 16 Apr 2019 | JOSHUA CAPLAN

Posted on 04/16/2019 9:19:17 AM PDT by detective

James Murdoch, the scion of billionaire and Fox News founder Rupert Murdoch, gave the maximum possible donation to 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg’s campaign.

Murdoch donated $2,800 to Buttigieg, the largest amount possible to a primary candidate, according to recently filed Federal Election Commission reports. Murdoch joins other high-profile figures — including Susan Rice, formerly the National Security Adviser under President Barack Obama, and actor Ryan Reynolds — in supporting the 37-year-old Harvard graduate’s White House bid. Buttigieg has enjoyed a recent bounce in the polls thanks to a torrent of wall-to-wall media coverage.

"Murdock son is supporting Buttigieg."

Maybe Murdock's a homo, too.

Eh. $2,800 is chicken feed. Or rather maybe it’s for the pet store. Gerbils, gerbil pellets and gerbil bedding are probably not cheap. Maybe the money covers a year or two. Then there’s the nitrous oxide needed to get them into a real frenzy to heighten the experience. Know what the Gerbil community calls hemorrhoids? “Speed bumps”.

"Conservatives need to make sure they keep watching Fox news."

Murdoch isn't conservative. He's just a keen businessman - he saw 1/2 of an entire country needing a product that wasn't being offered.
Fox News still has some value, but is NOT to be worshipped.

Murdoch is a British citizen by birth and a naturalised US citizen. He lost Australian citizenship when his father became a US citizen, but he is eligible to reclaim it.

Ryan Reynolds. He now holds two passports and is a dual citizen, having recently been ...

"Fair and Balanced"

What a Joke!


The Murdoch brothers are full out Libtards and FoxNews is proof.

Look at their hires: Donna Brazille, that horrid Marie Harf, Jessica Tarlov; Leslie whatever; Jemu somethingerother; (I wish I could recall the names of the hateful others).

Look at who Fox features: Juan Williams, Geraldo, Arthel. FoxNews is totally unwatchable on the weekends save for Judge Jeannine and Mark Levin, and sometimes Steve Hilton and Jesse Waters.

Maybe that is why Butti-judge is getting so much air time on Fox. Yesterday, Laura Ingraham did a long opening piece on him. Why?

Yes he is; and, he and his "husband" are looking to adopt a child.

I think the weekend hosts of "Fox & Friends" are OK. The Journal Editorial Report airs Saturday afternoon and again Sunday morning and afternoon (not sure when it is first shown, maybe on Friday). They are fairly even-handed and sometimes have positive comments on Trump, and cover some stories in more detail than you get elsewhere.

The 2 best on Fox are Hannity on Fox News and Lou Dobbs on Fox Business.

Also on FBN: Maria Bartiromo is very good. Stuart Varney is almost always worth watching, as is David Asman. Most of the time Trish Regan is worthy of checking out.

Also on Fox News: Carlson most nights, especially Mark Steyn nights. Ingraham is vorthy. Fox and Friends are very good almost always. Pirro and Waters are good on weekends.
