Murdoch avoided discussion of President Trump and President-elect Joe Biden, but praised "live news, analysis, and clear and strong opinion" at Fox News.
If you follow President Donald Trump on Twitter, Thursday morning marked a renewed broadside against Fox News Channel.

If you were at the Fox Studio Lot in Los Angeles, however, you could be forgiven for being unaware of the attacks.
That is where Fox Corp. CEO Lachlan Murdoch held court at the company's annual shareholder meeting, which was held in-person on the lot. The names Biden and Trump were not mentioned in Murdoch's 15-minute introductory statement, though he did praise Fox employees and Fox News, which he said had a record-breaking year thanks to its "live news, analysis, and clear and strong opinion."
"Our journalistic excellence saw viewers across the country and across the political spectrum turn to us" for coverage of the novel coronavirus pandemic and the 2020 election, Murdoch added.
The only politician mentioned at the annual meeting was a former one: Ex-House Speaker Paul Ryan, a Fox board member who joined Murdoch onstage at the meeting. Lachlan's father, Rupert Murdoch, chose to attend remotely via phone.

Fox is dead to me.
He wants to be the new CNN?
Go ahead. Maybe all his Hollyweird “buddies” will like him now.
Won’t matter to us.
If we don’t talk about the ratings crash, it didn’t happen!
Kill Fox!
Did he raise his arm in triumph?
Fox Corporation shares down 12% since Election Day, 6% yesterday alone, since hopping on the ‘Biden elected’ media bandwagon

We saw a fox down the street this summer...what is THIS fox they speak of??
No let up. We need a scalp, and Faux News is the perfect first scalp.
uh huh....just as we thought for all that time he was the speaker...just join the Dems already
Screw Murdoch’s kids, screw Paul Ryan, who wasted 2 years of Republican control of the House. There are a handful of personalities on Fox that I respect - Carlson, Hannity, Bartiromo, Dobbs. I hope they move to a network that isn’t beneath contempt. The rest of Fox can go to hell.
What Does The Fox Say?

Any conservative still watching FOX News Ch because they want to “follow” Hannity and Tucker have it ASS BACKWARDS. You don’t follow them, they need to follow you. They didn’t make themselves #1. YOU made them #1 in ratings. Those 2 can follow us to a new network. @newsmax
Rupert is probably spinning in his recliner.
Correction...FOX News Corporation is dead & buried to the entire world!!! Sad...but true...thanks a ton, Paul Ryan you traitor, turncoat to both your once political party and your country...The Great USA!!! SATAN, The Devil, and Hell awaits you Ryan!!!
Lackbrain should consider whether it was worth destroying the entire network for one candidate.
