Leftist Millionaire To Fund Associated Press Climate Change Reporting

James Murdoch, the son of billionaire media mogul Rupert Murdoch, and his wife Kathryn are close to a deal to fund a climate reporting division of the Associated Press, according to Axios.

The Murdoch couple will make a multi-million-dollar investment in the Associated Press as part of the deal, two sources familiar with the negotiations told Axios. The investment will go towards the creation of a new AP climate reporting hub which will employ 20 reporters.

The new climate division at the AP would reportedly have other donors in addition to the Murdochs, according to Axios. James and Kathryn Murdoch will make their investment through the Quadrivium Foundation which they co-founded in 2014.

“We look for initiatives that address the root causes of problems and where single actions can create multiple positive outcomes,” the group states on its website. “We prioritize the potential for lasting impact over safe bets. And we seek opportunities where our investment or leadership will make a real difference.”

“The Foundation currently has five main focus areas, with many topics being interrelated: Democracy, Technology and Society, Scientific Understanding, Climate Change and Ocean Health,” it continued.

Totally unbiased in any way shape or form. No, really. With wealth comes, apparently, free lobotomies.

I doubt Murdoch could move the AP any further to the left than it already is.

James Murdoch is reported to be so pussywhipped that he squats to pee.

I’ll go out on a limb here and say that James Murdock and his tree hugging wife, Kathryn, have a much larger carbon footprint than anyone reading this article.

In other words, funded propaganda

So, that’s Murdoch’s assignment from the Davos conference. He hawks globull warming propaganda. Soros pushed drugs and legal system destruction. Gates hacks up healthcare. They have it divvied up pretty well.

Say goodbye to that “white supremacist math” that’s done well for us for so long.
Say hello to “journalist” math, which simply put is, “Multiply by zero and add the desired answer.”
Voila - 2021 climate science.

Is this an investment, or misguided altruism?

Yep. And it’s the Murdoch family that owns Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, and many more.

You can read this on James Murdoch’s Wiki page:

Personal life
Murdoch married Kathryn Hufschmid in 2000; Kathryn works for the Clinton Climate Initiative, a charitable foundation set up by the former U.S. President, Bill Clinton in 2006. In 2013, the couple launched Quadrivium Foundation. Murdoch also donated money to the Clinton Foundation, the nonprofit organization run by Chelsea, Bill, and Hillary Clinton.

In 2020, Murdoch and his wife each donated US$615,000 to the Biden campaign.

Rupert Murdoch is 90 years old. He’s not running anything anymore. His children and their spouses are spending all kinds of money on their leftist agenda.

Just a payoff. The Asspress already makes old time Pravda look conservative.

“You’ll own nothing and be happy about it.”

It’s not like their agenda is some super secret conspiracy. One could have read what the elites have said and written for the past few decades and seen their game coming. Their greatest trick was convincing people that they didn’t exist.

I could afford to fund climate change reporting.
