Breaking now:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Wall Street Journal @WSJ · Follow Breaking: Rupert Murdoch will step down as chair of Fox and News Corp after building a media empire over seven decades wsj.com Rupert Murdoch to Step Down as Chair of Fox and News Corp After Seven-Decade Career Murdoch will exit roles atop News Corp and Fox in November and will be appointed Chairman Emeritus.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sad! Who will the libs blame now for ruining the nation by providing information that counters the propaganda machine of the Left?? Murdoch is 92 years old.

More from The NY Times:

Rupert Murdoch is retiring from the Fox and News Corporation boards, the company is set to announce Thursday morning, making his son Lachlan the sole executive in charge of the global media empire he built from a small local newspaper concern in Australia starting 70 years ago.

The elder Mr. Murdoch will become chairman emeritus of the two companies, according to a person with knowledge of the change.

Brian Stelter, apparently still obsessed with Fox News, was the first with the clip of the announcement over on Fox:

I'd be sadder, but I'm too busy watching Tucker over on X these days!

I had not thought Rupert the Stupert was in charge anyway.

Relying on gerontocracy is a hell of a way to run a railroad. Much less a news organization. If Fox may even be called that any more.

I don’t watch it, and haven’t in years, even before 2020 fiasco.

I could see where they were headed...................

I assume he is going to die soon. Rupert has not been running the company for years.

Trump needs his own Cable TV station—his own newspapers and media. To get out the truth. I know just the man to head it too—Tucker Carlson. or maybe Glenn Beck? Soros bought all the newspapers in Maine—he might be on to something. The right needs a new William Randolph Hearst. When Fox fires Hannity you know they are done.
