Who can he mean? Rupert Murdoch's youngest son James says there will be a 'reckoning' for media who have promoted 'insidious and uncontrollable forces' that have left the public 'believing a falsehood' after Capitol riots
James Murdoch predicted Friday that U.S. news outlets will be faced with a 'reckoning' after last week's deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol
The youngest son of billionaire media mogul Rupert Murdoch accused 'media property owners' of promoting 'disinformation'
He also accused them of unleashing 'insidious and uncontrollable forces'
James claimed that the companies' actions left 'a substantial portion' of the public 'believing a falsehood' about the 2020 election
He did not explicitly mention Fox News in his comments yet appeared to be targeting the right-wing network
James split from the family empire in July 2020, leaving the board of Newscorp over editorial differences
Yet he had previously been in the battle to take over from his father and stayed loyal to Rupert through several scandals
In 2019, he received $2billion when Walt Disney acquired 21st Century Fox

the moron who filed this reporting is probably unaware that Fox News did more to push forward the myth of a free and fair election on 11/3 than most networks and that this punk Murdoch kid was no doubt referring to networks like Newsmax and OAN who are currently eating FNC’s lunch.

I hope he can fix things there. Conservatives really need at least one network. OANN and Newsmax aren't it, unfortunately.

Ruperts to kids James and Luchan are sniveling liberal scum. I hope their father kicks them to the curb and get them out of News Corp.
