Im only laughing so I don't cry...... wtf have we become?
Murdoch is the worst. He created Fox who, as a hyper-partisan outlet, platformed Trump. (And although there were partisan media outlets they were fringe outlets. Fox was the first mainstream blatantly hyper-partisan outlet.) Now despite Trump being a fuckwit beyond compare it's not Trump as president that's the worst thing to happen to the world.
The worst thing that cunt has ever done is for him to undermine science, the justice system, the media, trust in institutions, a belief in experts and the tearing down of democracy itself. Putting aside all the self-interest grifting has done to enrich himself and his family that will be his legacy.
Destroying trust and faith in institutions that took centuries to build.
Clap, clap, clap.
What a piece of shit.
And you know the irony? Murdoch hated Trump initially but platforming that mango made Murdoch more money 'so fuck it, burn the whole joint to the ground, I'll be dead soon'.'
How Rupert Murdoch helped create a monster – the era of Trumpism – and then lost control of it
Today’s Republican Party is a very different beast from the one Murdoch exercised so much influence over in recent decades. Does the media mogul harbour any regrets?
