Faux running headlines with (literally) 50 year old news.

The Murdoch family, famous for helming one of the world’s most influential news empires, is locked in a secret court battle over succession and control, according to a New York Times report citing sealed court documents.

For years, public intrigue has swirled around what would happen to the Murdoch assets after the death of patriarch Rupert Murdoch, 93, a powerful right-wing media mogul who has for years led Fox Corporation and News Corporation, which publishes The Wall Street Journal and New York Post.

The family’s vast empire is worth $19.5 billion, according to Forbes estimates – with its behind-the-scenes feuding believed to be the inspiration for the hit HBO series “Succession.”

At the center of this latest battle is the Murdoch family trust, which holds key voting shares in both Fox Corp and News Corp. Rupert Murdoch’s four eldest children – Lachlan, James, Elisabeth and Prudence – share four votes in the trust equally.

She's whatever they need her to be in the moment so that they can attack her.

I am sure at various point she'll be too White, too Black, too Indian, too anti-abortion, too pro-abortion, too isolationist, too interventionist, and so on.
But the sunshine aye shall light the sky,
As round and round we run;
And the truth shall ever come uppermost,
And justice shall be done.

I think I get it.

Right is the new Left.

It's that projection working again.

Since we all slam the Right, the actual Right is attacking us for being Right. Too.

Or something.

Too far right for progressive youth, too far left for middle-ish boomers. Too middle-ish for the spectrum ends. It all makes sense.

They've been stuck on Biden's old/senile/weak/incompetent/crime family/Hunter for so long they have nothing. They flopping around trying to figure out how to attack Harris.

trump doesn't give a rats ass what the CW is. He'll call her stupid, call her a liar. Call her a commie fascist. Every trick he used on Hillary Clinton, he'll use on Harris. In the minions will dutifully follow along.

I think Madam Vice President, has one advantage over Clinton, the Reich Wing hasn't spent 25 years spreading hatred about her...
