Discussion: Rupert Murdoch: Fox News Harassment Scandals ‘All Nonsense’

Any of y’all watch the Tracey Ullman Show? She does the most wicked take-off of homelife with the Murdochs. She plays Jerry.

O my god it’s funny.

I hope the women who signed settlements with Fox sue Murdoch’s ass off for breaching the non-disclosure clauses of the settlement agreement.

I’m starting to think he sold off the entertainment arm of the business to Disney because he needed the money to pay off all the women suing Fox for sexual harassment.

Tens of millions of dollars with of nonsense but nonsense none the less. It’s called denial Rupert, get on the barge and start paddling. It might help your onset of dementia.

21st Century Fox spent an awful lot of money on “Nonsense” then.

I wonder what the investors think of that?

“There was a problem with our chief executive, sort of over the years, but isolated instances. As soon as we investigated it, he was out of the place within hours.”

“Well, three or four days,” Murdoch hedged.

See! See! That’s how men handle a problem! When an issue comes up, you deal with it! Over and out the door in hours, if not days. No lollygagging around or ineffective bureaucratic nonsense.

After all, if this shit sees the light of day after decades of effort trying to supress it, then we better deal with it quick. Otherwise, folks might want a change in leadership…

It’s funny you say that because Dan Johnson’s widow was saying exactly that last night.

She has a show again? I used to love her old show.

She does. I’m trying to remember when it comes on - we caught it accidentally the first couple of times. This season may be close to ending - she’s spent it doing Dame Judy Dench and Dame Maggie Smith, hilariously, Angela Merkel and she’s better than Kate McKinnon and I don’t say that lightly, and the Murdochs at home which is just fucking hysterical.

Wonderful. It’s on HBO and the episodes are available on demand.

Yeah - I just went out back to ask my husband what channel it was on.

It’s well worth watching. She continues to amaze me and I don’t understand why she never gets any older. She’s been around for a minute - she was in a Bob Altman movie and he’s been dead for years.

Why yes…I was just reading that some person just defended OMAROSA with the same argument…of course, she threw in we hate her because we’re racist argument too…

He spread the money around to get workarounds regarding licensing for papers + tv/radio in the same markets. Recall that he (using Harper’s a FOX-owned publishing company) gave Gingrich a large 6-figure advance for a stupid book nobody was going to read. Congress then bent over like the cheap whore it is.

Yeah, I think we can definitely move him into the “almost certainly” column.

I heard somewhere that Fox News is an industrial scale sexual harassment factory. Didn’t Murdoch find one of his so-called wives by hitting on an anchor in one of his television stations?

That’s like Murdoch saying only a few Jews and liberals trying to protect them were killed in the Holocaust.

Murdoch is from the same sub species as little lying Donnie Trump and pervert pretend cowboy Roy the pervert Moore.

Murdoch…example of what happens when you let rape and sexual assault slide under payouts and NDA’s that enable the perverts and rapists to keep their money and standard of living. Put them in jail - formalize bill o’reilly’s record as a rapist!

Why is the US such a magnet for crooked and immoral robber barons? Why the hell are we allowing such wretched families as the Murdoch’s, Trump’s, Koch’s, numerous Russian mafia billionaires, Melania and her parents (father is a registered communist), and etc.

Imagine the US if we exterminated away all the robber barons! Get rid of Trump, Koch, Murdoch, Gates, Buffet, Ross, little Betsy, and the rest of them. Imagine being the world’s #1 exporter of corrupt robber barons!!

Rupert Murdoch, the co-executive chairman of 21st Century Fox, said
Thursday that the multiple sexual harassment scandals that rocked Fox
News were “all nonsense,” aside from that of the network’s late chairman
Roger Ailes.

Obscene amounts of money sometimes makes people say really stupid stuff

Why is Luis Gutierrez on your list of GOP Cocksuckers? And Gene Green?
