"Earlier this week, the popular Australian news publication
Crikey published
what it is referring to as “The Lachlan Murdoch letters.” Lachlan Murdoch, as
you likely know, is one of Rupert Murdoch’s sons, and who has increasingly been
taking over the worst aspects of Murdoch’s approach to dividing society and
profiting off of the carnage: namely
Fox News.
It began with an article that
Crikey published on June 29th with the
provocative title:
Trump is a confirmed unhinged traitor. And Murdoch is his
unindicted co-conspirator. The piece takes the evidence coming out of the
January 6th Committee regarding Trump. It actually barely even mentions any of
the Murdochs. It focuses on much of the evidence about how Trump was literally
encouraging the overthrowing of American democracy, but concludes with this:
The Murdochs and their slew of poisonous Fox News commentators are the
unindicted co-conspirators of this continuing crisis.
I mean, that’s pure commentary and opinion. It barely names the Murdochs, and
doesn’t even call out Lachlan specifically."
