More and more shocking revelations are coming from Rupert Murchdoch's sworn testimony in the Dominion v Fox News lawsuit. Among them:
- Confessed that he helped Donald Trump cheat during the 2020 election.
- He provided Jared Kushner confidential information about Joe Biden’s ads, the kind of information that Trump had to rely on Russian spies to obtain from Hillary in 2016.
During Trump’s campaign, Rupert provided Trump’s son-in-law and senior advisor,Jared Kushner, with Fox confidential information about Biden’s ads, along with debate strategy. Ex.600, R.Murdoch 210:6-9; 213:17-20; Ex.603 (providing Kushner a preview of Biden’s ads before they were public).
Clearly Fox News and Trump were (still are?) in a symbiotic relationship. Fox gets rich on advertising revenue from their conservative captive audience, while at the same time, using the platform to rile up the captive audience AND to help elect politicians who will tilt the laws in favor of the rich, while riling up captive audience by going on Fox shows with anecdotes that are less than true.
Get richer on more captive and riled up audience from more advertising revenue - it’s all fun and games (worth billions of dollars) until someone loses a country.
