    His son Lachlan Murdoch is taking over. Lachlan has been co-chair of News Corp since 2014, and a director before that. Given that Rupert is 92, I’m sure that Lachlan has already been calling the shots for a long time. This is not really a change.

      Is Lachlan a Kendall, a Roman, or a Connor?

        I am only through season 01 so far but I cannot say there is any choice that would be good.

          After finishing the series you will have come to the same conclusion.

          Shiv sucks too.

              Shiv was arguably the worst of them all

      Unfortunately his other son who was against his dad’s ways publicly attacked him so he’s got put aside while the smart move would have been to play his game, take over the company and change it.

        Why would that have been the smart move? If given the choice of having money and no obligations or having money and inheriting a dumpster fire while lying about what you belief for decades which would you pick? Maybe he doesnt want to be king of the shit pile.

        If you changed fox news, the people who watched fox news would go elsewhere, it wouldn’t reprogram them.

        The tail wags the dog in this case. Fox is lie based propaganda because its audience demands lie based propaganda.
