Headline made me laugh out loud. Through his media (Fox News) he spread more poison and tricked more people into voting against their self interest than maybe anyone in history.
<< It was quite shocking when Fox hosts were caught admitting they knew they were lying - I’d always assumed they were just stupid. >>
I am even more naive than you. I assumed that a news outlet that admits to lying would (or at least SHOULD) lose its license altogether. However, I did some research and discovered that Congress passed the Wrong-Doers' Protection Act a few centuries ago in anticipation of such cases. [Those Founding Slave-Holders and Misogynists were truly brilliant men!]
<< Prime minister Rishi Sunak said he is “livid” that he has to "start all over again with another Murdoch" and hopes Lachlan is “just as corrupt as his father”. >>
I fear the Council of Nicaea (325) was correct when they articulated the doctrine of "homoousios," which affirmed that God the Son and God the Father are of the same substance. Sunak's hopes will be realized (alas).
Let's be real, Ed Sheeran is the real criminal mastermind here. Beside him, Murdoch pales into insignificance...a fact which is rumoured to be the actual reason for his throwing the towel in at such a tender age.

As usual, brilliantly and wittily said. Thank you and keep writing!
“Let's just ignore the fact Piers is a c*nt.”
So, I’m not the only one who thinks that. I’m glad.
It’d be harder to find someone who *doesn’t* think that!
Nailed it.
You make me happy.

You have outdone yourself again🏅🥂
Brilliant! Permit me to make two quick comments:

Wish I could write like that!🤣🤣 Reminds me of the Jabberwocky!
Was that the olde 'One Bright morning in the middle of the night,
Two dumb boys got up to fight.
Back to back they faced each other,
drew their swords and shot each other.
A deaf policeman heard the noise and came arrested those two dumb boys,' by any chance?
It rings a bell from my childhood. Fav. poem ever.
No, it's this one😊 https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/42916/jabberwocky
Yours is a good one too, though! I've not read that before!!!
I think it must have been in the same book's collection of poems. Thanks for the link. :)
OMG what a shock, since I haven't watched TV in many years now...I was so surprised to hear he was alive!
Well, that's a matter of debate.
Hahaha
The sick monster Rupert Murdoch has done more to destroy civilisation than anyone since Hitler and Stalin. All for money and ego.
Also a good buddy of #Putin and member of Russian Transnational Organised Crime
