Fighting Fake News with REAL 3/3/23; Murdoch admits to BS, The Royal Commission into Robodebt;

  

Creating mass paranoia

Rupert Murdoch and Donald Trump

Murdoch will do everything it takes to protect the family wealth. His "immortality" depends on the family's generational wealth being increased, held, and passed on. He will throw his employees under the bus. Blame and sack them if need be. After all, he accuses them of the doing things which he had full knowledge of. Will Murdoch do an Alan Bond and plead mental incapacity as he did in the UK? Will he be jailed? He's certainly opened up a can of possible defamation suits to follow on from this one. He and his business model ought to be considered a threat to America's National Security. News Corp and Fox News are a millstone around the neck of American Democracy. 

Julian Assange has been declared a threat under the Espionage Act, cornered, chased and imprisoned for over a decade for speaking and publishing the truth. Murdoch admits to publishing lies and passing on confidential client information yet has been allowed to run free. 

News in America isn't the small town competitive business of diversified opinion it once was it's now in the hands of 3-4 corporations and Murdoch along with Citizens United has changed the very nature of the term news and information and turned it into a vehicle of propaganda. He and he alone spawned countless media mimics who are doing much the same all for money. However, he and he alone remains the biggest.

Rupert Murdoch’s companies are set to be sued out of existence after Rupert gave evidence under oath that Fox News commentators knowingly lied to their audience about the 2020 presidential election being stolen from Donald Trump and Rupert said he could have stopped the lies but didn’t.

This evidence was released in the US (27/2/2023) in a redacted court filing by Dominion Voting Systems in their $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox Corp and Fox News. 

For people questioning the $30 billion estimate it’s worth noting that “Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones filed for bankruptcy after he and the parent of his Infowars website were ordered to pay about $1.5 billion for spreading lies about the 2012 Sandy Hook mass shooting.” (Click here to read more)

Reminder of the UK,

Fox Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch may have damaged the company’s defense in Dominion Voting Systems’ $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit — but some media analysts believe he is setting up Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott to “take the fall” in the case.

"If you're Rupert, you can't fire Rupert. And you're not going to fire [Fox CEO] Lachlan [Murdoch] either," Folkenflik explained. "So who are you going to chop?"

"Everyone who takes a senior executive position under Rupert Murdoch knows that is the case, that is the ultimate fall position," Folkenflik added. "They understand that's part of the job. You're very well paid. It can be a somewhat glamorous life. If you fall out of favor with the sun king, or it is to his benefit, that's part of the equation."

 The ALP's Pink Bats was fairy floss incident compared to Robodebt's carnage and the current LNP denial they acted with malintent. We can still here the echoes of outrage and the demands the LNP made back then to the accidental and unorchestrated deaths of 5 workers. The ALP didn’t “double down”  like Stuart Robert who remains a Cabinet Minister in Dutton’s shadow front bench after some 2000 deaths and countless mental breakdowns. Robert claims his job was to defend the atrocious policy of the LNP no matter what. His job wasn't to defend the people of his electorate let alone Australia.

The former PM and all the architects of this unlawful scheme which drove thousands to despair and suicide must face consequences for their part in Robodebt. Managing editor Michelle Pini reports.
