Good riddance to bad rubbish.
James Murdoch Quits News Corp Board Over Editorial Disagreements
“Mr. Murdoch informed the Company that his resignation was due to disagreements over certain editorial content,” a statement said.
By: Daily Beast, Jul. 31, 2020:
Story continues below advertisementJames Murdoch has resigned from the board of his family’s news behemoth, News Corp, due to disagreements over editorial content published by the company’s notoriously right-wing outlets, The Daily Beast has confirmed.
“Mr. Murdoch informed the Company that his resignation was due to disagreements over certain editorial content published by the Company’s news outlets and certain other strategic decisions,” a company statement said. He was immediately scrubbed from the company’s online list of board directors.
Advertisement“Kathryn and James’ views on climate are well established and their frustration with some of the News Corp and Fox coverage of the topic is also well known,” a spokesperson for the couple exclusively told The Daily Beast at the time as wildfires raged in Australia.
“They are particularly disappointed with the ongoing denial among the news outlets in Australia given obvious evidence to the contrary.”
In contrast, James’ brother Lachlan, News Corp’s co-chairman, personally okayed Tucker Carlson’s recent non-apology for racist rants penned by his top writer.
In a brief resignation letter dated July 31 and addressed to the board of directors, James wrote, “I hereby tender my resignation as a member of the Board of Directors of News Corporation (the “Company”), effective as of the date hereof. My resignation is due to disagreements over certain editorial content published by the Company’s news outlets and certain other strategic decisions.”
The board of directors will be reduced to 10 members as a result, headed by Murdoch’s father, Rupert, and Lachlan.

Perfect illustration of how phony this whole “climate emergency” really is. The climate changes and goes through cycles, but we have no control over it. Remember when the Obama admin was saying “climate change” was a bigger threat than ISIS, those evil Islamic monsters who were destroying, murdering and burning people alive? These frauds have no conscience.

It’s amazing that the Greta Thunberg types site the Australian bush fires.
One man that refused to follow the government mandates on tree control, on his own property, was fined over One Hundred Thousand Australian Dollars. When the bush fires struck and wiped out ALL of his neighbors … crops, outbuildings, and homes … his property was virtually unscathed. Not so much as an acre’s worth of wheat was touched.
Listen to Greta. She knows all.

Seriously, felix1999. Do you think that listing her as a saint isn’t beneath her? After all, she is the savior of the world.

she is mentally sick. How can anybody lose time to listen to a sick person, whose all “tales” are fabricated by her father who has never worked (he tried to be an actor but failed).
Greta is depply autistic and therefore she repeats all what her father wrote to her.
He is very happy to get many millions quite free.
Boycott this sick girl and her father con father

Here’s one about the 100,000 fine and how 173 of his neighbors died
There are many more articles and videos. Just use a search engine. But the above link tells most of the tale.

Thank you. This looks to be the same as in America where the Land Owners are FINED for cleaning up their property by the “EPA” after a fire.

Don’t even start on the subject of the EPA. And, not only the federal … but the states all have their own.
Talk about totalitarian tyrants that possess the intellect of an aphid ….

I certainly hope that your trade description means you analyze the performance of your average Software algorithm writer, which in my opinion is completely inept.

Idealism, (i.e.) Liberalism, (i.e.) Progressivism is a psychosis so intense there is nor ever will be a cure other than extermination for it.
At 59 years and over 6 months of age it is a tragedy I never had any male heirs, but as a true patriot, that is someone who holds dear the values of which our society was built it would be pleasant to possess precognition or travel in time to find out if one’s heirs were themselves infected with a case of the “Crazies” and take whatever drastic measures necessary to sanitize that component, spore of the deadly disease spreading.
Any advice on what measures to take to eradicate the disease known as Idealism would be most appreciated.
