but rupert murdoch does. white supremacist mass murders in this country can take encouragement from fox, want to, among other things, stop immigration to this country, as does fox, a company owned and operated by an immigrant, who has done more damage to this country in the 21st century than any immigrant in the world has done to any other country in the 21st century. rupert murdoch built a network with the sole purpose of electing republicans. there could be no president trump, without rupert murdoch's support. and every day that fox has been in existence, rupert murdoch has supported the republican parties abject fealty to the national rifle association. and so, it is thanks to rupert murdoch, as much as it is any republican president, with americas mass murderers are still what they have always been, the very best equipped mass murderers in the world. rupert murdoch has made sure of that one. every american mass murderer can thank rupert murdoch for all the murder tools that rupert murdoch has make sure th

they did so despite rupert murdoch, who's global media empire, got it start in australia, in the 1006 through newspapers that made their bad news with the mining a steady source of ad revenue. roughly 60 percent of the country's media space is controlled by murdoch's news court outlets that had a clear agenda in this election, demanding a policy of inaction on the client. the murder of press were trying to paint anyone who pushed climate change as the fall left greeny global warming because getting very dangerous, trying to link them together when a bow scheming against the government and wanting this green left agenda, which apparently did you support climate change it made them seem hysterical on something that really is a mainstream issue of major concern for almost everyone in the next 0 by 2050 is not enough for those climate zealots. but actually think that we can do things in this country to change our weather. and that is i saw in typically claude and full of delusion, if not funny. the election is a loss. the net office. if you want sky news, the main tv station owned by murd

ah al jazeera with instruct via australian election. rupert murdoch suffers a setback. the planet and climate activists capture brick. germany's toxic anti semitism debate, and the black listing of palestinian journalists. plus, searching you tube for an answer on why our journalism is being suppressed. ah, hello, i'm richard ginsberg and you're at the listening post where we dig into the coverage and examine how news is reported. there has been a changing of the political guard in australia. prime minister scott morrison is out defeated in an election in which climate change and what to do about it played a central role. having experienced forest fires, floods, and droughts, australians turned on morrison for his refusal to take this existential threat as seriously as they did. they backed the left leaning labor party led by anthony albanese, the new government. a progressive coalition includes green party and independent and peace, who promise they'll tackle climate change head on the outcome also amounts to a rejection of rupert murdoch's news corp, which backed morr

rupert murdoch does not care. not a bit. republican politicians do not care how large the body count gets in the permanent white supremacist assassination campaign in this country. they don't feel a thing. as the lying in the racist language have become more and more extreme and rupert murdoch's tv channel, it has only made rupert murdoch richer and richer and richer. the highest ranking republican elected official in the country today could not bring himself to renounce the great replacement lie told and sold by rupert murdoch. we >> do you have any personal responsibilities to republican leaders to speak out on replacement theory, apparently one of the things that motivated the shooter in buffalo? some of your members and candidates have talked about this. >> certainly the episode, this horrible episode in buffalo is a result of a completely deranged young man who ought to suffer the severest possible penalty under the law. >> [inaudible] rejected the replacement theory. does the republican party reject it? >> look, racism

and as that was stopping, well, rupert murdoch was starting something.unched talk tv in the uk, with a familiar face at the centre of it. welcome to viewers around the world. i'm piers morgan and i'm uncensored. as nelson mandela might have said, it's been a long walk to freedom of speech. and i'm back with a night nightly form of fabulous guests, fearless talk and yes, some fun. talk tv, twitter, cnn+ — in a broad way, these are all parts of the same challenge as we try and work out how we are going to consume news and discuss the news in the future. where will we be doing that, which companies will we be paying for their services? let's begin with vivian schiller, executive director at aspen digital. vivian, you've held senior positions at cnn and twitter, so you're a perfect person to start with. were you surprised by those two stories? one of them i saw coming a mile away, and the other one completely took me off guard, is the summary. the mile away is cnn+. it was always a dubious proposition. well, notjust to me, many felt that way. that you can ta

australian prime minister malcolm turnbull had to say about someone he knows well and that's rupert murdoche become unhinged from the facts that is now basically they've worked out that you can just make stuff up. murdoch has to take responsibility for what he has done. bottom line is, they enjoy the power. >> it's not just fox news. define american, our friend san antonio vargas talked about this great replacement network that studies have shown exist. "the new york post" is in there, fox news, prager university, fair, but two of those things are part of the murdoch empire. your thoughts? >> well, what fox news and what rupert murdoch has done is take this absurdity of replacement theory, wrapped in their own hypocrisy and beta o'rourked it in lunacy and have this outsized sense of entitlement they feed off from their audience which creates this story line of delusional grievances that has resulted in violence that foments violence that nurtures violence. we saw it on january 6th. we've seen it in buffalo. fox news is basically the recruiting tool now, the propaganda recruiting tool for th

this morning i sent a letter to rupert murdoch, to fox news executives and tucker carlson imploring the network and mr. carlson to cease replacement theory on their network. according to one study mr. carlson has used replacement theory on 400 episodes of the show, 400 episodes which has a nightly audience of three million people. it's dangerous and un-american for one of the biggest news networks in the word to amplify conspiracy theories eerily cited by the buffalo shooter. to those who think this is an exaggeration, for those who refuse to acknowledge that fringe white supremacist groups, i would ask you, with are were you when they were marching on charlottesville and chanting you will not replace us. that's what they said, you will not replace us. >> where were you when thousands went into the capitol and where were you during any trump rally where the republican standard bearer goes on and on about undocumented immigrants stealing the 2020 election. parroted by countless maga candidates across the country. and where were you when a white supremacist shot up a walmart, synagogues,

they stated fox news owner, rupert murdoch, should have his assets frozen. this is the guardian. if the west could find the courage would order an immediate freeze of rupert murdoch's assets, his fox news, prisoners, and rushes propaganda are so inter mashed that separate in the 2 as, as impossible as on baking a cake. arbitrary sanctions have already been imposed on all kinds of russians, but they say it's now time to take things further. go after western media corporations that tell the other side of the story, treat them as enemy combatants murdock booths russian morale and undermines ukrainian resolve. i supplying a dictatorship with foreign validation, with archie being widely suppressed and with social media outlets being purged and with calls to freeze the assets of the owners of tv networks that might allow another side of the story to be heard. the question must be asked. does the west have any grounds to lecture the world about democracy and freedom of the press? it's really been pushed to the side. demonizing. russia is considered to be far more important. kayla boffin

to follow up my remarks yesterday, this morning, i sent a letter to rupert murdoch, to fox news executives and to tucker carlsen, imploring the network and mr. carlson to cease their amplification of the replacement theory on their network. according to one study, mr. carlson as used act -- used rhetoric echoing replacement. on at least 400 episodes of his show, which is a nightly audience of 300 million people. 400 episodes. for one of the biggest networks in the world to amplify conspiracy theories eerily similar to those cited by the buffalo shooter. and to those who think this is an exaggeration, to those who refuse to acknowledge that fringe white supremacy views are now out in the open, i would simply ask them, where were you on the night thousands of white supremacists marched openly on the streets of charlottesville, bearing torches and shouting -- and chanting, you will not replace us. that is what they said -- you will not replace us? where were you when thousands of insurrectionists stormed the halls of this capitol, wearing sweatshirts about the holocaust? where have you been d

roger ales and rupert murdoch just did that on fox, too. up, because i feel like that's been the a trajectory the whole time. you report that had tucker is doing something different. what is that or what is the difference? >> look, a big difference is that carlson is taking themes and ideas from the underbelly of the far right, things that appear in the old days on be there which was a site on the daily stormer on, you know -- >> a nazi site. >> the daily stormer is nazis. >> neo-nazis. >> yeah. >> that's right, and these ideas are then polished up whiteley and presented and presented. i'll give you a great example. everybody knows in april when he got a lot of flack for defending replacement they're but in fact it wasn't the first time. it's been a growing part of his broadcast since 2017 when he was put in the 8:00 hour. there were 400 episodes of the show, joy, which he embraces a version of replacement they're which is a conspiracy theory that says that an elite cabal in either the europe or the u.s. are conspireing to replace the nativ

rupert murdoch allows this stuff to go out over his airwaves. >> and his son. >> absolutely.in 2018 when he said immigrants make us poorer and dirtier. we were doing a show about that and denouncing it and he was saying they're denying me my freedom of speech and first amendment rights by this advertiser boycott. i mean, he goes from ugly aggressor attacking vulnerable minorities and then as soon as it's punch back, he then plays the investigate card and aggrieves the americans. it works with his audience. but it's so scary. he has tremendous power. the right is powerful because it has him as a voice and the rest of the fox primetime lineup. >> racist entertainment you make believable. >> yes, yes. >> i would love to talk to him and see what he thinks about this. but i doubt that's going to happen. to the panel, thank you very much. let's take a quick break and come back in a moment with gop pollster kristen soltis anderson talking about disconnect between the news coverage that was the d.c. media focuses on versus what america might care about more. be right back. e foods i

he's the rupert murdoch of social media. i don't know who are what's been brainwashing you, but wake up and think for yourself. given his new purchase. this is an ominous tweet by a de la musk and a poorly informed 1. 1 of our major political parties has become a white grievance party that is set to renew, emanate, an authoritarian pro food and demagogue, who tried to stage a coup. it's not the democrats, mom, followed up with me, showing the united states drifting further leftward. this was also unappreciated by many mosque, has big plans for twitter, and he wants to make it a maximum fun platform lifting restrictions on free speech. he also wants to open up the black box and show the public, the algorithms was being promoted and what's being suppressed. all of that is a pretty big shake up in the social media world. some of the responses got interesting. were foxes, real power came in is that they were actually able to work newsrooms and i think you are mosque really saw twitter as the best vehicle to do that. even if eli

they buy newspapers, tv stations, whether it's rupert murdoch or anybody else, they buy data, they buy who you are, what you like, what you don't like and how much of it. and that's always going to be the bottom line gentlemen, our favorite, we're running short on time, but i'd like to ask the following question. so all of you, if you give your opinion about maybe 20 seconds of seconds or so, to what extent deeply the current financial and economic crisis has being caused by russia going to war with ukraine. always it bounce up in any way at some point, jack, if you wouldn't mind. yeah. well, i think it's accelerated in exacerbated it. the trends were already there. i think we're moving in that direction of a recession and eventually a financial instability following that. but clearly it's accelerated that and you can see it growing concerned about financial assets, deflation going on and know, will the crypto a crisis crash year spill over into other asset classes and you know, the increasing worry about that junk bonds are flowing out of money flowing out of junk bonds in the funds a

could in fact be one rupert murdoch.britain. i don't see why there should only be three broadcast networks. he says i'm going to make another broadcast network. >> meantime, he will have to become an american citizen if he is to own tv stations here. something murdock says he is willing to do. >> some people are saying it will take you 20 years to get your fox network on par with the big three. are you prepared to wait that long? >> sure, i intend to live that long, but i don't believe in the 20 years. >> the reaction to murdock's idea for a fourth network was similar to the reaction to ted turner starting cnn. it is ridiculous. you know? what does he know about television? >> we don't have to reach everyone. there's no question we have an inferior lineup of stations to our counterparts. it means we have to work harder to get our message across and get shows sampled. >> they had an idea that, in order to succeed, we have to differentiate ourselves in the networks. we have to do things they would not do. # >> fox started

. >> i just wanted to add that i think this is someone who needs to be called out for this is rupert murdoch news. if you read this manifesto, if this manifesto is what we think it, is it talks again and again of replacement theory, and what we've seen in the last few years the used to be just confined to the white supremacist fringes, has been mainstream by tucker carlson and has been mainstream by other various figures in the republican party, and i think what we need is a sort of effort to, you are never going to get rid of hatred and vitriol and white supremacist ideology on the internet. but you can try to quarantine it and draw a line and announce it and that is something that leaders of both fox news and the republican party have really consistently failed to do. the mainstreaming of it, is the most disturbing. when you talk about the replacement of, let's not forget, in charlottesville when people openly marched in chanted, jews will not replace, me jews will not replace us, and the sitting president of the united states said that they were good people are fine people on both sides o

supremacist stuff and that's where he picked it up on 4chan and other places and we also know rupert murdochpart of which is using replacement theory, the great replacement theory to profit on fox news, on tucker's show, in some of their newspapers like "new york post." the murdoch empire is actually profiting from selling this stuff. do you hold them responsible in any way? >> absolutely. you know, as -- as mr. crump said, you know, this young man may have pulled the trigger, but he was birthed by this system. whatever, you know, whatever he did to come up with these theories and whatever drove him to take this action ought to be called into question and held accountable. i'm not sure about what those things were, that's why we're working with mr. crump, but we certainly understand that the crime is much bigger than this young man. he did not act alone. he did not act alone, and that's what they want us to think. >> yeah. >> and we're investigating every aspect. >> yeah. that's the big question, ben, because, you know, you have everyone from elise stef nick who was literally putting out ads

reads quote, when roger ailes and rupert murdoch started fox news, they envisioned the channel as a counterbalanceiberal media. musk views twitter in much the same way. musk's vision of twitter isn't simply a platform free from constraints, but an instrument to counterbalance the woke social networks. the author of that piece joins us now. he's the president of media matters. angelo carusone, how do you fear elon musk will take cues from the fox news playlist? >> it's an update. when fox news was first a marriage, there was a value in, at least from the conservative side, speaking to their own audience. that does have power, but where foxes real power came in as they are actually able to get users. elon musk saw twitter as the best vehicle to do that. it is a little bit more nimble than other social media platforms. it has a disproportionate amount of influence given its user base. it is much smaller than facebook or youtube, and yet it has a lot more journalists, active corporations, active decision-makers. their engagement with that platform has significant downstream affects. twitter, compared

a couple of colors before -- a couple of callers before mentioned fox news and rupert murdoch. will not let my white fellow americans off the hook. the civil war has not come to an end yet. we have a remnant of the past that will not go away. they are right wing fascists they are quite willing to use violence. i would say to my fellow black and brown, especially the men but also the women, you need to take advantage of the second amendment. there are white people gunning for you. the war is on. they listen to fox news. that is free speech. the people who are doing these acts are terrorists, worse than isis, they have to be treated as such. the democrats, while we are getting gunned down in the streets are writing strongly worded letters and coddling joe manchin and i do not think the democratic party gets it and i do not think america understands what is fitted down the pipeline. there is a point where as liberals and as democrats we have to stop whining about the second amendment, we have to start taking advantage of the second amendment, and arm ourselves, if they want to pla

you have tucker carlson pushing this one major media, on fox, every day, people like rupert murdoch encouraged to do it because it drives up ratings. yet this is what's kind of havoc it wreaks on communities. it's not the first shooting inspired by the great replacement theory, but it needs to be the last. quite frankly, social media companies need to stop platforms like facebook, making it so easy for hateful movements to use platforms to recruit. and networks like fox are going to have to stop pushing the great replacement theory. and frankly i get tucker carlson to talk about something else. it is a racist, antisemitic, xenophobic, theory that is quite frankly inspiring mass shootings like this one. >> it's absolutely nuts, is what it is. okay, coming back to our conversation, don, susan, and david. david, i wasn't able to ask you a question so let me get to you with this one. you heard kathy hochul asked during the press conference that she will keep fighting. do you think that lawmakers have stopped fighting for the safety of the communal good? is that what is happening? or has happened?

from rupert murdoch down.oss the entire channel. that's what paul ryan on the board is obviously -- i guess he supports that. i knew paul very well. i didn't know -- sort of surprising, but that's what paul ryan, board member, must support. certainly what "the new york times" reports rupert murdoch supports. so it is fascinating. i want to go back to, though, what -- michael steel, you were talking about replacement. you? you replacing elise stefanik. let's think about the richness of this for a second. black americans, their ancestors came here in a most unhappy manner. they were enslaved and drug here. but if you were black and in america, your ancestors actually stepped foot on this soil 400 years ago. >> yeah. >> there are a lot of irish-americans. there are a lot of italian-americans. there are a lot of italians with names like stefanik. there are a lot of americans who came from eastern europe, that didn't come for another 200 years. i guess -- when i heard replacement theory used against black americans

rupert murdoch's "wall street journal" leading with it, as well. never happened. >> if it is, in fact, what "politico" and the news organizations say it is, and i would say it appears to be legitimate, that's part one. part two, though, again, is it's just so striking how harsh the rhetoric is here. you can read opinions by john roberts and tell they're john roberts opinions, or by thomas or alito. this sounds so much like aloe alito. doesn't sound as much from barrett or kavanaugh from the limited looks we've had at their opinions. >> right. >> again, my only question right now is, is this an early draft or not? josh said that it was not an early draft. it had opinion across the top. but that was written in february. again, perhaps this is the decision that will come out. but there can be a lot of horse trading going on between february and late june, when this opinion is released. i think the bigger question right now for us is the leak. why was there the leak? also, did the leak come from somebody in alito's camp, in the pro-life camp, that want
