De Mediemogul Rupert Murdoch dominéiert mat senger Firma Newscorp d‘Medielanschaften an Australien, Amerika a Groussbritannien. Dat huet hien och bei konservative Staatscheffe beléift gemaach.

The Keeper by Tana French, who is one of my all time favourite authors. This is the 3rd in a trilogy which began with The Searcher and then The Hunter but you can read this new one without needing to read the others (although they're so good I would highly recommend it). Cal Hooper, the retired Chicago detective is back, with the village of Ardnakelty in crisis as a young woman is found dead just as a local big shot has plans for the town. Factions are rife, with many residents predicting housing developments, data farms or some other modern atrocity and Cal is caught up in a protest against plans which threaten their rural way of life. This is full of terrific characters, entirely believable themes, and some exceptional turns of phrase. Bonfire of the Murdochs by Gabriel Sherman. It was widely known that Rupert Murdoch favoured his son Lachlan as the heir to his empire, to the point where he attempted to remove Lachlan's three siblings from the trust which had been in place for years, in order to anoint him as the rightful successor - and paid his children a billion dollars each to go quietly, but they rebelled and took the case to court. This is the story of one of the world's wealthiest and most powerful families caught up in lawsuits, betrayals, and revenge. It has been described as being Shakespearian in its tragedy - a family ripped apart by the very man who created their empire. It makes for a fascinating read.

Affordable Interior Design presents Big Design, Small Budget
In this episode of the Uploft Interior Design Podcast, I reflect on my experience as an interior designer and podcast host while answering a listener's question about how to make her living room feel more cohesive and inviting without a full redesign. I walk through practical, low-cost changes—like removing an unnecessary layered rug, swapping out matching furniture for more variety, and introducing color through pillows and accessories—to help transform the space from bland to personalized. Along the way, I also share my thoughts on a documentary about the Murdoch family, drawing parallels to Succession and exploring themes of legacy, family dynamics, and the complications of passing down a business, all while keeping the episode grounded in my passion for design and helping others improve their homes.

Margaret Sullivan on the billionaire father and son buying up the US media
Bonfire of the Murdochs by Gabriel Sherman When Rupert Murdoch made a fateful decision about who should inherit his media colossus, he believed that pitting his children against each other would produce the most capable heir. Twenty-five years later, that gamble would tear apart one of the world's most powerful families and trigger a multi-billion dollar reckoning in a succession battle featuring betrayals, lawsuits, and revenge plots. In Bonfire of the Murdochs, bestselling author Gabriel Sherman tells the inside story of this epic family war, one whose seeds were planted a half-century ago in Australia when the complicated patriarch left his homeland to conquer the world and please the ghost of his judgmental father. That quest culminated in a media empire that controlled Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, and tabloids on three continents, which wielded more political and cultural power than any single company in modern times. But Rupert's plan to rip up the secret trust controlling his empire and anoint his conservative firstborn son Lachlan as successor set him on a collision course with his three more liberal children. What price would Rupert pay to secure his legacy? For the aging patriarch, this would be his final and most personal deal. Based on interviews with more than 150 sources, Bonfire of the Murdochs is a richly textured narrative where each child plays their predestined role in a blood feud that explodes in a courtroom showdown. There, Murdoch's children weaponize his own secrets against him. It is a tragedy Shakespeare would have appreciated, where getting everything you want costs everything you love. Hooked by Asako Yuzuki Eriko really wouldn't mind being savaged, if it was her best friend doing the savaging ... Eriko's life appears perfect - devoted parents, spotless apartment and a job in the seafood division of one of Japan's largest trading companies. Her latest project, to reintroduce the controversial Nile perch fish into the Japanese market, is characteristically ambitious. But beneath her flawless surface she is wracked by loneliness. Eriko becomes fascinated with a popular blog written by a housewife, Shoko. Shoko's posts about eating convenience store food and her untidy home are the opposite of the typical Japanese housewife's manicured lifestyle. When Eriko tracks Shoko down at her favourite restaurant and befriends her, Shoko is at first charmed by her new companion. But as Eriko's obsession with Shoko deepens, her increasingly possessive behaviour starts to raise suspicion. As Eriko's carefully laid plans begin to unravel, how far will she go to hold on to the best friend that she's ever had? Beautifully translated by Polly Barton, Hooked is a thrilling and unsettling story of the line between friendship and dangerous obsession. A delicious exploration of food, loneliness and womanhood in contemporary Japan, Hooked brings together all the ingredients for which Asako Yuzuki is so adored.

A new book focuses on the future of Rupert Murdoch's media empire after a legal dispute within his family. The case has renewed attention on Murdoch's long-standing influence in British newspapers and the role of Fox News in American politics. Gabriel Sherman, author of Bonfire of the Murdochs, sets out the background to the succession battle and the company's direction under Lachlan Murdoch.A week of intense reporting on Sir Keir Starmer has led to debate about the role of political journalism in the UK. Some commentators have argued that reporting may have fuelled the sense of crisis which followed further revelations in the Epstein files. Simon Nixon, author of the Wealth of Nations newsletter, and Catherine Neilan, Whitehall editor at The Observer, debate how political reporting works.The Washington Post has announced around 300 job losses, cutting roughly a third of its newsroom. Some sections, including sport, have closed and foreign reporting has been reduced. The changes have prompted concern about the paper's future and about pressures facing major news organisations. Marissa Lang, former Enterprise reporter at The Washington Post and member of The Washington Post Guild bargaining committee, and Cameron Barr, former senior managing editor of the paper and now Investigations editor at Mill Media, describe the impact of the cuts and the wider challenges for the industry.Presenters: Katie Razzall and Ros Atkins Producer: Lisa Jenkinson Content producer: Dan Hardoon Researcher: Ruth Waites Sound engineer: Jack Wilfan Technical co-ordinator: Akik Rahman
We go inside the real succession story within the Murdoch family media empire. It includes Fox News, The Wall Street Journal and the New York Post. In 2023 Rupert Murdoch chose his eldest son and most conservative child, Lachlan, as his successor – buying out three of his other children from the family trust and estranging them in the process. “His dream was to build a family business. And what he built was a business that destroyed his family,” journalist Gabriel Sherman says. His book, ‘Bonfire of the Murdochs,' also examines how the Murdochs changed politics on three continents over half a century. He spoke with guest interviewer Sam Fragoso.

Author and writer for The New Yorker, Jason Zengerle joins the Chuck ToddCast for a deep dive into his book “Hated By All The Right People” about Tucker Carlson’s rise—and why he’s become the clearest avatar for the unraveling of modern American conservatism. The conversation traces how Carlson’s personal history, elite upbringing paired with outsider grievance, and long-running resentments toward figures like Bill Kristol helped shape a worldview centered on anger, masculinity, and cultural backlash. Though he styles himself as anti-establishment, Tucker remains very much a Washington insider, increasingly influential even after leaving Fox News and emerging as the true heir to Rush Limbaugh, with real political impact on figures like J.D. Vance. Chuck and Zengerle also explore how Trump subsumed conservatism, why Tucker may be the figure best positioned to keep Trumpism alive after Trump, and how white male grievance now sits at the core of conservative cultural politics. From the Iraq War’s role in Carlson’s ideological shift to his calculated positioning on Israel, media, and elite power, the episode asks what “real America” conservatism even means anymore—and whether there’s any path back for Never Trumpers, institutional Republicans, or business leaders who’ve bent the knee to a movement that no longer resembles the party they once knew.

In this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck digs into the political fallout surrounding Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, and a Trump White House that remains intensely reactive to public opinion. While Noem keeps her job—for now—new polling paints a bleak picture for both her and the administration, with Trump’s economic numbers underwater, disapproval near all-time highs, and even his own base increasingly uneasy with ICE’s aggressive tactics. Chuck unpacks why Noem’s performative politics may make her expendable, why Miller is untouchable as Trump’s “bizarro Dick Cheney,” and how Trump’s inner circle is once again showing signs of instability as voters question whether the president is focused on the issues that actually matter. The conversation then zooms out to a broader diagnosis of America’s democratic dysfunction, drawing on Chuck’s recent campus speech about why this moment feels uniquely unstable. From razor-thin modern elections and the collapse of congressional responsibility to unsettling parallels with 19th-century politics, Chuck argues that the presidency has become overly powerful because Congress has failed to govern. Fixing what’s broken, he warns, won’t come from political elites—it will require engaged citizens, serious institutional reform, and possibly constitutional amendments to rebuild a government voters have been loudly signaling they no longer trust. Then, author and writer for The New Yorker, Jason Zengerle joins the Chuck ToddCast for a deep dive into his book “Hated By All The Right People” about Tucker Carlson’s rise—and why he’s become the clearest avatar for the unraveling of modern American conservatism. The conversation traces how Carlson’s personal history, elite upbringing paired with outsider grievance, and long-running resentments toward figures like Bill Kristol helped shape a worldview centered on anger, masculinity, and cultural backlash.

SUB TO THE PPM PATREON TO HEAR THE EXCLUSIVE ADVANCE RELEASE OF THIS NEARLY 4 HR EPISODE NOW:patreon.com/ParaPowerMappingTo discuss the state of communist and socialist counter-propaganda and indoctrination efforts on TikTok and the possible impacts of the imminent TikTok-Oracle-Fox merger, I'm joined by James Rehwald of MeansTV, the creator of many viral, info-laden, Marxist quote heavy, anti-imperialist TikTok sketches such as:“Join the CIA Today”“The War Machine”“Is Israeli Food Even Real?”“When you ‘vote' the imperialism & fascism away”and more.James is someone whose videos I've garnered enjoyment and edification from for a few years now and I'd been planning to ask him to come on the show for a minute once I became aware we had a mutual appreciation on Twitter, but the combo of the acquisition, Leavitt's comments the other day, and a previous interaction we had re world's sometimes wealthiest man Larry Ellison hastened my decision to hit him up and congealed the idea of attacking these topics together in my mind, and I can think of no one better to do so with.This is also a bit of an impromptu AmerIsraeli Years of Lead and PAWG aka Palantir Apartheid w/ White Gov session spurred forward by said recently assembled Zio·nist consortium's imminent TikTok takeover at Trump and the Israel lobby's behest. The logic behind this episode tying into our ongoing paying of heed to the AmerIsraeli Years of Lead is due to the fact that the Trump admin seems to be using the recent Charlie Kirk assassination / deep event as a pretext for retraining TikTok's algorithm to further suppress leftist content on the platform as illustrated by Press Secretary Leavitt. Said presser also fielded questions regarding Trump's decision to have the Bigfoot-esque, cryptid "insurgent movement" called “antifa” designated a domestic terrorist organization—which is, in its present iteration, mostly a fiction or else a mask donned by Gladioperators.Amongst that and the announcement of the Autism Action Plan (lol), Press Sec Leavitt also spoke to the TikTok acquisition, stating that, if the deal as presently outlined goes through, the app's US operations would be taken over by a majority American owned consortium helmed by vampiric, Bryan Johnson-financing multibillionaire Larry Ellison and populated by a number of Zio·nist national and cybersecurity experts, that Ellison's company Oracle will serve as TikTok's “trusted security provider”, that the servers would all be physically located in the States “without access from China”, and that the algorithm would ultimately be retrained, naturally leading to even more oppressive censorship of leftist and anti-Zionist dissent on the platform.Our convo takes a three-pronged approach (in reverse order):We expend some time and energy ParaPower Mapping the acquisition consortium together and situating it within a larger geo-and-deep political context, laying out the ways in which Ellison, Oracle, Michael Dell, the Murdochs, Fox, Andreessen-Horowitz, and Silver Lake and indirect industry and congressional backers of the Ban-Tok Bill like Alex Karp and Anthony Goldbloom and Rep. Gallagher are marked by deeply entrenched Zio·nist ideology and are inextricably entangled with the gen·ocidal, apartheid EntityWe discuss our TikTok prognoses and what the deal may mean for online anti-hasbara actionAnd I also pick James's brain re his experience as a leftist content creator; how he's harnessed video-making to promulgate postcolonial, anti-Zionist, and Marxist ideology; his writing process and the development of his distinctive, whimsically DIY, Hardboiled Nerf Gun style; and any advice he's willing to give to fellow traveling creatorsSUPPORT JAMES REHWALD:https://www.patreon.com/JamesRehwaldhttps://means.tv/programs/james-rehwaldFULL NOTES ON PATREON
In this episode of the MadTech Podcast, ExchangeWire head of marketing Grainne Reid is joined by CEO Rachel Smith and Ellie McDonough, programmatic director at Dentsu. They discuss how TikTok's US business could be impacted by investment from the Murdochs, how AI search is harming publishers, and UK broadcasters rejecting the idea that they should partner in order to take on the streaming giants. (Since this podcast was recorded, Trump has signed an executive order stating the terms of a deal to transfer TikTok's US business to a US owner. Rupert Murdoch's investment has also been confirmed.)

Brooke spoke in May with McKay Coppins, a staff writer at The Atlantic, about the remarkable, extensive interviews he conducted with members of the Murdoch family — particularly James Murdoch and his wife Kathryn. (Rupert and his eldest son, Lachlan, declined to participate). Hear about the infighting and sibling rivalry, and how the HBO show “Succession” influenced the family's fight over the future of their own media empire.

The world is on fire, and either because of that or in spite of that, we found ourselves consumed with the details of the Murdoch family d-r-a-m-a that were unsealed in court documents last month. We dig into all the things that shocked us (Rupert Murdoch has Asian daughters?), the bizarreness of Succession impacting the family that inspired it, and the potential ramifications of this family feud on our rapidly disintegrating democracy. Whether it's an escape from the more serious calamities happening around the world or schadenfreude from seeing these toxic forces thwarted, we hope this conversation gives you a little juice today. Plus, our top five signs that we're middle-aged.

On Wednesday, Rupert Murdoch's British media group agreed to pay “substantial damages” and apologized to Prince Harry as part of a settlement agreement over claims that the paper illegally intruded into the prince's life. Harry is one of many celebrities and politicians who have sued Murdoch's papers for illegally obtaining private information – the claims stretch back to 2011, when it was first revealed that journalists at the tabloids might be hacking phones. Martine speaks with democracy reporter Sarah Ellison about why Prince Harry finally decided to settle and what this outcome means for the Murdochs. Today's show was produced by Sabby Robinson, with help from Rennie Svirnovskiy. It was edited by Reena Flores and mixed by Sam Bair. Subscribe to The Washington Post here.
A move by Rupert Murdoch to secure the conservative editorial leadership of his media empire, including Fox News, the New York Post, and the Wall Street Journal in the U.S., in the hands of his son Lachlan, was dealt a blow by a judge who accused the Murdochs of acting in bad faith. Angelo Carusone, president and CEO of Media Matters discusses with Alex Wagner the significance of the ruling to the future of conservatism and MAGAism in the U.S.
