Evil Rupert Murdoch Stunt: Gave Jared Kushner Advance Biden 2020 Campaign Ad

Kushner & Murdoch BFF's

(Slimy and Slimier)

Great advice to Fox's Rupert Murdoch

(Easy Peasy)

What follows is all tied to the Dominion Systems $1.6B lawsuit against FOX reported here from the DAILY BEAST in part below and here from Bloomberg News and this just as serious from Business Insider here:

“Rupert Murdoch could face FEC fines if he tipped off Jared Kushner about Biden's presidential ads before they aired”

“Fox Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch agreed in a deposition that he gave Trump’s son-in-law and senior advisor, Jared Kushner, a preview in 2020 of a Joe Biden campaign Ad, as the latest sign of unusually close ties between the Fox network and the former president.”

In a statement to The Daily Beast, a Fox spokesperson acknowledged that Murdoch had indeed shared a Biden ad with top Trump adviser Jared Kushner — a fact that wasn’t quite clear in the exhibits.

A Fox spokesperson said, that video had already been released publicly and was on YouTube and even had run on public airwaves, adding: “Dominion had been caught red handed inserting distortions and misinformation into its lawsuit. Their lawsuit is a smear against the network, designed to trample on free speech and freedom of the press.”

It’s not clear why Fox waited to reveal this information.

Giving confidential information, as described in Dominion’s filing last week, would appear to meet: The legal definition of a contribution that is: The “gift of money, or any services, or anything of value” from “any person for the purpose of influencing any election for Federal office”. 

A Dominion spokesperson did not refute Fox’s new claims, but provided a statement saying: “The emails, texts, and deposition testimony speak for themselves.”

My 2 Cents: I hope the court gives Dominion the $1.6B and then adds another ½ billion for some other legal damages/fees, and such.

After all, FOX has earned it, right? Yep, now the “Unfair and Unbalanced” network sure has – and, the evidence against them is rock solid and compelling.

And, now the potential FEC case discussed above might just seal or shatter the deal between those two BFF’s: “Uncle Ruppy Murdoch and Jared Kushner” and make them pay a hefty fine – which on the face of it is also a pretty compelling and lowdown case, too.

Thanks for stopping by.
