Just because he is "retiring" does not allow him to avoid being held accountable.

Megatron81 258 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I had a feeling that one of these days that Rupert Murdoch was going to step down from Fox he built an empire with Fox. All the best Rupert enjoy retirement. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/19857-breaking-rupert-murdoch-stepping-down-from-fox-corporation/#findComment-290360 Share on other sites More sharing options...
