Rudd called Rupert Murdoch and his rightwing news operations "the greatest cancer on the Australian democracy." in an article for The Sydney Morning Herald (the Australian equivalent of The New York Times).

"The uncomfortable truth is," Rudd wrote, "since the coup of June 2010, Australian politics has become vicious, toxic and unstable."

Brexit happened in the UK because Murdoch owns newspapers and media there, Rudd wrote, and

"Murdoch is also a political bully and a thug," former Australian Prime Minister Rudd writes, "who for many years has hired bullies as his editors."

According to new court filings, Rupert Murdoch discussed owning "The Apprentice" — the NBC business reality program that made Donald Trump a household name — following the former president's 2020 election defeat to Joe Biden.

In his deposition, Rupert Murdoch expressed concern that Trump would "kill" the show by turning it into "a full-time campaign vehicle."

"We just got over the idea," Murdoch admitted.

Murdoch rejected the notion that owning the rights would "satisfy" Trump, who turned against Fox News and Murdoch after his 2020 defeat and pushed his fans to watch alternative right-wing channels.

Trump chastised Fox News on Tuesday for how it is defending itself in a $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit filed by Dominion Voting Systems, which claims Fox harmed its business by spreading Trump's lies that Biden stole the election.

Dominion accuses Fox of knowingly amplifying Trump's lies and lending credibility to them despite evidence of no voter fraud.

Trump's claims about voter fraud remain a "big lie" that endangers democracy.

It is disheartening that credible Republican Party members are so hesitant to denounce unfounded claims of voter fraud and other lies that benefit them politically.
