Inside Rupert Murdoch’s Succession Drama
With the $1.6 billion Dominion lawsuit threatening to hobble Fox News, the ink on his divorce to Jerry Hall still wet, and his broken engagement to Ann Lesley Smith even fresher, it’s been a chaotic 12 months for the 92-year-old conservative media baron. As Fox and family insiders tell it, this could just be the beginning.

‘No individual alive has done more to divide America than Murdoch’ Fmr. Australian PM Turnbull says
On Monday, the trial begins in the Dominion defamation trial, which it is said will outline how Fox hosts lied to their audiences and riled up the MAGA base in the runup to the January 6 insurrection. That division and dishonesty created under Fox CEO Rupert Murdoch is discussed by the former prime minister of Australia, Malcolm Turnbull, who joins Joy Reid. Turnbull says on The ReidOut that Murdoch has done more to undermine American democracy than any other individual alive.

I know you'll find this very hard to believe, but Scott Morrison made a huge announcement in March 2022, claiming he was granting $100M to the Teach Us Consent organisation
Then Scott did nothing
The money was never there, never organised

The right side of history
Recently, speaking at a school, I asked the teachers to imagine how they would feel telling children in the future that in 2023 Australia voted “No” at the Voice referendum. I asked them to imagine how it would feel and it brought me to tears. In that moment, I thought about my children, my future grandchildren, all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, learning with

The Voice is not revolutionary or threatening. Only its opponents say it is
The sheer modesty of the Voice suggests just how antiquated the Coalition’s position is on Indigenous rights. It also suggests how far there is to travel towards full reconciliation.

Dutton’s grift
This is the grift. Peter Dutton flies to Alice Springs and says they should send in the federal police. He meets with a white bakery owner who is concerned about crime in the town. He says there are no consequences for “kids and adults”.

Both history and Liberal principle are on Leeser’s side and against Dutton
There is no question that Peter Dutton is weakened by this resignation, but this does not mean his campaign against the Voice can be dismissed.

Peter Dutton knew Julian Leeser’s view on the Voice when he named him Indigenous Australians spokesman.
Why, then, did Dutton and others not see the sense in a free vote?
They placed Leeser in an impossible position.
