Means nothing, his son will take over and is just as bad, if not worse than pops.

Fuck you Rupert.
You make me ashamed to be Australian.
16 1 ReplyDon't feel bad. When he fucked off to the U.S he renounced his Australian citizenship.
Clearly being a megalomaniac was more important to him.

6 0 ReplyIf he did, I can see the next few things following immediately after:
- Rebranding to X News
- Adding the news segments as videos on X (formerly Twitter)
- Pushing the news on users, much like he pushes his own Tweets
- Dropping cable television broadcasting because the FCC and regulations go against his "free speech absolutist" values.
