Murdoch goes to court over extremist legacy
If the famous series Succession made history by telling a story inspired by the life of the famous Murdoch family, the twists and turns of Rupert Murdoch’s life, his children, and his media empire, and attracted many fans and viewers, the succession and throne game of this family is now going to court in the state of Nevada. Rupert Murdoch aims to keep his extremist media structure out of the reach of his liberal and moderate children. James, Elisabeth, and Prudence are Rupert’s three children standing against their father’s firm will to change the bylaws and structure of his media empire. They want to block their father’s path, who intends to make Lachlan, the child he has chosen to run this empire, the absolute future ruler of the organization. Lachlan, who is even more attached to his father’s extremist approaches, has already begun to suppress the slightest signs of moderation in the media under his control. Influenced by this policy, The Wall Street Journal has recently published some of the ugliest and most misleading articles about the Democrats and Biden. Rupert Murdoch’s other children do not sympathize with this approach, and specifically, James Murdoch, who has recently supported Harris officially, has made significant efforts in enlightening and progressive activities. However, none of these three are known as famous liberals and progressives. More than anything, they want a serious role in the future of their paternal legacy, which naturally includes curbing the extremism of the famous media owned by the Murdoch family. The three main and famous Murdoch children, Lachlan, James, and Elisabeth, have had tense and fluctuating relationships with their father. Long estrangements and distancing from Rupert have been an important part of each of these three’s lives.
