‘We’re clearly heading towards collapse’: why the Murdoch empire is about to go bang
-
The original laws were written in broadcast days. Even if we had it today, so many people get their news from privately produced videos that there'd always be a huge number of deliberately uninformed people.

It was family court. Meaning theres privacy to internal family matters

It says if he lives to be 99 in 2030 when the trust expires he can then again cut the other kids out. May his health fade quickly for everyone’s sake

And in its place Musk has his own now.

::: spoiler Fairness Doctrine (wikipedia)
The fairness doctrine of the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), introduced in 1949, was a policy that required the holders of broadcast licenses both to present controversial issues of public importance and to do so in a manner that fairly reflected differing viewpoints.

ok, i get it now. -
You might want to look up a movie called "Network.'
It went from cutting edge satire to staid docudrama in real time.

Reading the plot of the film on Wikipedia reminds me i might have seen it once. This film ends on : "This was the story of Howard Beale: the first known instance of a man who was killed because he had lousy ratings."

I wish nothing but pain for this fuckhead. May he develop dementia and circle the drain for years, living in a puddle of his own mess, then die alone and sobbing the day before he would get the power to dissolve the trust.

A couple weeks or months would be better, that way they can't pretend that he lived just long enough to sign it over.

Europe here, what's a family court?
-
I think if it’d stayed, we’d have been talking about applying it to cable, rather than just forgetting it existed in the first place.
There’s certainly no direct link, but I think it indirectly changed the conversation around what society deemed acceptable in news media.

I don't think that's how it works, but I am not a lawyer.
Initially, I reached the same conclusion, but by the sounds of it, once the trust expires it simply means that the kids can now sell the stocks or do whatever they want freely. I think they don't lose control of the stocks and if anything, they actually start to enjoy more control or at least freedom.
But again, I am not a lawyer.

Where family matters are decided? Also Europe here, you don't have such a tihng? Not even specialised judges/procedures at an ordinary court? When people get divorced or sue each other for alimony, child support etc. you're dealing that like a theft or company merger or something?

He wanted the other 2 children out of their will, because they dint share the right wing views that Lachlan had.
-
Most of MSM is now mostly right wing, and younger cons have been looking for further right wing sources and listening to grifters. There really isn't al left wing media at all, on top of my head the closest is one that is more like interviews, that isn't on any of the main channels

Lached out.

1 Kid, James.
Murdoch is a misogynist old dinosaur, Prue and Elizabeth were never up for consideration.
