James Murdoch criticises father’s news outlets for climate crisis denial
Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp and Fox cited for ‘frustrating’ coverage of Australian bushfires
Rupert Murdoch’s son has strongly criticised his family’s news outlets for downplaying the impact of the climate crisis, as bushfires continue to burn in Australia.
James Murdoch and his wife, Kathryn, issued a rare joint statement directly criticising his father’s businesses for their “ongoing denial” on the issue, which has been reflected in the family’s newspapers repeatedly casting doubt on the link between the climate emergency and the bushfires.
