  • Summary

  • This special bonus episodes tries to get at some of the questions the series leaves unanswered like: Where does Murdoch’s insatiable business drive come from? How can we separate his admirable qualities from his more ruthless pursuit of power? And what was it like for David Dimbleby to do a podcast?

    Playwright James Graham, writer of Ink, joins David Dimbleby in a live panel discussion from The Barbican in London celebrating the launch of The Sun King.

    Hosted by the Guardian journalist Miranda Sawyer they discuss Murdoch’s motivations, his media strategy and the rise of fake news and disinformation.

Opened My Eyes

I've been wondering what happened to create this division and anger in our country over the last two decades and now I know. Because of him I don't think our country will ever believe the news or trust them. The days of bipartisan news is forever changed for the almighty rating and dollar

Great Story Told Superbly

Rupert Murdoch & Fox News has created it’s own universe of alternative facts, not only in the U.S., but in the 3 largest English speaking democracies. And by doing so, he has put those democracies at risk - arguably their greatest risk since Facism in the 1930’s.

The quality of the storytelling is 1st rate.
