The fact that ragebait is the most effective way to drive engagement (and therefore to make money off of a captive audience) feels like the first falling domino that sunk us into our current predicament. Certainly the Murdoch empire made its fortune that way.

If the future has justice, Murdoch heirs will have to deal with the same consequences as the Sacklers.

The crime by Fox News is not that they presented a viewpoint, but that they did so at scale, in a knowingly disingenuous manner, to derive financial benefit, for decades.

The other children are also cowards for not taking the legal fight over the inheritance of Fox equity to the limit.
