James Murdoch really doesn’t watch Succession and also doesn’t watch Fox News Channel. Proving he is far from Roman Roy on the Emmy nominated HBO media dynasty series, Rupert Murdoch’s youngest son…
’s youngest son today circumspectly handled a slew of questions about his family and the new ground he’s staking out for himself. However, Murdoch did say he was “disappointed to see” longtime FNC anchor Shepard Smith leave the cable newserClarifying that viewers have “to be careful not to go down rabbit holes” and “there’s plenty of stuff on Fox News I disagree with,” the former News Corp CEO ignored his previous statement that he doesn’t watch the Suzanne Scott run outlet.
The longtime protector of his controversial and sharp elbowed father then pivoted into a familiar role of pushing the spotlight off Fox and asserted that “I think you have to look at talk radio too and the reaction of general partisanship in the country.” Half-jokingly calling his exit from the family business the “second scene of the first act, Murdoch sat with Vanity Fair editor Radhika Jones in Beverly Hills for a chat that could have gone all Kendall but stayed away from the mines his host tried repeatedly to drag him into.
With the formal $71.3 billion acquisition by Disney of most of Fox earlier this year, Murdoch took his billions from the deal and set up venture firm Lupa Systems. Wednesday, Murdoch claimed that he didn’t leave because he didn’t get a big job at Disney. He also said he “really wasn’t” interested in being’s successor at the House of Mouse.
