Rupert Murdoch worshipped Lenin when at Oxford

[midnight rambler]

Murdoch kept a bust of Lenin in his dorm room. That explains a lot. His son James kept a poster of Mao on his dorm room wall.

axis.com: Scoop: James and Kathryn Murdoch's next media investment (https://www.axios.com/james-kathryn-murdoch-media-climate-change-52c4d637-d6dd-48db-b06f-b5a40f33025a.html)

James and Kathryn Murdoch are nearing a deal to make a multi-million dollar investment to support the formation of a new climate reporting hub at the Associated Press, two sources familiar with the deal tell Axios.

Why it matters: The duo has increased their investments in media projects in the past few years via their non-profit organization called Quadrivium Foundation.

The foundation was launched in 2014 to fund groups focused on the advancement of "democracy," "technology and society," "scientific understanding," "climate change" and "ocean health."

James Murdoch is the former CEO of 21st Century Fox and the youngest son of media mogul Rupert Murdoch. He resigned from the board of News Corp. last year, citing disagreements with the editorial content published by the company, which is home to The Wall Street Journal and other publications.

Details: The new hub will employ roughly 20 journalists, and will be backed by multiple donors, sources tell Axios.

It will support theAP's existing climate reporting efforts. The outlet is already working with several foundations, including the Rockefeller Foundation, Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) and Walton Family Foundation, to fund climate and environment coverage.

As a part of its standards protocol, the AP says it always maintains editorial independence when working with such partners...

James Murdoch has made several media investments in companies like Vice Media and Morning Consult through his investment firm Lupa Systems, which he founded in 2019.

We have not had much true environmentalist reporting in corporate news since last century. Corporate 'reporting' on the crisis has all been focused on the anti-environmental 'climate change' cover for oligarchical and corporate energy taxation and control. While I accept the article below as true, less some measurement accuracy, I do not attribute significant terrestrial destruction of wildlife from increased CO2 but rather habitual loss and degradation. In fact increased release of fossilized CO2 may be one of the few human activities (along with irrigation) that has significantly helped other life on earth. I expect the Murdochs 'environmentalism' is like all the rest, only going to be funding energy tax and control to destroy the middle class and hardly affect the higher per-capita environmental destruction caused by Federal and State public services and millionaires and billionaires.

Human activities have caused the world's wildlife populations to plummet by more than two-thirds in the last 50 years, according to a new report from the World Wildlife Fund.

The decline is happening at an unprecedented rate, the report warns, and it threatens human life as well.

"The findings are clear," the report states. "Our relationship with nature is broken."
