Rupert Murdoch gave Jared Kushner confidential information about Biden election ads, court filing claims

[Scott]

 

Rupert Murdoch leaked confidential information to Jared Kushner about Joe Biden’s strategic moves in the lead up to the 2020 presidential election, according to a bombshell court filing by Dominion Voting Systems.

 

The company that sells hardware and software used during elections has slapped a $1.6bn defamation lawsuit against Fox News and accused the network of airing lies and conspiracy theories about the 2020 election.

 

Dominion opposed Fox News’s move to throw out the lawsuit in the new filing on 27 February.

No surprise there imo

Which specific "ad" is this referring to? Why would Murdoch have confidential material from the biden team? The only ad that I remember was the one when biden mocked Trump for walking carefully down a slippery ramp. Of course, that did not age well in light of biden's catastrophic fall from his stationary bicycle, and repeated wipe-outs on the same plane steps that biden mocked trump for being careful on. An absolute farce.

 

"“Some people are always in a hurry,” a narrator says in the opening scene, over a montage of Biden riding a bike, walking away from an Air Force plane, preparing to go onstage and jogging up a ramp. At one point, as the narrator says that some people “race up steps when others take it slow” as a video shows Trump making an unsteady descent on a ramp after giving an address at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in June. That’s juxtaposed with video of Biden jogging up a similar ramp, from an address he gave at the academy."

Are you seriously wondering why Murdoch would have confidential Biden campaign information?

Do you remember who Murdoch is?

Those Republican accusations of media collusion and bias turned out to be a confession.

 

There’s a surprise.

Lately it seems to me whenever a republican accuses the other side of something they are projecting sad but true imo

It's not just lately. All the accusations of election fraud, censorship, media bias, corruption. The list is never ending. All just lies.

And McCarty returned the favor by providing the Jan.6 footage to Fox News! ????

This would show the Trump team in what markets the Biden campaign is making purchases and concentrating its efforts. In other words, Murdoch revealed a piece of Biden's strategy which he had no right to reveal.

"Which specific "ad" is this referring to?"

 

Apparently all of them scheduled to run on Fox network available to Murdoch.

 

"Why would Murdoch have confidential material from the biden team?"

 

Because Presidential candidates advertise on every network.

 

Try reading the full article:

 

"It alleged, through depositions, internal texts and emails, that Fox Corporation chairman Mr Murdoch had provided Donald Trump’s son-in-law advance knowledge of the then-Democratic presidential candidate’s advertisements and debate preparations."

 

“During Trump's campaign, Rupert provided Trump’s son-in-law and senior advisor, Jared Kushner, with Fox confidential information about Biden’s ads, along with debate strategy (providing Kushner a preview of Biden’s ads before they were public),” according to Dominion’s filing."
