“Three times this summer, government regulators have had to make major decisions regarding media ownership. Three times, the decision has gone the way that Murdoch and his company, 21st Century Fox, would have wanted,” CNN reports.
“Murdoch is known to speak regularly with President Donald Trump. And some of the biggest stars of Murdoch’s network, Fox News, have arguably been the president’s most important supporters over the past year and a half. There’s no evidence that either of those things led to the regulators’ decisions, or that the decisions coming together this way are anything but a coincidence, but Murdoch’s string of good fortune has set some tongues wagging.”
