Fixed that for you, Steed (and a link for you: https://www.huckmag.com/perspectives...en-and-biased/)


About Murdoch:

His newspapers and television networks had been instrumental in amplifying the nativist revolt that was reshaping governments not just in the United States but also across the planet.
His 24-hour news-and-opinion network, the Fox News Channel, had by then fused with President Trump and his base of hard-core supporters
, giving Murdoch an unparalleled degree of influence over the world’s most powerful democracy.
In Britain, his London-based tabloid, The Sun, had recently led the historic Brexit crusade to drive the country out of the European Union — and, in the chaos that ensued, helped deliver Theresa May to 10 Downing Street.

In Australia, where Murdoch’s power is most undiluted, his outlets had led an effort to repeal the country’s carbon tax — a first for any nation — and pushed out a series of prime ministers whose agenda didn’t comport with his own.


Rupert Murdoch's newspapers are not just right wing, they often distort and manufacture news. They are about as "trustworty" as Breitbart or Fox News (edit oops Fox also belong to Murdoch Media), or the german "Bild". And don't you ever believe anything on the 'net (maybe if at all Reuters online) to be true without checking and double-checking. Best would be to use locally printed danish newspapers with some reputation.
