Jon Stewart Talks Rupert Murdoch, Calls Him Boring, A "14-Year-Old Girl"

Posted by Scanner Matt

 

We haven't showed a Daily Show clip in a while, so what the hell. Here's Stewart chatting about the new Rupert Murdoch biography and how unimpressed he is with the infamous media tyrant, who is angling to go down (with the newspaper) as the last great newspaper man.

Biographer Michael Wolff still seems residually starstruck by the subject of his nonfiction narrative and calls Murdoch the most powerful man on the planet.

Murdoch's mother is the most famous in Australia? Oh COME ON! What an absolute steaming pile of turd.

She so is not, most Australians would have no idea what her name is or what she looks like.

Also, the family... NOT the most powerful in Australia for 100 years, not by a friggen long shot. WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP. What, you think that Australia is so far away we won't hear the shite you spin about us, you can make up anything you want about him over here. Grrrr.

Stop aggrandizing this power hungry, self important dick.

I hate the way that he deems it necessary to make statements on how Australia is run a few times a year as if we should care. We don't. He left, he is a US citizen now, why should we give a crap what he says in regards to how our country is run.
