The Media World Rupert Murdoch Built | Author & Screenwriter Gabriel Sherman Joins Stuart StevesA truly cautionary tale of how money and power really cannot buy happiness.For nearly two decades, award-winning journalist and screenwriter Gabriel Sherman has been covering the Murdoch family, their FOX News ownership, and their corrosive impact on American politics, the Republican Party, and the way information is perceived around the world. In his latest book, Bonfire Of The Murdochs: How The Epic Fight To Control The Last Great Media Dynasty Broke A Family — And The World, Sherman details the twisted and awkward ways in which an aging Rupert Murdoch, the head of the Murdoch empire, oversaw the Succession-like competition among his heirs to inherit his media legacy. Sherman joined Stuart Stevens here on Lincoln Square to discuss some of the bizarre ways the family competed for their father’s recognition — and how they’re reshaped the media landscape for the worse.
