Rupert Murdoch is the most powerful Billionaire in the United States.
He owns Fox News, The Wall Street Journal and The New York Post
He was spotted at the Republican Convention in Milwaukee:

Yet most americans have never heard of him… 😔
How big of a rock do you have to live under to NOT know who Rupert Murdock is? He has been in the news pretty much every week for months, if not longer.
You underestimate how ignorant the average person is capable of being.
For example:

I work with blue collar people. Vast majority of them definitely have no idea who Murdoch is. Those same people don’t know the bias of the wsj or probably what the New York post is.
Some of them vote. They never ever check sources or try to understand forces behind it.
It’s fun though seeing how talking points get filtered down through sources they see.
if they dont know who rupert is, they wont know who lachlan who is currently the one controlling fox(and not NEWS CORP). Its funny i only ever see them qoute the fox and right wing talking head out of context.
his voters dont know, rupert or lachlan i bet.
I know who he is, but I can’t say that information has ever provided me any benefit.
he looks like a mummy here thats been ressurected by his russian necromancer.
