President Donald J. Trump reacted to News Corp mogul Rupert Murdoch standing down from his role as CEO today, in a wide ranging, exclusive interview with The National Pulse set to air early next week.
Trump, who has recently been on the receiving end of Murdoch’s influence at Fox News, discussed the issue during a sit down interview at Mar-a-Lago, telling Editor-in-Chief Raheem Kassam, “I wish him luck,” before lauding the Fox hosts who he says have covered his campaign fairly, as well as using the opportunity to praise the late Roger Ailes.
On Murdoch’s hostility towards him, and the wider Fox News operation, Trump opined: “They pick their opponents – perhaps it’s the globalists – who knows why? He added: “There’s an overhang that you just feel, there’s something missing.”
“Roger Ailes was a great guy and a friend of mine,” Trump said, adding that he was “somebody I respected a lot,” who “did a fantastic job.”
