Murdoch Clearly Gave the Order Against Us… MeidasTouch Network and Ben Meiselas Sep 5 By Ben Meiselas I welcome the fight. Murdoch vs. Meiselas. MAGA vs. Meidas Mighty. It’s a badge of honor that Rupert Murdoch and his family are terrified of me and my brothers. Yesterday, Fox once again attacked the MeidasTouch Network. They are accusing us of saying that Trump was not shot in the face with an AR-15–style rifle in Butler. All we have said is that Trump should release his medical records, and that AR-15 bullets to the face don’t leave tiny scratches. But what do I know? It seems that Fox’s coverage is devoted to attacking Governor Newsom and Meidas while covering up the Epstein files. It’s been day after day of relentless attacks against us this week. I understand that the orders are coming directly from Rupert to go after us. There is so much more they are planning on doing to attack us. Murdoch is apparently obsessed that his “Murdoch family” is being surpassed by “the Meiselas brothers,” which now gets more views on Meidas than Fox and which has grown in subscribers on this Substack. All the usual tricks and brainwashing tactics used by Fox are becoming less effective, as MeidasTouch has led a wave of independent news outlets that now reach far more people. On my various shows and videos yesterday, you might recall I said that I actually feel good about this week. I feel like the resistance and MeidasTouch came out swinging after the summer. I don’t think Trump and MAGA were prepared for the strength we were all ready to bring to the fight. I feel we all have a ton of momentum right now to push back against anything Trump tries to do to our country. Rupert Murdoch is increasingly nervous about his legacy and ultimately what he will pass on to his family. He assumed his biggest competition would be traditional news media. He was wrong. It’s coming from independent media, and Meidas is leading the way across independent news and cable news. I hope we’ve made you proud this week, being a part of this movement as we’ve spent each waking moment doing our best to fight for you with everything we’ve covered. I feel we made good progress this week as a resistance and as a news network. Thank you for subscribing to this Substack and making this all possible.

Thank You Ben, Brett, and Jordy for the creation of the Meidas Mighty. I saw the first episode of MeidasCanada with Charlie Angus. Also the episode with you and Charlie Angus. Thanks to Mr. Angus, I now know where the word BOYCOTT came from. The Meidas Mighty are promoting the resistance against fascism all around the world.

The one line in the Bible that always seems closer than ever “THE MEEK SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH”. I believe that has arrived in our United States government. Trump and his cabinet secretaries are the most unqualified and inept people ever since the founding of our country. The leaders of all the other countries in the world are all laughing at Trump’s America. We are losing our democracy.

America used to be the envy of the world. This is a culmination of condoning bad behavior and corruption. This is the most inept government in the history of our country. Without discipline our country will collapse. The American people used to be proud of our leaders because they had the people’s best interests first and foremost. Trump was elected president by the people to be president for all Americans. We know how that is working out.

The world has come to a fork in the road. Will we remain on the present path to our own demise, or will we take our freedoms and liberties back from this fascist takeover.

The fight, persistence, perseverance, and might MTN has is incredible and divine …. Please don’t ever stop or give in to the pressure to cave and bend the knee💙💙💙💙💙💙🥹

Murdoch and the rest of the corporate media are scared of independent journalists like Meidas. CBS is spending 200 million to acquire Bari Weiss and will control what they report. After CBS News caved to the regime how can anyone trust what is being put out ?!

Those who are not beholden to corporate overlords and the political elite and bring receipts are who the people are trusting more and more each day.

I wonder how many people reading or watching Meidas posts are still also consuming the NFL on CBS (or Fox, ABC or NBC).

Its time to hit them where it hurts. Corporate media has sold out America. So quit putting money in their pockets. BOYCOTT their programming. The bottom line is the only thing that matters to them.

It's true that while David Ellison will serve as the Chairman and CEO of the new Paramount Skydance, Larry Ellison, through his family business entities collectively known as Pinnacle Media, holds the controlling stake in National Amusements Inc., the entity that controls Paramount Global. This effectively makes Larry Ellison the majority shareholder of the company.

Additionally, Oracle, the company founded by Larry Ellison, is reportedly in discussions with Skydance Media for a significant cloud software deal, indicating a potential business relationship between the two entities beyond the ownership structure. Oracle's CEO, Safra Catz, is also a member of the newly formed Paramount Skydance board of directors.

I'm hoping that the son is not the same as the father and that CBS can improve its value by adding voices like Meidas once Paramount takes over. According to Nielson, it doesn't have a single top ranked program. ABC dominates. https://tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/cbs-2024-25-tv-season-ratings-updated/

On social media, Meidas is cleaning Fox's clock. That means the future value may be bigger, especially in stock value. The cost to produce a talk show should cost a fraction of what they've been paying Colbert, which was a losing proposition.

Note that David and his wife donated a $million to the Biden campaign last year. David was "talent" before he became a manager. His wife is Sandra Lynn. https://www.youtube.com/sandralynnmusic

Note that she is still "talent."

It was only a matter of time before Bari Weiss caved to the almighty $. They’ll need to change the name of their org to “The Constrained Press”, “The Muzzled Press” or who knows what.

I once liked Bari Weiss and the Free Press. I no longer trust it.

Thank you for your continued resistance and reporting the TRUTH and what is real !!

Keep up the amazing work of journalism and truth .❤️❤️

Read this and cry harder, Rupert, MAGA, et al. DONALD TRUMP WAS NOT SHOT IN THE FACE. OR ANYWHERE ELSE. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I am an old ER nurse Donald quack whack wasn't shot by a high powered rifle - it was all staged thats why there was little follow up no medical records and his ear is still intact not even a small chunk of skin was removed! What a terrible joke what a fragile ego he has

Can you believe Trump is begging his supporters to send him 15dollars to ensure he goes to heaven. What a grifter. I would gladly send him 100hundreds dollars to dispatch him to HELL!

I finally realize the affinity Murdock has for Trump. Like Trump, Murdock has made his fortune through an absolute disregard for the truth. And like Trump, when facing any challenge, Murdock resorts to more lies.

As a child during the 60s&young adult when Reagan was shot, Trump’s “gun shot” was an anomaly.

We are used to hearing from the doctor who treated the victim. One would think the noise&percussion alone would have warranted a night in the hospital. We heard from law enforcement&press constantly.

In light of this country’s experience with politically motivated shootings,& the oddities of Trump’s own behavior, I think you should go on asking questions.

Murdock is almost dead and so is Trump. It is a party 🎈 time in the USA

“Newly unredacted filings in the $2.7 billion defamation lawsuit brought by voting technology company Smartmatic against Fox News have revealed private messages sent by Fox personalities and executives in the weeks after the 2020 presidential election.

The communications, disclosed through court filings, shed light on how some of the network's most prominent figures discussed the fraud claims they later covered on air.”

Was he on Epstein’s island? Why else would anyone try to protect a child rapist?

Ya’ll need to be safe. We have seen & lived through this insanity (so far) and hatred of the president & his cult. We the people are fortunate to have a community that are not easily distracted and ARE dedicated to supporting our Constitution, Democracy and our values. Thank You for truth!

Bring it on!!! They are going through the archives to find dirt and coming up with dust. If we did that with Fox we would be listing pages and pages of lies. Not sure why anyone watches that garbage.

They’re hooked on it like a drug. Propaganda media should either be forbidden or riddled with disclaimers, like it used to be on social media. It’s absolutely awful to watch people I know be sucked into the mental black hole of FOX propaganda. It’s like watching someone you thought you knew turn into a zombie. Go Meidas!

It's always a great day and a proud day when trump gets a beat down😊Mr rotten hands days are numbered.Stay strong and believe in the cause of freedom" is a powerful expression of encouragement and resilience. It has been used throughout history in various contexts, from political and social movements to personal struggles, to inspire perseverance and faith in a just cause. 🐺🐺👩‍🦽🧍‍♀️🧍‍♂️🤩

You all should be very proud in your fight to resurrect American democracy against bad bad bad bad bad ass hats…. People that care about their pockets and power…at the expense of Americans - beginning with their MAGA MENSA worshippers. Thank you for all you do to bring light to the matter, just like Newsom and others.

I’ve said it before: If Murdoch is taking verbal shots at you; say thank you for the free advertising! Not his intention, but you’ll always know when you hit him where it hurts. I wonder how many FOXies have been asking him about Midas coverage, and why FOX didn’t have that!?

Stay safe please. And thank you. We love you.

And you also have one other thing going for you: you’re on the side of enlightenment; the Murdoch oligarchs are on the Dark side…yet, I believe there’s a “French curse” that goes thusly: May you have a client who’s in the right!

Congratulations on the growth in your supporters. The Australian content is very much appreciated too

Mammals can’t regrow ears. They grow scar tissue to close any gap. There is none of that in or around his ear.

I’m patiently waiting for the next “ attempt “ to try and garner sympathy Or to promote his fund raising grift around ‘ my days are apparently numbered because of lunatic liberals. I need to get to heaven, send $ now’.

Or just maybe the next ‘attempt’ will be a deliberate one, not approved by Trump, that won’t miss and is used to usher in Vance and garner support for him from a shell shocked base he wouldn’t otherwise have support from…
