As corporations pay shakedown settlements, the 94-year-old right-wing media mogul has an opportunity to resist Trump’s assaults on the First Amendment.

The lawsuit sets the stage for another legal showdown initiated by Trump against the media, this time against his close ally.

Donald Trump has sued Rupert Murdoch and his media companies over a Wall Street Journal report on his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Vice President JD Vance reportedly met with News Corp founder Rupert Murdoch just hours before the Wall Street Journal published a surprise story about the friendship between President Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein.

Prior to the Wall Street Journal ’s publication of its story July 17, Trump spoke to Murdoch and urged him to stop the story’s release, according to Trump’s post on Truth Social. Trump has since filed a $10 billion defamation lawsuit against Murdoch and the WSJ. Epstein was first arrested for soliciting prostitution in 2006.
