http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/james-murdoch-rips-trump-standing-up-nazis-is-essential-1030778The head of Fox News' parent company just took a shot at the U.S. president his network consistently defends.
James Murdoch, CEO of 21st Century Fox and son of conservative media mogul and executive chairman Rupert Murdoch, lashed out at President Donald Trump on Thursday in an email to friends that was obtained by The Hollywood Reporter. In the memo, the exec took a stand against Trump after the president's comments about the attack in Charlottesville, Va., and pledged to donate $1 million to the Anti-Defamation League.
[W]hat we watched this last week in Charlottesville and the reaction to it by the President of the United States concern all of us as Americans and free people, Murdoch wrote in his note.
He continued: I cant even believe I have to write this: standing up to Nazis is essential; there are no good Nazis. Or Klansmen, or terrorists. Democrats, Republicans, and others must all agree on this, and it compromises nothing for them to do so.
The comments come as President Trump is increasingly under fire for laying fault for the racially charged violence in Charlottesville on "both sides" and suggesting that some of the white supremacists involved are "good people."

Trump is just getting started. He's going to say was worse things in the coming days and weeks. He will call for whites to murder minorities soon, or worse.
Rupert's kids have always been a threat to swing FOX back to sanity.
