As revealed this week, James Murdoch - once his father's heir apparent, now cast as the family black sheep - faced a barrage of 'withering' questions from a lawyer
The Murdoch family is embroiled in a bitter feud, reminiscent of the fictional drama "Succession," with ideological differences driving significant conflict. James Murdoch is central to the dispute, accused by his father Rupert of conspiring with his sisters to seize control of News Corp. Legal battles, including a court case over a trust and the "Project Family Harmony" document, have failed to resolve the rift. The conflict impacts media outlets like Fox News, with James criticizing its support for Donald Trump and Brexit. Past attempts to heal the family, such as a 2010 counseling retreat, have proven ineffective. The feud's depth suggests an irreparable rift, with the family's dysfunction and paranoia about leaks to "Succession" adding to the tension.
