He first tried to stem the tide of outrage by suggesting that real blacks agree with him:
And when that didn’t work, Murdoch issued this not-very-regretful apology:
Predictably, that didn't do much for Murdoch's image, either.
The Fox News apple doesn’t fall far from the Murdoch tree!

Too late for old man Ruthless Rupert. He is being roasted alive by Twitter.
The old goat needs to step down from News Corporation. At his age, he is no longer incapable to run any company.
NOTE TO MURDOCH SONS
Put your father in a retirement home. He’s finished. You may want to do the same with Roger Ailes. Get rid of him and hire someone younger with fresh ideas.

I'll bet some of his best friends are black, too.
