Rupert Murdoch's NY Post begs Trump
to stop 'cheering for a coup' and accept defeat.

Mr. President, it’s time to end this dark charade.

We’re one week away from an enormously important
moment
for the next four years of our country.

On Jan. 5, two runoff races in Georgia will determine which
party will control the Senate — whether Joe Biden will
have a rubber stamp or a much-needed check on his agenda.

Unfortunately, you’re obsessed with the next day,
Jan. 6,
when Congress will, in a pro forma action,
certify the Electoral College vote.
You have tweeted that, as long as Republicans
have “courage,” they can overturn the results
and give you four more years in office.

In other words,
you’re cheering for an undemocratic coup.

You had every right to investigate the election.
But let’s be clear:
Those efforts have found nothing.
To take just two examples:
Your campaign paid $3 million for a recount
in two Wisconsin counties,
and you lost by 87 more votes.

Georgia did two recounts of the state,
each time affirming Biden’s win.
These ballots were counted by hand, which alone
debunks the claims of a Venezuelan vote-manipulating
Kraken conspiracy.

Sidney Powell is a crazy person.
Michael Flynn suggesting martial law is tantamount
to treason.
It is shameful.

We understand, Mr. President, that you’re angry that you lost.
But to continue down this road is ruinous. We offer this as a newspaper that endorsed you, that supported you

If you want to cement your influence, even set the stage
for a future return, you must channel your fury into
something more productive.
[:
If you insist on spending your final days
in office threatening to burn it all down, that will
be how you are remembered. Not as a revolutionary,
but as the anarchist holding the match.

Murdoch empire calls on Trump to resign or quit as his publications
seek to protect their reputations.

The storming of the US Capitol has triggered
Rupert Murdoch's media empire to call time on Donald Trump, with The Wall Street Journal
saying the president should resign and even acolytes on Fox News telling viewers
he has reached the end of his shelf life.

Murdoch's right-wing outlets helped propel the property tycoon-turned reality TV star
to the White House in 2016, remaining steadfastly loyal for four years before cracks in
the alliance began to appear on re-election day.

Wednesday's rampage around the halls of Congress by a pro-Trump mob, leading to five deaths
and worldwide uproar and condemnation, appears to have sounded the death knell for
the relationship, although the outlets face a tricky balancing act keeping his supporters.

"Trump's no longer going to be President of the United States and the odds of him getting
back to that position someday keep decreasing. So as his power decreases there's
a logic that says, 'Let him go, cut him loose,'"
New York University journalism professor Mitchell Stephens told AFP.

On Thursday, The Wall Street Journal's editorial board did just that, calling on the 74-year-old
Trump to step down before being impeached.

"This week has probably finished him as a serious political figure," said the column, adding:
"It is best for everyone, himself included, if he goes away quietly."

The New York Post tabloid, another staple of the 89-year-old Murdoch's vast media portfolio,
also lashed out at Trump with columnist Michael Goodwin writing that the outgoing president
was responsible for "this day of infamy."

"This time, there is no defense of him. He owns this," wrote Goodwin.

Even Tucker Carlson, the second most-watched TV presenter in the US,
who has remained fiercely loyal to Trump for the past five years, accused
him of "recklessly encouraging" the rioters with an inflammatory speech in
Washington earlier in the day.

"At some point you've got to wonder where our country is putting all of its energy.
Is any single president, anyone, worth all of this time and attention?"
Carlson said during one of his monologues on Fox News.

With politicians from across the spectrum and
world leaders rushing to condemn the actions of the rioters, Mark Feldstein, a journalism professor
at the University of Maryland, says the outlets are "trying to protect their own reputations."

Money, money, money
"I think they're afraid that Trump has finally gone too far. They're putting some distance
between themselves and Trump for their own self-preservation.

"(But) let's not forget they are the ones who enabled Trump...
so they created a Frankenstein monster and they have no one but themselves to blame,"
he told AFP.

Fox News faces a conundrum -- how to put enough distance between itself and Trump without
alienating his loyal fan base who tune in nightly expecting to hear good things about their man.

"It's kind of an interesting dance there," Matt Jordan, associate professor of media studies
at Penn State University, told AFP.

"Probably what Murdoch's doing is trying to have it both ways," he added.

For Feldstein, the decisions will be made based on business, not points of principle.

"It's not about ideology, it's about money, it's about ratings, profits," he said.

Fox News's maneuvering is made all the more delicate by a host of smaller right-wing
upstart channels, most notably Newsmax and One America News Network,
that are grabbing market share by being even further to the right.

Trump's base had already accused Fox News of abandoning their cause after
the network infuriated Trump on election night by calling Arizona for Democrat Joe Biden,
who will be inaugurated as president on January 20.

Even without Trump, Northwestern University professor Jon Marshall expects Murdoch outlets
to "focus sharply on attacks against the Democrats that are going to be in power
and build outrage against them."

"They may be able to hold to their audience by that method," he said.

But the temptation of Trump may never be far away.

"Biden is going to be pretty boring," said Feldstein.

"Television is good at covering emotion, conflict, personalities.
That's why Trump was such nectar for them."
