The reporters, Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns, say that Biden was even more critical of Fox Corp patriarch Rupert Murdoch. According to the book, Biden told an unnamed associate in mid-2021 that Murdoch was "the most dangerous man in the world." Many Biden allies have denounced Fox for those reasons and have blamed Rupert Murdoch and his son Lachlan, the company's CEO, for enabling hosts like Tucker Carlson. Biden sometimes tangles with Fox's White House correspondent Peter Doocy, and was caught on a hot mic in January calling Doocy "a stupid son of a bitch." This story was first published on CNN.com, "Biden called Murdoch the 'most dangerous man in the world,' new book alleges."
