Inside Rupert Murdochs Succession Drama
Matt is joined by Vanity Fair special correspondent Gabriel Sherman to discuss his latest story on Rupert Murdoch, where this empire stands now, and how this 'Succession'-like story will end. The past year has been tumultuous within Fox News and the family of the 92-year-old conservative media mogul. Matt and Gabriel discuss the complicated succession plan, the family\u2019s obsession with \u2018Succession\u2019, Rupert\u2019s recent divorce from Jerry Hall, a broken engagement to Ann Lesley Smith, and the state of Rupert\u2019s health. Matt finishes the show with a prediction about the opening weekend for Universal\u2019s \u2018Renfield\u2019.\n\nFor a 20 percent discount on Matt\u2019s Hollywood insider newsletter, \u2018What I\u2019m Hearing ...,\u2019 click this link: puck.news/thetown\xa0\n\nEmail us your thoughts! thetown@spotify.com\n\nHost: Matt Belloni\nGuest: Gabriel Sherman\n\nProducer: Craig Horlbeck\nTheme Song: Devon Renaldo\nLearn more about your ad choices.
