Protesters Rally Outside Murdoch’s NYC Home

HeadlineJul 15, 2011

On Thursday, a crowd of protesters gathered outside Rupert Murdoch’s Central Park home in New York City to urge a congressional investigation into News Corp. Rashad Robinson of the group Color of Change attempted to deliver a petition calling for the firing of analyst Eric Bolling at the Murdoch-owned Fox News for making racist comments.

Rashad Robinson: “Folks are finally willing to stand up to Rupert Murdoch, and at Color of Change and our allies, we say that it’s not just about the wiretapping, but it’s about the agenda, the ugly agenda that is focused on driving Americans apart for far too long.”
