«Breaking News» Former News Corp. senior vice president resigned over Fox News's 'extreme anti-Muslim rhetoric'

A former News Corp. senior vice president says he resigned over what he calls Fox News's 'extreme anti-Muslim rhetoric' after immigrating to the U.S. as a refugee from Afghanistan


Joseph Azam, 37, told NPR coverage on Rupert Murdoch's network 'fundamentally bothered' him, saying 'it worries me that, you know, what's being put out into the universe could actually create a lot of risk for [my children].' 


He left his post as the group chief compliance officer for News Corp.'s corporate headquarters in late 2017 after joining the company in 2015.  


Azam said: 'Scaring people. Demonizing immigrants. Creating, like, a fervor — or an anxiety about what was happening in our country.


'It fundamentally bothered me on a lot of days and I think I probably wasn't the only one.'


As part of his argument Azam referenced a tweet by Murdoch which said: 'Maybe most Moslems peaceful, but until they recognize and destroy their growing jihadist cancer they must be held responsible.'

News Corp. and Fox News are technically separate entities but are still both controlled by the Murdoch family. 


News Corp. is the parent company of The Wall Street Journal and the New York Post among others.


Fox News' parent company is Fox Corporation.  


The channel has faced growing pressures in recent weeks following host Judge Jeanine Pirro remarks suggesting that US Representative Ilhan Omar's hijab meant that she subscribes to Sharia law.


Her show was kept off air for a second week in a row following the opening monologue of her show on March 9,  in which Pirro claimed that Omar's hijab was a sign that she was committed to the religious law which originates from the Quran, adding that it was 'antithetical' to the constitution. 


Fox News 'strongly' condemned the views expressed by Pirro, saying: 'They do not reflect those of the network and we have addressed the matter with her directly.'


Media Matters also released 40 transcripts in which another Fox News host, Tucker Carlson, made a number of racist, sexist and misogynistic while appearing as a guest on the shock jock radio program 'Bubba the Love Sponge' between 2006 and 2011. 


And Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez lashed out at Laura Ingraham and her Fox News guest for mocking the way she pronounces her name, saying she's doing 'the Latina thing'.

Azam, who came to the United States as a toddler from Kabul, even tweeted Fox News presenter Tucker Carlson in 2017.   


Carlson tweeted: '#Tucker: Why does America benefit from having tons of people from failing countries come here?'


Azam replied: 'If you come upstairs to where all the executives who run your company sit and find me I can tell you, Tucker. #Afghanistan.'


He claims he was then told he should not attack others working in the Murdoch empire and took the tweet down. 


Azam added: 'My issue with this isn't as an American Muslim. It's not as a refugee. It's not as an immigrant. It's as an American.


'I live here. I have kids here. And it worries me that, you know, what's being put out into the universe could actually create a lot of risk for them.'


He even took a shot The Wall Street Journal, calling it The New York Post 'dressed up in a tuxedo'. 




Ingraham was speaking to conservative lawyer Joe diGenova when they started mocking freshman Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for saying her name with an accent

Azam said: 'It was very eloquent, mostly. It was policy-backed, at a certain level.


'In a very subtle and eloquent way, it was kind of like the stuff that would happen in the [New York Post], dressed up in a tuxedo.'


Former Sky News Australia producer, Rashna Farrukh, this week tweeted that she had quit the News Corp. owned channel following the New Zealand terror attack.


Fox News declined to comment on Azam's claims. DailyMail.com has contacted News Corp. for comment.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
