Rupert Murdoch Admits Fox Lied About 2020 Election in Bombshell Court Filing: A Closer Look - Late Night with Seth Meyers
• Rupert Murdoch Admits ...
Late Night with Seth Meyers
/ latenightseth
And Fox won’t lose a single viewer. Deep down I think they knew they were being lied to, but found they liked it better than the truth.
Actually I don't think they know they're being lied to. I honestly think they are really, really dumb.
But they're gonna lose $1.6bn and also lose credibility / soiled public image. Who's gonna want to advertise with them after that?
@@pietrojenkins6901
the cracked out pillow guy and liberty catheters. the same advertisers they have now.
They're stupid. They don't know any better.
@@imnotyourfriendbuddy1883 aww man. You responded with what I was going to say.
As an Aussie, I apologise to the rest of the world for not taking Murdoch down before he inflicted his empire upon you.
As an American, thank you for not holding Seth's atrocious Australian accent against us.
As an American, I apologize to the rest of the world for Trump.
Hey, it's also partly Reagan's fault, so don't feel too bad.
We’ll trade you for all your (terrifying) huntsman spiders if you take Murdoch back..
@@Tonyhouse1168 not a fair trade, of the two options only Murdoch does major harm.
As an Aussie, Seth's "most cartoonish Australian accent" is actually better than almost all of American actors attempts ever, he literally sounds like at least five blokes I know from the pub aye 😅
I swear to god that Seth somehow managed to talk over himself while doing the two voices during the Murdoch bit. It's a miracle - just like the 2020 election.
Do you swear to imaginary friends often?
Except that the 2020 election was not a miracle, what it was was fed-up voters giving their vote to Biden….
Perhaps you may want to take some serious time to consider why that happened
@@nickislade5533 and you might want to watch the entire monologue as that was a callback :-)
@@SuperDirk1965 I only swear to the real god - Odin All-Father. Ramen.
Yep. It was a "miracle" that that babbling, braindead bobble head won.
I wish Dominion every success in their law suit against Fox News and their hosts.
I second that.
Does FN have a lawyer to tell Rupert Murdoch the consequences
? 😂
Put them down.
In addition to paying damages, they should be forced to admit they lied on air.
I want Dominion to turn fixednews into the worlds largest Jiffy Lube.
Fox News can't "We're just Entertainers" their way out of this one. They knew exactly what they were doing. 🧏🏿♂️🙆🏻♀️
Do you think CNN and MSNBC knew they were lying to you every single night for two-and-a-half years about Russia collusion of course they did they played you for a fool they're not stupid I figured you were stupid
I wish their viewership realized Fox is just entertainment...
This episode deserves an award. So many easter eggs!
Dude that ending was top tier! I usually only chuckle at the tucker carlson bit, but the compass app followed by fake news to close totally got me😂
They should be banned from broadcasting, forever. Billions of dollars in penalties doesn't even cut it when it comes to the damage they've caused.
I wonder what percentage of Trumpists already knew it was false and DID. NOT. CARE.
100%
I totally agree with you, but Newsmax will prolly take Fox's place. In some ways, they have.
Majority of them will never admit or believe any of this.
Exactly and thank you.
Because of Donald Trump Fox News and the rest of the perpetrators that told that big lie that lady get killed at the capital they should be charged with murder I'm talking about Ashley Babbitt
I love how Seth tells his jokes like he's in a room full of friends instead of a host talking to an audience.
Well, he also knows he has all of us at home so he is in a room full of friends.
And friends also want you to be your best, hence Corrections.
@@anro7137 showin off the emmy and the one he'll get
Seth really gives me the feeling like he's telling his jokes for his own amusement and the fact that we love them is a bonus
@@Guxx thats what i love about corrections. all indulgence all the time.
I went years and years only reading the news and so not knowing what any of these [censored for YT] politicians and FN hosts sounded like, and was very happy about that. The highest compliment I can give Seth is that A Closer Look is so good it makes breaking that streak worth it.
"I don't need an app to tell you're not fully with me . . ." Brilliant! 😆 Thank you as always to you and to your incredible crew, Mr. Meyers. Great "A Closer Look." Sometimes you have to laugh so you don't cry . . .
Why does Seth's impression of an Australian end up sounding like a drunk Mitch McConnell? 😂😂
Vocal range, or lack thereof.
OH I HOPE Dominion and Smartmatic DON'T SETTLE!
This case is absolutely DESTROYING Fox "news"
only if they settle for every last cent FOX and Murdoch have.
Dominion has everything they need, and Rupert knows it!
Seth, you're one of the people who have made me laugh, really laugh, and given me hope in this world. Thank you.
His gig at the White House Correspondents Dinner in Obama's last year was hilarious!!! His digs at the orange turd were perfect, and everyone thought it was hilarious except tRump.
@@caroljo420 ...and as a result Trump ran for President, thus ensuring Seth had material for years and years. Playing the long game.
Best monologue I have heard in years. Congrats to your writers, and an amazing performance Seth.
The pandemic made a few things better. Seth is the King of those few things.
He is the second best now behind john oliver
Please never stop doing Tucker Carlson impressions, they are the highlight of my evening whenever they pop up
Thought he’d never get to it.
The best part was when he inserted the lyrics to One Of Us.
Sounds like an exciting life you got going on now
Murdoch: Yeah we lied and we will keeping doing it because what can you do to stop us when our viewers don't care
But what about their advertisers jumping ship?
Revoke their broadcast license.
Their main advertiser is the “My Pillow” guy, remember.
So Murdoch was lying then but now he’s telling the truth? How convenient.
@@larrydigangi4707 No, he's just not committing perjury.
Absolute brilliance!! One of the best I've seen and as an Aussie I love the roasting of our accent, which we all know you love😁 Wombat🤣
People really need to lay off the Fox Kool Aid, though.
I was not expecting a Joan Osborne reference to show up in a closer look, that’s why we love you Seth and team, your ability to sneak in references from the 80’s and 90’s are much appreciated
Powell and Giuliani, as well as all the Fox “hosts” should be made to pay the billions.
I hope so too!! I hope Fox & all it's on air liars end up bankrupt!!
Murdoch's got it.
I think Trump should pay it. He is behind all this
I'm hoping Ghouliani and Powell lose their license to practice law.
Exactly and thank you.
I love, when Seth does the Tucker "just-asking-questions" thing. Really exposed the whole dishonesty of it AND is funny as heck!
I have met people like that in real life. At universities, no less! With their innocently smug faces asking inflammatory stuff like "How do YOU know that 6 million died? Were YOU there to count every single one of those Jews? I'm just asking questions here, is that not allowed?" 🤦♂
There is nothing funny about heck.
Great Tucker impersonation, has the vocal quality and cadence down perfectly!
Did you see the aposing protesters? So sad all the Biden voters got trampled over its almost like they weren't even there! R.I.P invisible Biden voters. Good thing the TV will tell us what's REALLY going on outside.
If a conservative tries to get you in that 'just-asking-questions' trap, remember
You don't have to answer them. Tell them they're manipulative fucks, you see through their game, and you're not going to play along. The scientific and historical evidence is there and you don't have anything to prove.
Seth has been knocking it out of the park with Closer Look this week. That awful Australian accent was so dang funny!
Let's hope Dominion sues Murdoch for everything he has got.
Correction: Because you stated that her voice already carried so much without a microphone, Jeanine Pirro’s voice should not have cut out after the breakers all flipped.
I was looking to see if anyone else noticed that! #goJackals!
Seth mocking Carlson's psycho questioning rants has become my new favorite ongoing bit
That’s the really bad part. They reported news that they knew was a lie.
"We have a lots of evidence," I wonder why she doesn't take her "evidence " to any legal court, she is a lawyer, isn't she?
Her evidence came from the "wind". She is a "medium". No lie, she said that is where the evidence came from. She saw it in vision. 🤦♂️
@@profanepersonality A 'medium', which means she's neither well done, nor rare.
She did take a case to a Michigan court. It went well. The Judge discovered she forged another lawyers signature, ruled the case insane and recommended she be disbarred.
Good question.
"She is a lawyer, isn't she?" Is a question state bar associations have REALLY been dragging their heels on answering!
Am I the only one who finds it hilarious (and kinda adorable) that Seth laughs at himself during his jokes 🤣🤣
No, it is adorable.
Cute as a funny button 🥰
Someone's got to laugh
Speaking of adorable, we've got @Dan Mcgriff; the little boy who couldn't laugh. He spends all his time commenting about how sad he is. 😪
A joke isn't real unless you tell it for your own joy.
Correction: if she was loud enough without a microphone to be heard (per the joke) you would still hear her after the lights went out.
Horrible, the lack of humanity.
That woke M&M's bit absolutely killed me.
As an Australian, there were very brief points in that impression where Seth hit a perfect Australian accent. And that's a good effort!
Kinda sounded like a drunk Steve Irwin
You are soooo kind😂😅❤❤
This is like “even a stopped clock is right once a day”.
@@lawrencedoliveiro9104 Twice a day.
As a fellow Australian , I love Americans doing outrageous Australian accents. It's always hilarious and a little bit too close for comfort sometimes!
Strangley no-one ever comments on British actors doing terrible American accents in film and TV roles and pretending it sound authentic (eg Damian Lewis)
Coming back to the compass app during the Tucker Carlson bit was brilliant. 😂😂😂👏🏽
The attorney-Murdoch conversation really had me in tears for several minutes, the kind of tummy ache belly laugh that I couldn't stop. Especially when he started to ad-lib. Thanks, I needed that this morning.
I never tire of Seth Meyers jokes about Republicans
Target rich environment.
Me niether.satire makes America great
Refudgenicans
*repugnicans
But he still can't win against Republicans.
I mean, the jokes even wrote themselves
The sad part about this is none of these lying tools will face any accountability.
And their followers won't give a stuff. Truth doesn't matter to them.
At least the lying hypocrites on Fox News were well-paid for their ridiculously obvious untruths.
D’oh!
Yup.
It ain't over till it's over. We can hang tight and hope... and per chance get pleasantly surprised😃
@@anic5805 or USA will drown in fascism... considering mostly conservatives breed... libs are busy changing their gender and date same sex.
Why are those traitors still alive?
OMG. - there is no depth that these people will not sink to !!!!! 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
The landing on the compass joke was flawless.
As a New Zealander, that was a very accurate representation of the Australian accent.
How often have you been to Australia? lol
@@catherinelewis1951 We also get Aussie shows like Neighbours, and Aussies that visit and get Drunk here so between media and people you'd dont have to goto to know
Certainly sounded like a Drunk Aussie Tradie 😂
And one of the rarest type of Australian - a sober one.
@@catherinelewis1951 r/woooosh
Aw man this was a perfect opportunity to call back the sea captain 😞😂
Seth, you’re a good guy…wish you and your family much success.
Seth should be doing "NBC Nightly News"!
we can't even say exactly what should be done to them because polite society won't allow an honest assessment of just how you should deal with people who are literally trying to destroy your society.
Destroying society for the sake of their own stock
Sending them to Russia comes to mind...
The only meaningful consequence is a financial one. It's the only thing that matters to them.
because "polite society" is orchestrated by the same kinds of people.
When Seth does Tucker Carlson, it makes the rest of my day. But Rupert Murdock AND Tucker!? I'm set for the month.
that pirate sounded awfully close to Sea Captain so im good for a while.
Seth's voice isn't annoying enough or nearly whiney enough to do an accurate Tucker Carlson.
Murdoch?
Man, that Murdoch impression just killed me! Love the fact Seth breaks midway through. That bit was Cat 5 hilarious. Came back to watch it again and laughed like I just saw it for the first time.
I love how Seth lets us in into the making of of his jokes!
When I saw the film Network back in the 70's I didn't fully understand the satire but as the decades rolled along and Fox News drifted away from being a news organisation and more about sensationalism directed at attracting ratings I saw how prophetic the film was. I doubt Paddy Cheyefsky could have dreamed up a Tucker Carlson, a Lou Dobbs, a Sean Hannity and thought: No one is going to believe anything so ridiculous. The GOP and the Republican party have become a dark satire that some future generation will look back at a shake their heads in utter disbelief that these individuals actually existed. They are like mythical trolls who lurk under bridges and wait for unsuspecting travellers. But there is no point trying to shame that which has no shame. They are fully aware of the effect they've had and their place in history as traitors is secure. There is no act of contrition they can perform to redeem themselves. If they had any morals they would have resigned from the network years ago. But the Laura Ingrahams and Maria Bartiromos have sold their soul to the Big Lie and supplicate themselves at the alter of Trump.
Keith Olbermann has a podcast where he dishes all the dirt on network & cable news. There’s some bizarre stories that doesn’t even include fox. 109 is probably the craziest.
Well said deeply.
You must be joking. Right?
Well put. I always thought Network prophetic, too.
Like, uh, damn.
Always a joy and a pleasure to see new vids from Seth, Jimmy and Stephen, I watch them all in a row
Our BEST "news sources" NOW! You WILL NOT HEAR TRUTH in ANY "evening newscasts" today! BLOWVATORS are "the norm".
Kimmel? Yeah it's Kimmel.
Seth reading the Murdoch transcript in that accent had me effing dying! 😂 Oh man i needed that. A Closer Look never fails
Can there be a Pirro/Lindell YELL-OFF?????
I found this segment to be in the top 10 funniest of all Seth's shows. Great job!
“When people begin with a false premise and lead people astray, that’s injurious to society and it’s the antithesis of what we should be doing: Those of us who are so honored and grateful to have a platform of public influence have to use it for the public good.” Shep Smith discussing why he left Fox.
Aaamen!
Sooooo…. You think that by Smith leaving Fox while ignoring the plethora of journalists leaving the left/woke side of MSM proves something?
All it proves is that your just another bias, hypocritical, blind liberal.
I sure hope you never get called to be on a jury.
and in this case the injury extends beyond USA as Trump became a role model for antisystem no-solutions-offered-but-angry-as-hell "politicians" in many countries.
Tough, Shep. Too little too late, you hack.
@@ruialexandre6197 omg yes.
- someone from a redneck province in Canada.
I love Seth’s Tucker impressions. The longer the better … and bonus for the compass app!
Here! Here! 😍
🥳🥳🥳
That impression camp Seth went to last summer really paid off!
In Michigan, at her last legal frolic here, the judge fined her to cover all the state's court costs for a nonsense claim, and announced a letter was going to her home state recommending she be disbarred. Hurrah!
The Rupert Murdoch impersonation is the best. PLEASE KEEP IT! "The wombat" LOOOOOL IM DYING.
As an Aussie I found your Australian accent really cartoonish and never laughed so hard as I watched over and over again. The worst part is, it actually sounds like us, a bit. Brilliant stuff!
Of course, the biggest key to an Aussie accent is to understand that the alphabet does not begin with A, B, C - but rather I, B, C
@@edgarcayce2.02 And your friends are mites.
I read your comment in an outrageous Aussie accent!
O come on! Sounds nothing like us.
I thought he sounded like one of those narrators of early ‘70s nature docos, about the Outback or wombats. Not quite Aussie, not quite English, but quite pissed either way.
Just goes to show that in the end the truth will previel. Sad part is how many families have been torn apart, and people's lives turned upside down due to said lies.
And lives that were lost on January 6. Because of their lies.
This!!!
*prevail.
I don't think MSNBC or CNN cares they just keep lying every single night
I almost peed my pants during the "Australian" bit ! Bravo
I saw this and thought for a moment things were ok again. NOPE!
As an Aussie I love the love by Seth in his excellent care in recreating an Aussie accent. " Dobbsie !" perfect
As I lived in Oz for fifteen years ... Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi ... I agree. Spot on.
I love when Seth does a Tucker rant!! Makes my ENTIRE day!!🤣🤣 the compass was an added bonus
It's one of my favorite impressions Seth does. It's always soooo good.
Does a perfect job!
Ok, fine. The compass bit totally paid off in the end 🤣🤣
One of his best closer looks he’s done.
I had completely wiped from my mind the way Sydney Powell always sounded like she was close to tears reading a ransom note to the camera with a gun pointed at her head. Now I have to start all over again...
Haha, perfect. Yeah, there just is little/no authenticity in her demeanor
I can still count the number of “women with punch-able faces” on one hand, but before 2020 that number was 0.
@@moresnacksplease526 You're a much better person than me...
I love how a closer look is drifting closer to corrections
ACL needs to stay itself. It can and does feed Corrections but it shouldn’t blur into it. Don’t dilute such a good thing as Corrections. Slightly greedy Jackal, yes.
@An Ro Per your last sentence, just curious, are you channeling Gollum or Yoda?
Again, jc, no judgment either way!
@John O’Brien Took me a sec to understand what you were asking! Then I visualized a hand wringing Yoda and busted out laughing. Thanks!
I had to actually clap at the final compass call back. Bravo!
I had to scrape myself off the floor after that Murdoch Australian accent bit. Hilarious. I'm still laughing.
The random wombat was gold😆😂🤣
"Whenever I'm in front of an audience, I kill 😉"
Love the timing and placement of cutaways to Wally, they make such perfect use of him.
sad that many faux viewers will either not hear this direct hypocrisy or dismiss it as a myth if they do
You know cult members are not allowed to question the head of the cult
Kind of like you and MSNBC right
Interesting. I guess I missed the part where MSNBC was the judge presiding over the lawsuit between Dominion and Fox. Really seems like a conflict of interest there. 🧐
That was EASILY the best and most realistic impersonation of Rupert Murdoch in existence. Please keep that one just as-is, Seth!!!!!
When it comes to rants about useless apps, Seth really is our North Star.
"Y'all got egg-money" is hilarious! (I really miss eggs...) PS - Foxx was prolly giving out Desantis t-shirts in the parking lot by their remote van, and she just happily took one, hence the non-committal stance. "Captive to the audience THEY created" is a perfect summation.
SOLID CATCH! That's definitely what happened!
Missed a golden opportunity to bring back the Sea Captain for the compass app. 🤦🏾♂️
That Australian accent. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I NEARLY SPAT MY TEA OUT!
That call-back was amazing.
Well done Seth and team!
Saw it coming a mile away; enjoyed it immensely any-way.
Always love Seth's impressions of Tucker, but the songs lyrics were icing on the cake ❤😂😂😂
I'm an archaeologist and I use the compass on my phone a ton.
Wally isn't just a killer, he's also a thief, who stole my heart.
Correction. He stole all of our hearts
And they will literally just keep on going and pretend like nothing's wrong or has ever happened as their lies lead to more and more violence
Some of them will watch the violence and the killing for 3.5 hours and say nothing despite being the "Commander in Chief."
Rig is rig. It doesn't matter. A party can't prosecute other player for rig the election nor another party can prosecute other party for spread true or you can said lie despite your own party really stole the election. The political base on balance of power and no one can prosecute other unless military. Can demo party control 80% of troops in the entire usa? If it can than you can prosecute anyone. But right now you control less than 23%. Some are gay lol.
I love your show, always make me smile, keep exposing the hypocrites and idiots, god knows there are a lot of them.
The real miracle was that I was shaving during that Joan Osbourne bit and didn't cut myself. 😂
SCREAMING at the fact that all-star is playing in the diner where brian kilmeade is trying to find desantis supporters there's just something about it that so perfectly fits the vibe
As I see it, I still can't believe it! I've never seen/felt THAT vibe at 6:33 A.M. I've seen 6:33 A.M. but THAT vibe was NEVER present!
It’s time … for at least one indictment.
Perfect Murdoch impression Seth! Right up there with your Nichalos Cage one.
The Rupert Aussie voice is killing me! Sean "The Wombat" Hannity......🤣🤣🤣
Seth, we need more of your Tucker Carlson rambling impression 😂
Imagine working at a fast food restaurant and she is placing an order via the speaker box!!!!
I shudder to think how many innocent people she put in prison during her law career.
Even worse would be Jr’s ex gf.
@@sunshine3914 imagine them two together, talking… about Trump! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
My dad got us lost in the woods one time and I used the compass app to get out. So stop hating on the poor compass app! IT SAVES LIVES SETH! It saves lives.
Another brilliant segment show team and writers !
YES, Seth and Team for a brilliant segment!!! Well done on a funny and scathing takedown of these faux-holes
I can see "Beavis and Butthead", laughing, saying she said f-h.
Irony..? They're _genuine_ assholes.
They're volunteers, so who is going to be fired?!
This is the best Wally appearance so far. He really does kill!
I've been watching Seth's Closer Look segments for years now. This is easily one of the better ones he's ever done. VERY entertaining!
I like them all!
word up! I hammered that like button. :)
The darker the world gets, the more we appreciate comedy.
@Courage Karnga ...but less so for the compass app!
Well-crafted.
“Mmmmm… maybe, I just wanted to be asked” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Why am I laughing at these simpletons 😂😂😂😂
At 15:45 Tucker has that classic "did I just poop on the carpet again" look on his face!
Someone needs to compile seths tucker rants, brilliant every single time 😂
Just gotta love the take downs that Seth and his writers come up with in this segment everytime it airs.
Thanks to you and the writers. You let me know there are sane people in this sad world. (Wine also helps.)
Haha weed for me.
Summed up my late-night reality nicely!
Wish I could like this twice ❤
i smoke this weed called Jupiter. its outta this world.
Yes, wine.
The Murdoch dialogue cracked me up Seth!!! Where’s that one man show?😂
