Rupert Murdoch’s vast U.S. media empire—including the Wall Street Journal, Fox News, and the New York Post—has been steadily intensifying its criticism of Vice President JD Vance.

The sustained attacks appear to be a continuation of Murdoch-owned outlets’ failed attempt to dissuade former President Donald Trump from choosing Vance as his running mate during the 2024 presidential election. Since then, the Wall Street Journal alone has published more than a dozen critical pieces targeting Vance, with additional negative coverage appearing in both the New York Post and on Fox News, according to a Breitbart News report on Friday.

Murdoch’s media campaign has sparked frustration among those close to President Trump and Vice President JD Vance. One source familiar with Vance’s thinking told Breitbart News the attacks are clearly part of a globalist effort to undermine the president’s agenda on peace and trade.
Neocons have been screwing up U.S. foreign policy for decades and they’re furious that they have no foothold in this administration,” a source close to Vance told Breitbart News.

“President Trump has ended Houthi terrorist attacks on U.S. ships, freed all living American hostages in Gaza and he’s forcing Russia and Ukraine to the negotiating table and stopping Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. They hate his success because it has exposed them as massive failures,” the source continued.
