Rupert Murdoch Causes Twitter Meltdown With Tweet About Barack Obama

Media mogul Rupert Murdoch recently caused social media chaos with a tweet about US President Barack Obama.


The tweet was apparently in response to Ben Carson, a politician who is running for the Presidency, and his appearance on a Fox News segment called Kelly File, hosted by Megyn Kelly. It was preceded up by a promotional tweet for Carson’s appearance…
