Matthew Freud has launched a withering attack on the head of Fox News, a controversial US TV channel owned by his father-in-law, Rupert Murdoch.
Freud told the New York Times he was "ashamed and sickened by Roger Ailes's horrendous and sustained disregard of the journalistic standards that News Corporation, its founder and every other global media business aspires to".
Freud, who is married to Elisabeth, Murdoch's second daughter, was speaking to the paper for a profile of Ailes and prefaced his coment by saying he was "by no means alone within the family or the company" in holding such hostile views of Fox News.

Hmm, if he makes enough noise, do you think that there might be pressure from inside the family (meaning from Rupert Murdoch) to get him divorced from it?
