Trump Lashes Out at Fox News Poll as Barr Meets With Murdoch
Attorney General William P. Barr met privately Wednesday evening with Rupert Murdoch, the media mogul who is one of President Trump's frequent confidants but whose Fox News is viewed by the president as more hostile toward him than it used to be.
The meeting was held at Mr. Murdoch’s home in New York, according to someone familiar with it. It was unclear if anyone else attended or what was discussed. Aides to both Mr. Murdoch and Mr. Barr declined requests for comment on the meeting.

What reason could the U.S. Attorney General has for meeting privately with a billionaire who just happens to own News Corp? Was he there to complain to Murdoch that his Fox News isn't treating Trump good enough? What's he going to do about that, threaten Murdoch or work out a pay for play deal with him on Trump's behalf?
So many questions, so few answers.
