Well iirc the kids he tried to cut out are a lot less conservative than he and his favored son are, which is why he even tried this move. Guy wants to ensure his media empire stays a political device of the oppressor class, while the other kids might want to stop that, or hopefully will at least damage the ropagabda machine in the power struggle process.

So while I don’t consume any of their media I can still appreciate this, because it might help to destroy the murdoch empire.
