Arguably the biggest winner of Tuesday’s court case was a man who was not directly involved. That would be Rupert Murdoch, the largest shareholder of Fox.

Fox News reached an agreement Tuesday to settle a series of discriminations lawsuits brought by 18 former and current employees of the news network. 21st Century Fox, the parent company of Fox News, agreed to pay nearly $10 million.

21st Century Fox reported lower third-quarter earnings due, the company said, to a lack of Super Bowl revenue.

Trump holds Murdoch in high esteem, frequently calling him for advice despite his criticism of the president on issues like illegal immigration.

21st Century Fox, the parent company of Fox Sports and FS1, just announced an uptick in earnings for both the fourth quarter as well as the year. With a significant portion of that growth attributed to sports. Meanwhile, over at Disney, ESPN continues to drag the brand through the mud with massive subscriber and financial losses.
