Rupert Murdoch spoofed on ‘SNL’: Fred Armisen plays News Corp. chief (VIDEO)

The Cutline

Rupert Murdoch and "Fox And Friends," Fox News' loopy morning show, were spoofed on "Saturday Night Live" on Saturday, with Fred Armisen impersonating the 81-year-old mogul. Watch a clip of the cold open above.

Earlier Saturday, Murdoch--who has been using Twitter as an outlet for his unfiltered political views--lamented the medium.

"Seems impossible to have civilised debate on Twitter," Murdoch wrote. "Ignorant, vicious abuse lowers whole society, maybe shows real social decay."
