RBG Family Condemns Award to Musk and Murdoch
TL;DR
The family of the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg criticized the Dwight D. Opperman Foundation for choosing to honor Tesla CEO Elon Musk and conservative media mogul Rupert Murdoch with the RBG Award, calling it an "affront" to her memory. The family stated that they do not support using Ginsburg's name to celebrate this year's recipients and do not endorse the award. The foundation's decision to honor controversial figures Musk and Murdoch has sparked controversy, with the family asserting that the recipients do not reflect Ginsburg's legacy of fighting for gender equality.
