Media mogul Rupert Murdoch on Saturday defended Dr. Ben Carson from the media’s scrutiny, as the retired neurosurgeon faces questions about numerous stories he has told about his past.

Murdoch, the co-executive chairman of 21st Century Fox, said that members of the media have simply targeted Carson due to his faith.

Carson seems to have won by standing up immediately and answering doubters. Seems CNN/NYT etc all hate faith based people. — Rupert Murdoch (@rupertmurdoch) November 7, 2015

Fair to scrutinize, but not twist findings. No such attacks on non-religious candidates. Even scrutiny of other leaders would help. — Rupert Murdoch (@rupertmurdoch) November 7, 2015

Facts are facts, but personal opinions and wisdom evolve with life experience. So judge present positions and hold politicians to them. — Rupert Murdoch (@rupertmurdoch) November 7, 2015

Media reports have called into question whether Carson was telling the truth about his violent past, a psychology exam he took at Yale University, and an offer he received to attend West Point.
