Twenty-First Century Fox Inc. Chief Executive Officer James Murdoch said in a letter to friends that he was concerned about President Donald Trump’s reaction to the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, and that “standing up to Nazis is essential,” the New York Times reported.

The CEO, son of media mogul and high-profile Trump ally Rupert Murdoch, also said he and his wife will donate $1 million to the Anti-Defamation League, “an extraordinary force for vigilance and strength in the face of bigotry,” according to the letter.
