The mainstream media thinks that if they do that, they'll shut down conservative voices and benefit their "boys", CNN and MSNBC. And they'll once again be in control.
But I think the beneficiaries will be One America, Newsmax, and The Blaze. I wouldn't be surprised to see one of them pick up O'Reilly in some capacity. Whatever else, he's good for ratings -- and he might lift another network to where he helped life Fox.
And the Murdoch boys will try to destroy everyone involved, along with their buddy ?Soros. But it won't work with real Americans.
Not having TV since 1997 makes this a non-story for me. I see TV as strictly an entertainment source. I get my news from the internet. International sources.
And Oreiley has been dead to me since his comentary on the Swift Boat Vets. I’ve seen him as part of the problem ever since.
But Rupert Murdoch wasn’t ever a conservative, either. Almost all of his other media holdings are liberal rags.
What he was, was a smart businessman. He saw a market for a lone conservative news island among the ocean of liberal offerings and created Fox News to cater to it.
I haven’t watched Fox news in years. Quit watching BOR around 2003.
How many wives does he have? Also, it's not clear whether we are talking about Ailes or Murdoch.
Are they coming after the Fox Business channel too? I like that channel better than regular Fox.
Probably.
Fox hasn’t been what is was supposed to be for a long time. Very little that I even tune in fir
Wow. Makes me realize I don’t miss Beck at all. I’m sure there’s a kernel or two of truth buried in there but his egocentric paranoia overwhelms it.
Never miss a chance to attack a fellow conservative if he didn’t do what you wanted. Even when he’s giving you a warning and backing it up with facts.
Liberals in full celebration mode.
And looking for a new scalp. Probably Hannity.
If I may ask, what international sources.
Some years ago I subscribed to Atlas (newer name came later) that had articles of important news events from many different newspapers etc. from various countries.
I will take that into consideration. Thank you for the feedback.
If this Beck account is true, it fits in with a story I saw on another thread about Media Matters' involvement in the "O'Reilly Takedown" and the attempted "Rush Takedown". The other story alleged that MM co-ordinated a campaign of fake outraged Twitter users to bombard the advertisers to the point that the advertisers started to bail. There is nothing to stop MM from using this tactic on One America or The Blaze as well. If those networks are going to survive this total war from the left, they are going to have to have as advertisers conservative companies who don't give a rat's behind about fake outraged tweeters and emailers and petition signers.
Fox news is unwatchable, even Fox Business Network is fading for me. Mornings with Maria has way too much estrogen going on. I watch Varney, Trish Regan, Liz Claman, Charles Payne and Lou Dobbs. That’s it, then it’s reading time, Netflix or a DVR’d classic movie.
Fox is finished. Hannity is still good, but the rest for the most par sucks. Geraldo, Kraut,the no nothing bimbos, Beckel etc. not worth it. Trump should get his own station and get Ailes out of retirement.
And they tried to do the same to Beck, except he just started his own network.
Exact same people in all these cases.

Another station will then be created.
