It’s a publicly traded company. They have a responsibility to the other shareholders to not run it into the ground.

There are so many outlets on the web to get breaking news and commentary by like-minded folks, I just don’t understand why anyone needs to watch a news program between 8:00-11:00. Watch something that makes you happy instead.

Used to faithfully watch Fox News but abruptly stopped watching, cold turkey, on Election Night (the early call for Arizona was the final straw).

Now happily watching OAN & Newsmax.

I do hope their compensation is indexed to ratings.

And, in the quietest moments, hopefully they regret joining in the swamper mania to ‘call’ states. It’s strictly an exercise in ego but it produced a disastrous knock-on effect.

One minute they claim their calls were valid, the next they disclaim any responsibility.

They’re as cowardly as they are confused. But always smug.

Good that they just renewed Ingraham’s contract. Wonder how they’re going to pay for it.

FNC ratings will rebound when there is a biden administration to attack. maybe even higher than before. bookmark this thread for later reference.

take it to the bank. it will happen.

We need to drive their viewership down to ZERO.

Then we can say :

WE DID IT !!

I agree with you. Tucker is terrific. I still watch him, and will occasionally watch some of Fox & Friends while I’m getting ready for work, while switching back and forth to Chris Salcado’s show.

The crap the left keeps putting out about Tucker is really horrific, about how he’s an anti-semite and a NAZI for blaming problems on a “jew,” i.e. George Soros. You try to explain to those booger eating morons that George Soros was raised by a NAZI, who saved him from the Holocaust, but that father WAS directly involved with the NAZI party, and it was where Soros learned to hate Jews. Soros is every bit a Jew as was Karl Marx, i.e., was born Jewish, but raised to hate Jews and Judaism, and became virulently anti-Semitic.

That is what they are expecting RINOs returning to the fold. Conservatives and MAGA voters need to stay away. Even if they are down 33% from last year that is substantial.

I will become an independent on January 21 but I won’t be watching Fox News even then.

that’s unlikely. neither oann nor newsmax have the distribution or the on air talent to realistically compete. that’s just the way it is.

FNC will get the sh*t scared out of them (if they haven’t already) they’ll make the necessary changes to the editorial tone of their news broadcasts, their audience will mostly return, and all of that is a good thing.

The wife hung in there with Carlson after his backstabbing of Sydney Powell, then she’d stay for Hannity and Ingraham. I would leave the room for anything Fox.

The wife has finally come around...and there’s zero Fox in this household. We’ve moved on to Newsmax.

“ FNC will get the sh*t scared out of them (if they haven’t already) they’ll make the necessary changes to the editorial tone of their news broadcasts, their audience will mostly return, and all of that is a good thing.”

No that is not a good thing. That means you are happy to have them change their tune to get back the audience needed to bill advertisers more. It does not mean they believe a damn thing they say. Are you the type that happily believes it is raining while some one pisses down your back or are you the type to stand up and tell them to stop pissing down my back or else. If you go back to FOX because the parrot what you want to hear..... Well enjoy the rain.
