I think you nailed it, Elle Bee. There is a hunger amongst Conservatives that isn’t being filled by Faux News anymore.
And it’s not just cuz they have gone left.

It’s because they are predictable and boring. Roger and Co. are catering to an audience that are not as savvy as we are: the go along. get along GOP/moderate/linguine spined independents?

Too many ads that are gut wrenchingly annoying.

One of the Mittens voters from a nursing home in Fla. said that decided to vote for him because the nice commentators on Fox seemed to like him..so that was good enough for her.

My recent top five list of nails on a blackboard FNC pundits:
1. Rove; duh
2. Dana: dumb as a box o’
3. Kirsten P.: “
4. Bret B.: a beaming Democrat who pretends he’s not.
5. Hume: Brit, we thought we knew ye. WTH?

Please add your own. No Dems like Colmes or Beckel. We already know who they are.

We are weary of this primary season and Fox is letting us down and not providing comfort for our addled brains.

Thus, I rec. that you try weaning yourself from the vacant station by either watching only certain shows(Greta, Cavuto) or go cold turkey like I did.
I’m Faux Free and Proud to Be.

It’s very refreshing to have replaced my “white noise”
with Josh Groban and my old John Denver CDs.

Recommendations:
News and political, Fox Business, Free Republic.
Conservative talk show: Levin.

that seems the better course

FOX as a conservative news source isn't ever going to be and the Bill Kristols and Tokyo Roves have molded the network the way they have molded their candidate

It shouldn't be all that hard to start another cable news network ... there is clearly a market there ... lord knows my satellite has a thousand channels of nothing

and whenever I see Kirsten Powers I ask myself, why would I listen to the opinion of a woman who dated Anthony Wiener?

Consider the audience out there ... Ted Baxter is the most highly rated cable show

FOX has opted for the low hanging fruit

MM you nailed it. I would love to know fox's numbers. They always bragged the mslsd, cnn,...had only 600,000 and they had millions. Imagine if we all watched CNN (we know what to except from them at least) and fox had 600,000 and cnn went over a million. Ya think they would have to do some brain storming? they take us for granted, just like the establishment. Oh wait, they are part of the establishment.
