I believe FOX lost a great deal of credibility with conservative viewers after Thursdays "debate". Once it's gone I don't think it will ever fully return. My first reaction to the opening question was shock and disappointment. I tuned in to see a debate and all I saw was gotcha politics.
That is the good that has come of this, I never thought Faux News was conservative at all, now other conservatives are waking up to this fact.
Tens of thousands of FB posts slamming their egregious behavior would tend to support this. As for myself, I pledge to never consume any media content from any of Rupert Murdoch's properties ever again.
I predict their audience numbers will fall without any corresponding increase for their competitors, as millions more make the smart decision to 'cut the cord' altogether.
Put this post in a mayonnaise jar under Funk and Wagnall's porch. We'll revisit it in about a year.
