We will black out Fox News starting tonight. Murdoch and his spoiled boys should not get to brag about ratings if every program but Tucker and Hannity crashes in the May ratings book. That will cost them millions. Do it!

A new conservative news network is one of the dreams I've had for decades.

However, the reality is that whoever puts one together has to be sure the network is readily available on most home TV sets, like ESPN, Forensic Science, Animal World, etc. are

The majority of the public isn't going to fiddle around with subscription channels, dishes, etc., nor am I. I like my computer, phone and TV package just fine...and don't want to cancel it or pay extra subscription costs.

Rupert Murdoch and his “useless, liberal sons are destroying the politically, Conservative, Cable TV powerhouse they built!!!

Fox News Channel will die just as the Democrat Party has died...with self-inflicted wounds!!!

I could care less because the current talent at FNC & FBN will hook-up immediately with the “NEW” all Conservative giant that will emerge from the Fox downfall!!! Look for Hannity, Dobbs, Varney, & many more to jump ship SASPO!!!

Murdoch...getting dumb in his old age....the sons were raised to be dumb!!! They cannot help themselves!!!

Don’t watch much Fox News anymore but things seem to be falling apart there.

I watch Fox & Friends and then Fox is off my TV. I, too, get most of my news from FR and local stations. One would think, ‘brilliant’ people in charge of FNC would realize that Fox was top cable station because it was the only alternative to liberal stations, i.e. CNN, MSNBC, etc. Well, Fox can now join the crowd in the basement!

Are you kidding? The Rupert moves have created the most golden opportunity in Cable TV broadcasting in the entire history of TV news. The “Ruperts” are only outpaced in dumbness & failure by one person......Barack Hussein Obama!!!

Man, FOX is just disintegrating before our eyes.

With Leftie James Murdoch in charge, they deserve it. Now just wait. Hannity and a bunch of others like Tomi Lahren will get with the Koch Brothers and launch a TRUE conservative network and it will take over the world. 85 MILLION viewers (minimum) the moment it hits the airwaves. Just in time for the 2018 election cycle.

Yes. I have zero attachment to Fox News. I just love Sean Hannity. And some of the honest true guests / talkers.

OAN One America News. Been watching it for awhile now on Verizon FIOS. Very good, very conservative.

‘....That will cost them millions. Do it!..’

Exactly why I stopped watching. Only way for libs to ‘get the message’ is to affect their ‘pocketbooks’. Hope many others stop watching FNC so ratings and finances drop.

It's a good start, they just need some "production" improvements.

I hate to say the obvious.

This is yet another liberal win.

We are being trampled on.

Until we learn to yell and scream and threaten our congressional leaders, they will continue to allow the democrats to destroy us.

It will be mid-terms before long. We will lose if this continues.

My guess is anyone leaving or who recently left has a non compete clause. As such they are bared from going to a competitor for the stipulated time in their contracts assuming they have time running on them.
