Fake News. Murdoch has been good friends with Hillary for a long time. And Fox obviously promoted Trump. Murdoch won either way with Hillary or Trump.
Murdoch’s sons, and their US media roles, went along with Dad’s “anyone but Trump” theme.
Hey, if mudoch wants to beat CNN in a race to the bottom, so be it.
I stopped watching fux news and the clinton/communist news network a long time ago.
I also stopped watching the majority of their parent companies crap too.
The Cheap Labor Express must be kept running.
It is THE most important thing to the powers that be.
The importation of “new Americans” who will outvote real Americans to steal the country is what is at stake.
We need dates my friends. After the election it doesn’t matter. BEFORE Megan Kelly? Something tells me there’s nothing Fox could do. Trump would have won no matter what.
Their loss has just begun. Who among us now watches “Fair and Balanced” Fox news? Raise your hands if it was once the ONLY network worth watching.
Megyn Kelly, with her low ratings; her network now beats Fox in ratings at any given time.
A crack in the window - Murdock’s instructions to Ailes, ignored? Reason for the mysterious death of Ailes?
My only contribution was to the general political direction of the Murdoch family.
It was very evident after they bought Dow Jones and acquired the Wall Street Journal.
The front page and main page “reports” took a noticeable Leftward tilt, that had been descending ever since. The previous owners retained editorial control of the Opinion page at the WSJ, so the Murdochs established a couple of “columns” in the main section to editorialize the news themselves.
Their political tilt was not left to just the main section. The other sections have received their editorial bent on issues like “wage inequality”, “diversity”, climate change, and shilling for Elon Musk, Google and other arrogant technologists.
With Ailes in charge at Fox, it just took the Murdochs longer to expose their harsh Left hand there.
I still watch Tucker & Hannity regularly.
Nothing else.
I do.
I try to catch Martha, Tucker and sometimes Sean fairly often.
Several others on the net that I like.
FNC was making a Billion dollar profit a year and these lib morons are going to wreck it!
Great opening for a new start-up right wing network. imo
Confirmed: Heads of TV news organizations actively try to influence the outcome of elections.
Finally someone admitted it.
I am just waiting for a bunch of actual conservatives/libertarians to form a new network - and this means that people like Hannity and Carlson will need to leave and join this new network. Fox used to actually be fair and balanced...and now, like an aging woman well past her prime, it is relying on its past reputation and lots of make-up to play at being what it once was - but few are actually fooled, certainly not for long.
The Leftists want Fox? Take it...we’ll move on to something better, something without Juan Williams, Shep, Geraldo and the rest of the Leftist jerks hired by Fox to turn it. We viewers aren’t fooled. Time to hit back at the Murdoch family where it hurts the most - in its wallet.
Except for Hannity depending on his guest, occasionally Carlson and Fox and Friends, I refuse to leave FNC on the tv. They were heading left the last several years and with the Murdoch pajama boys they have veered hard left.
FNC is essentially PMSNBC with a red, white and blue screen graphics and some nice T&A.
We all knew something weird was going on with Fox News back during the election. This news is no surprise.
The US MSM has been pretty much completely taken over by the leftist socialist democrats.
All of the “news” is now mostly leftist socialist propaganda. The socialist-democrats own virtually all of the media outlets, including online, TV, film, radio, and print.
The only thing stopping them is the threat of them going too far, and citizens going open season on their “journalists” and attacking their physical infrastructure.
A backhoe digging along the railroad tracks can take out an entire region of communications.
Don’t piss off the people who built your data infrastructure.
We built it, we know where it’s at, and we can send all of your asses back to the 19th century faster than you can type a response.
The Murdoch boys...Dumb and Dumber
“Their political tilt was not left to just the main section. The other sections have received their editorial bent on issues like wage inequality, diversity, climate change, and shilling for Elon Musk, Google and other arrogant technologists.”
makes it that much easier to eschew a print subscription at the ridiculous price $468.00/year.
How did Murdock win with either Trump or Hillary.
I believe Fox was VERY anti-Trump during the primary—with Kelly and the outrageous 24/7 PROMOTION of first Rubio and then Cruz—
I couldn’t disagree more. They portrayed the image that Trump’s campaign wanted. They gave him so much attention and took out everyone else.
