Ugh, I hope not Hannity. Some friends of ours want Jesse Waters to take the 8pm slot. I don’t know....

Tucker will take gobs of his viewers with him and Fox will be screwed. This may usher in a complete paradigm shift in opinion news away from network/cable news. Tucker may soon become the highest rated news and opinion show on the air and not be associated with a major network.

Maybe. I've been waiting for Newsmax (or some network) to *really* rival the Fox News powerhouse. So far it hasn't happened. I just don't see Tucker taking his millions of fans with him to some obscure podcast or online site like RAV, etc.

The Left is giddy, hoping we all settle for moving to The Fringe.

Unfortunately there are those here as giddy as the Left with the demise of FOX . They can celebrate with Joy Reid, Whoopi G, and all of the other woke/Leftist wack jobs that “think” like she does.

Yep. Leftists destroy everything they touch and they’re working on destroying this site by either taking it down completely or turning it into a leftist sewer like they’re doing with Fox.

They survived getting rid of Bill O'Reilly.

The one program on Fox that I make an effort to see is The Journal Editorial Report on Saturdays. The panel offers a lot of information and analysis you won't find elsewhere on TV.

Hannity’s on board with the corporate culture at faux and clashed with Tucker constantly. Hannity does what he’s told.

I watch Bill O’Reilly’s show, not every night but some..He has his points but he is a New Yorker which is never good but he seems to finally see the light on many things..Especially Biden..he has turned 180 degrees and calls a spade a spade..

Word is Carlson was fired over the J6 videos he released and some of his staff by Murdock himself.

BOR had a decent show, I enjoyed about half of it. Tucker improved upon that. Now they'll just give me another plain vanilla host, not interested.

Clowns like juan Williams and Geraldo are needed to keep their circus going and to keep us watching the shiny things while the criminals destroy our country

Advertising on cable news shows is an interesting dynamic. Viewership doesn’t mean as much as you might think.

TV ratings matter immensely for network television because advertisers are looking to sell products to viewers.

For cable news programs, the ratings alone don't matter because the big advertisers aren't selling directly to viewers. Nobody buys Pfizer products, for example, just because they advertise on Fox News.

Instead, major corporations advertise on cable news shows to pay the network to peddle the company's propaganda. So Fox News takes ad money from Pfizer, and in exchange, they get their hosts to promote COVID vaccines (or at least not to talk about the adverse effects). Boeing pays ad money to Fox, and in exchange, the company's paid b!tch Lindsey Graham has an open invitation to go on any show and promote endless military campaigns all over the globe. You get the idea.

Tucker Carlson didn’t have major national companies sponsoring his show because he wasn’t willing to toe the line and spout their bullsh!t on the air. Frankly, this made it much easier for Fox News to cut him loose.

It’s not the number of people that watch the show, it is that the people watching are of desirable age and income groups.

You are not going to sell a 72 year old man tampons and are not going to sell at 22 year old a reverse mortgage.

I understand about viewership not equating to advertising, if it did CNN would be bankrupt because no one watches them

Jesse is too self centered and in love with himself. Even his photo with his new baby and wife made me laugh. She is laying sideways in a hospital bed and her hair and make up looked like she had just been to the makeup studio as Jesse in his fancy azz clothes stood over her grinning.

He isn’t hateful or anything, he is just kind of in love with his image.

Jesses show was at 7 PM as he came on in his perfect clothes. Tucker at 8 PM with his usual striped shirt and yellow and blue crooked tie. heh
