Fox News Is Headed For Disaster
2022-05-12
[EmeraldDB3] Fox News has been on a collision course with its own audience since the stolen 2020 election — and you can almost feel the impact coming. The network has made so many dumb bets lately that it’s like watching a busload of trailer park residents get offloaded to play the nickel slots in Reno. All you can do is shake your head as you think: I know they’re all going bankrupt, and they’re already bankrupt. It’s been perfectly obvious for years now that Rupert Murdoch and his feckless sons turned against President Trump and actually helped Joe Biden — which is not just unforgivable. It’s unsustainable.

Why? Because it requires the silence of other prominent conservatives, and the short term memories of GOP voters, to allow Fox News to continue pretending that it’s a conservative news network. Guess what: GOP voters have not forgotten about Fox News calling Arizona early — and prominent conservatives are no longer interested in ignoring Fox’s treachery.

Case in point: Dinesh D’Souza dropped several bombshells on Twitter recently that illustrate that Fox News has nowhere left to hide.

#12  I don't watch the talking heads, or read from those also trying to tell me what I should think. Whatever the flavor.

#11  Too many times I've seen Karl Rove on Fox and I just can't stand it. I can still watch Tucker but none of the rest of it.

#10  The Murdock sons, who took over some years ago, are quite the opposite, politically, of their father. The movement to the left has not dramatic, but inexorable nonetheless.

#9  stopped watching TV so long ago I cant remember, its all garbage, pushing someone else's agenda. In the "age of communication" it the individuals responsibility to acquire what knowledge and information there is thats actually true. Rantburg is an excellent source.

#8  /\ #2, "dropped" or the results of a failed palace coup? They already had the scalps of Glen Becks and BOR and were going "all in" for mounting Tucker Carlson's head in their trophy case...

#4  Fox heading towards a disaster? The self-destructive disaster seems like it started at the time of the 2020 election when Fox called the election way early in Arizona. Fox seems to have a company goal of self-destruction. Fox = Never-Trumpers.

#3  I stopped watching FauxNews the moment they started treating NeverTrump guests as serious news. Haven't watched it in years.

The reason to go to a news aggregation site like Rantburg is that you get exposed to sources you won't see on any cable news channel and if there's a question about the legitimacy of a given item, it emerges in the comments quickly enough.

None of the cable news channels debunk their own reports in real time.

#2  Let's see: They've dropped Shepard Smith, Chris Wallace, Donna Brazile, ....

Addition by subtraction

#1  True, but the alternative are feckless, like OAN. I’ve been watching more Sky News from Australia.
