Report: James Murdoch obsessed with getting rid of everyone associated with the old Fox

As Hannity Goes 'Underground' to Decide If He Will Return to Fox News, more is coming out about the transition of Fox News at the hands of James, son of Rupert.
Sources inside Fox News alleged there may be an active campaign to force him out of the network — led by none other than James Murdoch.
The source described Murdoch as being “disgusted” with many of the political views espoused by Hannity and other conservative Fox News hosts. Multiple other sources at Fox News agreed with the representation.
James regarded many of the people at Fox News as thuggish Neanderthals and said he was embarrassed to be in the same company with them.
IJR's source echoed the Hollywood Reporter's sources, claiming that James Murdoch “is literally obsessed with getting rid of everyone associated with the old Fox and turning Fox into a respectable news network like CNN.”
In pursuit of that ultimate goal, Murdoch is looking for a way to replace the recently departed Bill Shine with CBS News President David Rhodes, the source claimed.

Well, Fox had a decent run.
Still have Patriot Radio on Sirius XM for now at least.

Good point, calling CNN respectable does reek of fiction.

So has he decided yet whom he will get to leak debate questions to the DNC's preferred candidate?

I thought James said he wanted a respectable news organization?

Glenn beck said this weeks ago after bill oreilly was fired. He said after they destroy Fox News they will go after conservative talk radio.

Some company will win when Fox leaves the center/right and goes left.
I think that I just came up with a new bump page for that company.

Good. Fox News has done way too much harm to American political discourse. Just look at this board full of hyperpartisan brainwashed loonies.

I've already quit watching them. It's quite obvious that they have gone liberal/ anti Trump. I have no use for any views such as that.
I hope Hannity finds himself a new place wher he can do what he does best.

If you don't think that CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, et al. have also contributed to the hyperpartisan atmosphere, then you're a bigger brainwashed hack than I originally thought.
