I don't know why anyone watches this garbage channel, or any legacy news for that matter. Fox is trash. Turn it off.


because of Emily Campagno and Kayleigh McEnaney.


I'm also a sentient being who can watch electronic media objectively without getting butthurt over whatever bias or slights I perceive. Some of you suffer media derangement syndrome like liberals suffer TDS.

“ Whether I don’t understand,if he leaves it to one son,how can the other kids take it to court ?”

What happened is he left it to all 4 of his children in an irrevocable trust.His oldest son Lachlan is conservative and 3 younger children are libtards.
Rupert Murdoch went to court to try and amend the trust to make only Lachlan in charge of Fox News.

He lost in court so the libtard children will be able to control Fox (3 against 1).
From what I’ve read irrevocable trusts are virtually impossible to break.
Seems like R Murdoch didn’t think it through very well when he established the trust.

Rupert is giving him a reality slap -- Its not Newsmax to trash a rival....

These show hosts and commentators don't claim to be "news" show's and they will tell you that. That would also include host's like Laura and Jessie. They would tell you that their formats are opinion and entertainment. That legitimizes their conservative bent. As long as they are up front about it the viewer will know this and not think they are passing it off as hard news. They do highlight the conservative side of things because they are conservative and they know that's what the viewer wants. It is a business. The viewer should be able to separate the wheat from the chaff.

That said, why can't we just have non-biased news organizations who report the facts and let Americans draw their own conclusions without being fed talking points?


Do you watch your local news?

Even the local affiliates in the south are liberal propaganda machines.

The colleges indoctrinate these people in their so called journalism schools.

OAN or Newsmax should have more presence over Fox, which is now reporting day old news and hosting the same group of politicians seeking a forum for their opinions.

If he wanted to leave it to me I would make sure it stayed conservative

Sounds like a great timing opportunity for Devin to roll out TMTG News




Already RSBN, OAN, Newsmax, RAV are all on Truth+

From a strictly business and dollars standpoint, this makes no sense whatsoever.

You have the highest, by far, rated news network in existence today.

So your plan to succeed is to change that?

Makes perfect sense.

The audience has already been taken by podcasts. You have the Dan Bongino show, Tucker Carlson, Glenn Beck's blaze TV, Steve Bannon's podcast, etc etc.

I haven't watched Fox News once since they let go of Tucker.

The networks are history . Podcasts like Tucker and Meagan have taken the wheel . I still occasionally listen to Maria and Larry but that’s it

Fox is already dying a demographic death as is all of cable tv. They only people still watching Fox and cable tv are boomers.

But it’s his. A court telling who you can give something to? The courts should stay out unless there’s nothing on paper or a trust with instructions. You can’t change a trust even while living?

Thanks…. I’ve seen where kids or family members go to court to fight over things and never understood why.

Can Oann, newsmax and breitbart just merge so they can be the old Fox News again?


Al star lineups again but I want to keep Dana perino ( don’t care about her neocon views on mute) at five.

All the on air talent from Fox will just move to podcasts like everybody else is doing. The legacy media news is already dead and they don’t even know it.
