Fox News Purge Begins
American Greatness ^ | 1/20/2021 | Julie Kelly

As ratings tank amid hostile coverage of former President Donald Trump, Fox News is purging its newsroom in an attempt to salvage the network’s fading brand. Political editor Chris Stirewalt, a NeverTrumper, and several digital editors were fired Tuesday; on Election Night, Stirewalt defended the network’s decision to call Arizona for Joe Biden, a move that infuriated the president and Fox News viewers. (The outcome of Arizona’s election wasn’t finalized until late November.)

“Hah, now they are firing never trumpers for towing the heirarcies orders? Thats rich!”

The people at the top are insulated from accountability. It is always the little people who are terminated in a purge.

What the advertisers and Fox News executives appear to not understand is that conservatives do not do a lot of experimenting like liberals and progressives.

If the item is perceived, there is little or no shopping around; however, once there is a massive disappointment, conservatives will find another item that matches their expectations.

To that end, it will not matter what kind of marketing campaign is presented, conservatives will, in large part, ignore it.

Stirewalt was a grinning idiot no more a journalist than Biden is a brain sergeon.

I hope they like their new CNN-Lite network. Wish Trump would buy his own network to counter them on the cables—But they powers that be will never let that happen. Til then—Fu*k You Fox, may your death be painful and long. The Murdock Bothers may well get sick of the money loss and dump the station.
