I thought it was started by Rupert Murdoch with Roger ailes helping to set it up. I looked at the Fox News page on Wikepdia and it says nothing about Barry Diller. I looked up Barry Dillers page on the same and it has only one sentence mentioning fox news and him and nothing saying he created it.
According to Wiki, Fox Broadcasting was co-created by Murdoch and Diller.
I hope when backbone-laden Trump is elected the first thing he does is apply appropriate anti-trust laws to the tiny handful of nabobs now controlling almost ALL this nation's media......or we will soon be experiencing Goebbels-type fascism and total control of the corrupted media, all Hollyweird output, plus the ripe-for-the-plucking internet.
I know, I know...it can't happen here!
Well, it's happening right now before our very eyes!
What fools we mortals be if we don't see it...or don't want to see it !

Diller was Fox before Murdoch bought it.
