Murdoch, Inc. will now be more globalist than ever, and definitely no friend of America. FoxNews had a good run but it’s been taken over by the libturds now.

Kind of reminds me of the nepotism we have in the White House that seems to be influencing Trump towards the softer more globalist side. That is my perception even though I don’t know for certain. I think Trump will resist the politics of NYC. Nothing good comes of nepotism.

This while you tube is aggressively demonitizing original conservative content creators. They get about $7.50 per thousand views for those adds that appear at the beginning of videos.

Speaking from amateur experience, editing a gen minute clip can take 20 to 30 hours.

50,000 veiws nets you $375. And now You Tube is denying that.

People here won’t even given them the click and then go ahead and comment oblivious to the actual context of the video -which is truly bizarre.

Chalk it up to “...while you weren’t watching.”

Fox Business is probably the best part of the corporation, even though I kind of miss Freedom Watch. I always thought Red Eye would have been a better fit over there-maybe in a better time slot.

Pretty sure you’re wrong about that. I remember hearing about who owns it and it was a businessman in the USA who just wanted a clean non biased but patriotic news source who started and owns it. I don’t remember the name though.

I really was expecting Breitbart to start a news network after the election, and Greta left. O’Reilly’s not a true conservative, but he was a far cry from the lies and partisanship of the other networks. I wonder if any of the other’s contracts are close to being up, yet? Of course, if they were devious, the Murdochs would have negotiated the other conservatives BEFORE getting rid of O’Reilly, but then, maybe they want them out, too. Either way, I think they’re committing professional suicide by getting rid of their most successful personality. They’re trying to silence the only fair and balanced news network, and I doubt they’ll stop at O’Reilly. Now, if they can just get the FCC to get rid of conservative internet and radio, they will have accomplished their coup. They are monstrous.
The Bible talks about the end times, when right will be seen as wrong, and vice versa. We already have that in our social mores. I don’t doubt that eventually, we will have no truth, but the Bible. Those will be days when we will know what we must believe and cling to, no matter what the cost. Pray without ceasing.

I agree but it’s Steyn

I would never toy with a 1.5 billion positive cash flow stream myself

What idiot arrogant Nothing boys...ruled over by posh fembot wives

The Cuckdochs......

1.5 billion positive cash flow translates to FNC alone being around 20 billion in a quick sale at a cap rate of 7.75

That’s a record for a news media property

And to go and eff with it to be cool and get libtard wyfe approval

Nutz

Cucks on the Barbie

Smith, Williams, Rivera will be the headliners. Fox become #1 because of their views and reporting. James and his idiot brother Lachlan will take the #1rating to last place. Just another CNN. If these two brainless sons think they will keep the views they have they will be in for a surprise. Fox will be fighting with CNN for what little viewers they have. The rest of us will move on and forget Fox. People who jobs are at risk are Hannity, Dobbs, Varney, Pirro to start with. If you are not pro Hillary and anti Trump you will be removed. Just think 24/7 of people like Smith. After

I rarely watch cable news anymore. I almost can’t stand to watch the local news. They have really tightened down on their affiliates.
