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.)

I’ve just cancelled my cable TV, so I don’t really care - but does this mean they will go mainstream Statist/ Left like everyone else (which seems to be the thinking of Murdoch’s son) or will they try to reform themselves?

Recall the saying: “Fool me once fool on you. Fool me twice and I’m the idiot?” O.K., I reworded it a bit but held my tongue.

I would consider returning if:

A Trump was put on the Board and Ryan was removed.
Donna Brazile, Geraldo, Huff were fired.
Wallace was fired.

Until then, they’re dead to me.

But insiders told The Daily Beast that the decision was likely politically motivated as the network, owned by the media tycoon Rupert Murdoch, moves from news coverage toward more right-wing opinion segments.

Now THAT is braking news. And also sounds like fake news.
