FOX can afford to do this.

They’ve got the conservative street cred. So they can now raid MSNBC and CNN for more audience share.

This is VERY smart on Ailes’ part.

Best,

Chris

I disagree that Fox “can afford this” or that they’ll now nibble around the edges of the CNN and MSNBC audience by getting a tad less conservative. Isn’t that the same as being the media equivalent of a RINO?

Evan Bayh and Lanny Davis in the same week? We can catch crap like that everywhere else -and Fox inches closer to being everybody else.

I not sure how smart this is. FNC has been tracking left in the past 18 months and lots of conservatives (like me) have stopped watching.

You’re going to catch the dickens for your post, but I think you are right.

This is a good move for FNC...a capitalist business who wants to attract all of the TV viewers on the planet.

At least it’s not Alan Grayson. That’s where I would drew the line. lol
