There is some talk of some wealthy conservatives creating a new news channel, bringing on board the victims of FNCs suicide efforts.
They would probably start by buying in to a cable channel with limited coverage, so they could demonstrate their appeal, as well as having Internet broadcasts. This would “sell” them to the big cable companies, so they would continue to expand until they were broadcasting nationally.
It would be essential to build conservative support, which first means getting the message out that they exist, then asking conservatives to call their cable company and ask that they should be added to the lineup.
It would also be a huge help to have an interview pipeline direct from the White House and conservatives in congress, with very friendly, exclusive interviews. They could also have a whole bunch of once a week half hour shows from conservative organizations: the NRA, Right to Life, CATO, Heritage Foundation, The American Conservative Union, American Family Association, etc. Ask them to produce interesting original content.
They could also bring in a large number of Internet conservatives to provide “freelance” content, as well as having an emphasis on hiring combat veterans as staff.
That's a good theory, which assumes that cable TV survives as a mainstream medium. Many counted on FOX News as the reasonable alternative to the MSM. But that goes back, what, 20 years ago? Technology has moved on, and the traditional cable pricing model may have reached its term limit. Prediction - within 10 years, the large cable systems will do menu pricing, or be just like Blockbuster is today.
