Democrats aren’t the only ones glad Joe Biden is in the Oval Office. Lachlan Murdoch, CEO of the company that owns Fox News Channel, is as well.
Murdoch predicted Thursday that Fox News, the economic engine of his company, Fox Corporation, would lead cable news in the ratings once again after ceding ground in recent weeks to rivals CNN and MSNBC. “The main beneficiary of the Trump administration from a ratings points of view was MSNBC,” which served as a kind of “loyal opposition.,” Murdoch said while speaking to investors at a conference organized by Morgan Stanley. “That’s what our job is now with the Biden administration, and you’ll see our ratings really improve from here.”

There will be some conservatives who will go back wearing a 'kick-me' sign on their backs. The last time I watched Fox News was on Nov 4.
Lachlan and his wife and Fox management were ok with losing viewership after their election shenanigans, but felt that the viewership will come back. After all where else will they go - like Romney was saying when he ran for Preezy.
Now Fox has Tucker throwing out red meat everyday for conservatives to get them back. That is how much they think we are sheep.

Fox viewers are not going back, even to Tucker. And CNN and MSNBC ratings are falling now, too.

"Fox CEO Lachlan Murdoch Portrays Fox News as ‘Loyal Opposition’ to Biden"This is laughable if he thinks that is believable. They were so openly part of the fix, now they are thinking everyone will forget all that.
His wife even had a mission accomplished moment.

He can say loyal opposition, I say turncoats. I cannot imagine ever tuning in again. I was down to about 2 hours a day before the election; an hour in the a.m. to catch overnight news, Tucker in the evening. Now that’s 2 hours too many.

You and your GOPe buddies.

Fox is dead to me and millions of others. Same goes for the RINO traitors.

I think what he really means is “ VIRTUAL OPPOSITION “ in order to pander to a demographic group

So Fox will be the opposition to Biden on many things, but they will remain “loyal” to the foundation of the monarch, The Steal.
