Murdoch’s companies always follow a regression once established in the market. He did the same in Australia and the UK well before he had Ailes direct Foxnews down market.

I think you’re confusing “smut” with “news”

I obviously have no clue what news is these days.
If it is weird or perverted the world needs to know it!

I am so glad you posted this. I saw this today as well, and now I have added foxnews.com to the websites that I will not allow my children to view.

Sad.

Yeah, I’ve noticed the “Sexpert” column the past few weeks. It’s certainly something a bit too trashy to be featured on a “news” website.

5 Ways to Get Her in Bed.

There's something wrong with that?

Channeling and paraphrasing the kid from Animal House, "Thank you, Fox!"

Too many Huckabee evangelicals around Free Republic these days. We used to have fun.

So were those all in a row, or did you cherry-pick them? (Pardon the pun).

I agree. But I generally click on it just to verify how unfit it is ;-)

I checked the "5 Ways to Get Her in Bed" article.

(Not that I need any advice about that, but still...)

The Fox News expert suggests serving the lady a "Molotov cocktail".

Dirty Pun.... Do you work for FOX?

All were top stories and the "Five ways to get her in bed" was one of the Top Three.

Find the answer to that million-dollar question — How to get her into bed

Has that one aired yet? ;)

Google has a few sponsored links on the MyWay homepage that are just unbelieveable. ...one in particular -- "Looking for married women? Bored housewives who want to have fun? Click here."

I'm not easily taken aback, but that one did the trick.

It’s not just a change to smut. The first signs of change to a loss of real integrity and intelligent reporting occured with Greta’s “Wait until you hear what happened next.....” followed by a commercial. That started about a year ago and I believe was the beginning of the decline of Fox News.

Fox news uses a metrics based system that reads usage cookies on your computer and customizes content based on your browsing history in the same way Amazon puts books you would like on the home page when you visit.

Example, if you visit a lot of business related websites, it will give emphasis on business news with the themes of sites you visit.
