Since the first GOP presidential debate last August, Fox News Channel seems to have lost its perception mojo with its core right-leaning audience. By mid February, FNC’s perception by Republican adults 18 and over had reached its lowest point in more than three years, and has declined by approximately 50% since January of this year.

CNN seems to be going after the viewers Fox is discarding.
Fox News should re-brand itself the Anti-Trump channel.
The Rise of OAN.
The Marco Rubio channel would be even more accurate.
They have dropped 30%, I wonder why?/s
Kelly will be heading to CNN by election day
Can only speak for myself, an average conservative person.
I was a big Fox News watcher (work at home so have it on for background noise and occasionally pay attention) who has been disgusted at most of the Trump coverage since that first debate. I like Greta and O’Reilly (kinda) and other than them, I switch the channel. I used to like Megyn Kelly, thought she was smart and quick - now I switch her off. After the Republican debate she hosted I was disgusted with her. Same with Brett Baier (who I used to like) and ditto for Chris Wallace.
I really like FBN, love Lou Dobbs, Varney, Maria Bartoromo and several others.
Say what you want about Fox - how many tune in to the news to listen to the latest Hollywood doings, the latest sports, the latest recipes? That, followed by inane jabber between hosts about some arcane subject they cooked up on the spot, followed by some blowhard that talks over a nominally interesting guest or takes the majority of a segment to ask a guest a question only to cut the guest short due to time.
Fox was good 15 years ago - now its just another channel on the TV.
CNN at least covers foreign news reasonably well, while that more of an afterthought on Fox.
Ive been watching more of CNN since Kelly stuck a pin in the party doll. They are what they are but I think they do a better job reporting on overseas stories and lately have been more fair to Trump than Fox.
I stopped watching the night before the Megyn moderated debate. She looked into the camare and grinned that she had some surprises for Mr Trump.
I also am fed up with the number of commercials. It seems that no matter when you watched there was a commercial on.
Fox is also going down for their mistreatment of Ted Cruz. They alternate between bad mouthing him and ignoring him, all the while promoting their golden child, Marco Rubio. Screw Fox News, I stopped watching them months ago.
Maybe not. She’s a BIG part of why Fox is tanking.
Since FNC litters its shows with zillions of Lunatic Leftists and GOPe hacks these days, MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” has become more tolerable and is actually more “balanced” and informative than most FNC shows. Certainly better than “Fox & Friends,” Shep Smith, and Megyn Kelly.
And for hard news reporting CNN is still better than FNC in most instances with OAN being the best “straight new” channel.
And doing a pretty good job of it, as I am watching CNN more and more.
Fox News has always been a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Cheap Labor Express.
They have been trying to manipulate us into giving up our country without a fight.
Always pushing the amnesty agenda and amnesty candidates.
If I were Trump, I’d tweet....Kelly....If you ever need a job, we will be needing maids for the DC Hotel. Call me!
