Out of curiosity, how much did the non-Fox gain and Fox lose?

Somewhere in the Bible it says that all the foundations will be shaken before the Lord returns.

She is starting to be less enamored with Newsmax lately. She thinks it’s starting to shadow the FOX model. Get the conservatives watching for ratings and then turn on them.

I've found that a combination of Newsmax, OAN and America's Voice (on Pluto TV) gives wayyyy better info and coverage than Fox ever did - and I don't want to choke anyone while I watch.

The industry should start waking up to the fact that people like us ARE the news industry. They're nothing without us.

Fox morphs into MSNBC while Twitter morphs into MySpace.

I’m sure their shareholders are overjoyed.

This is funny!

D1 issues his 2020 Baby Harp Seal award to FoxNews, for getting beaten like one due to it’s treachery and hatred for its own audience.

When you betray the people that put you in your position it’s fitting that you pay a stiff price. Hope they go broke. Newsmax it is.

No surprise here to anyone paying attention.

Fox News Channel has decided to go from the go-to place for conservatives for their "fair and balanced" reporting for years, to being down with the commie Left.

But it must be embarrassing to finish behind both the leaders in fake TV news, since MSNBC only averages 15 viewers per night and CNN is about to stop broadcasting non-stop in airports where they have a built-in audience.

This "woke" decision reminds me of when Coca Cola almost destroyed their almost century-old brand by going for the New Coke in the mid-80s.

When an athlete is great, he or she is called the Michael Jordan of his or her sport. When a new product launch is a disaster, it is called the "New Coke" of its industry.

Welcome to the loser's team, Fox News.

See, I just don’t think they really care out of those three who wins or loses since they basically all represent the same
Objective by the same overlords.

NewsMax, it is. At least one half this country wants representation. We should have it.

When they sell out to the dark side (the communist pukes), their ratings crash.

To all of those media outlets that sell out to the dark side:

The sooner you are dead and got and off the air/off the web, the better.

Eff every last one of you.

Two homos topping the list, that says a lot about the liberal audience.

Another factor to consider in the plummeting TV viewership ratings is the fact that countless folks are deserting ALL news channels because the news itself is so disappointing, so negative, so biased, so uncouth and SO depressing.

I've been talking to a lot of folks of different political persuasion, but mostly conservatives....and almost all of them are throwing up their hands and they're telling me they're watching Animal Planet or oldie-goldie movies, the History Channel or cooking shows, etc.......anything BUT all the news channels except for a few minutes a day for any breaking news.

I've been doing the same thing. I enjoy the forensic crime and home improvement shows plus the PBC series being run on Queen Victoria and her royal times and troubles....plus, reading and crossword puzzles are a welcome relief to listening to all-day-bad-news.

They shouldn’t turn their very backs on those of us who gave them the soaring ratings.

But they/you/we elected Trump and that is worth jumping off the cliff to atone for.
