FOX has become unwatchable and in my house it is now unwatched. I tune into CNN when I want news. They're much less overtly biased than they used to be and they're FAR more reliable as a news reporting agency thanthe clowns at FNS.

For the many Freepers who have been posting lately that FOX was becoming harder for conservatives to watch, now we know there's a reason for that. It's deliberate and they think they can do without us. We'll see.

Soros said he would get Murdoch, if he didn’t pull Glenn Beck off the air. And he did.

You’ll note the changes began just as the NewsCorp UK charges came out. Dissent from the approved Socialist Narrative will not be tolerated.

Soros Mission accomplished.

I watch Fox a LOT. Probably too much. Maybe I’ll try CNN for a little bit this week.

>>> I tune into CNN when I want news.

CNN does not do news. They do Demonrat spin. If you want real news, turn off your damn TV, and read a variety of NON-US newspapers on the web.

This is the same strategy the GOP uses.

1) Lock down the conservatives.
2) Since conservatives have no place else to go, shift left and pick up moderates.

Of course, the problem with this logic is the “conservatives have no place else to go.” Conservatives will find someplace else to go, even if they have to build it themselves.

FOX is a bona fide member of the msm.

I do not watch, listen to, or read anything at all from the msm.

It's that simple.

FNC had the highest ratings by far of any news-oriented channel and some of the highest ratings in all of cable...

and that is bad? It needs correcting?

FOX has become unwatchabl

I agree completely. Seems as though all they do is push their personal book sales and giggle constantly about the damn dumbest things.

Their support for Rove and Romney made me finally change the channel. Not being able to find anything watchable, I turn on my computer and go to Free Republic.

Gave up on Hannity years ago, especially with his refusal to help the birthers with their attempts to get that foreigner and illegal alien out of our White House. Add to that his giggling love affair with Calvin Broadus, Jr (AKA: Snoop Dog) where he thought it was just so cute that this punk, drug dealing, pimp thought that Hannity was cooler than he was. (Giggle, Giggle)

They really jumped the shark when they put a obama kool aid drinker on bulls and bears and their finance shows.

The truth is UNFAIR. It is not equal time.

I have not watched Fox News for quite some time. I don't even DVR RedEye anymore. I get most of my news here.

I guess Fox got tired of being called Faux News by the libs...

I make my wife change the channel when I am in the room - Fox has become the establishment republican propaganda channel and is unwatchable for me.

We need a new news channel. Proposed hosts: Judge Napolitano, Walter Williams, Mark Steyn. And get my favorite Fox News reporter: William LaJeunnesse, who seems to have disappeared.

It is sad but not surprising. As long as they stay right of CNN, FOX can pick up new audience as it moves left because conservatives have nowhere to go. Unfortunately, it is not easy to start a new news network, but that’s what’s needed: a news network that would come in at the right of FOX. There is nothing more dangerous to FOX than that eventuality.

I watch Fox a lot less than I used to and it looks like it is going to become even less. If Fox doesn't respond to conservative market pressures, it is time to beef up the alternatives, probably on-line. The fracturing and factioning of the audiences continues. The division and atomizing of Americans is speeding up and this ultimately aids the left in their weakening of a unified America.

It’s not the tea party that has changed and is waning, it’s FOXNEWS that has changed their reporting on the tea party and soon will be waning.

Shocking, a hit piece on Fox News in Politco. Funny I don’t remember seeing any article by them about the tanking ratings of the other news channel. Now that’s the real story.

Fox News rankles Politico, CNN, MSNBC and the rest of the MSM.
