Former House Speaker Paul Ryan, who currently sits on the board of Fox Corp., is reportedly urging Fox News to decisively break with President Donald Trump, according to a Thursday Vanity Fair report documenting the networks management bedlam.
Vanity Fairs Gabe Sherman, citing four sources, reported that Fox Corp. CEO Lachlan Murdoch, who has long tried to move Fox News to the center, is already thinking about how to position the network for a post-Trump future.
Ryan, the longtime Trump antagonist, has reportedly been suggesting to Murdoch that Fox should decisively break with the president as Murdoch holds strategy conversations with Fox executives and anchors about how Fox News should prepare for life after Trump.
Vanity Fair cited an executive whos spoken with Ryan who simply said: Paul is embarrassed about Trump and now he has the power to do something about it.

Im sure some big money investors could be found the rapidly ramp up the Company. Ask Glenn Beck how was it is to get cable companies to carry your show and I have 400 or so channels on my cable service and watch about a dozen of them occasionally. Surely there is at least one of those channels that are underperforming.

Sure. That would play well with the public. They do them all the time. Unanimous Consent, or unrecorded voice votes happen all the time.

He's pure scum.

I fear that he is simply an intellectually inadequate poseur, who managed to mislead a lot of us with unsupportable intellectual pretensions. Remember how Joe Biden verbally slapped him around in the 2012 Vice Presidential debate? That was a revealing moment!
Ryan now comes across as simply another pretender.

Ryan was, and is, a stooge for the misnamed and border-hating US Chamber of Commerce.
That’s whose water he carried as Speaker, and you can bet that he’s still on their payroll.

Ryan now comes across as simply another pretender. Ryan has been in politics his entire adult life. At age 49 his skill set is influence peddling and deal making. I doubt he knows anything about running a media conglomerate. Fox needs his contact list..

Lachlan is still mad about Roger Ailes basically kicking his butt out of the building, AND Rupert Murdoch let him. Ryan is a POS as we all know. None of this is any surprise.

Yes, but be at peace; Hell awaits, and it’s appetite is never sated.

I suspect his name is on the list of members of congress whom the government had to pay out millions for sexual harassment issues. I think he lied to Trump on immigration and bringing it to the floor and Trump finally said enough and the Little Sh*t split and this is his way of trying for some payback.
If FNC did this they would go into a death spiral rather quickly and never recover. Hannity, Ingraham and Carlson would be gone and so would their ratings.

Paul Ryan should be investigated for Cheese Pizza and/or Sore-Ass dollars. Yes, I know he married into a big Dem Donor family.
In a just world, he would be ....
Some practices in the past ought to be renewed...

How long can Fox news be considered "fair and balanced" with the idiotic Murdoch children (and one of the wives) running it, not to mention failed congressman Paul Ryan?
Will Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson, and Laura Ingraham et.al bailout and participate in the formation of a new conservative news network?

Romney and Ryan probably both cut a deal with Obama before election day...

Republicans support Trump 93%-7%. Ryano is a 7%er.
