Lachlan Murdoch, CEO of Fox Corp., said Fox News would welcome the arrival of a rival news and opinion brand led by Donald Trump if he is no longer president.

“We love competition,” Murdoch said in response to a direct question from an analyst about Trump’s future during the company’s quarterly earnings call.

He also knows how the game is played with the big cable companies which keeps rivals like OANN from becoming a serious threat. Trump could be different.

Trump would be walking on to fields that are even more unfair. That he’d thump rival networks I can believe. But with the FCC as referees and tipping the scales for their favorite network shills... I need convincing.

My guess, with Rush dying of cancer, Trump would take over the Flagship

If he can navigate those waters, I’d love to see a MAGA/TNN network.

Do they also love the loss of prestige and regard from former viewers. Laclan not only disrespects the president, he disrespects us.

Christians, lets add FoxNews to our prayer list -- and not for blessing!

Yeah, let’s hear you say that to your board after Lindell moves his beddy-bye product ads over to Newsmax - along with all the other major adverts.

Competition?

They just alienated their entire base. People will cancel direct dish and whatever other servers they can. They’ve all been not only looking for a way to get out of paying 100 per month many of whom have tv just for fox.

Fox is over. As soon as I saw Martha Baier smiling under s Biden wins marquis I turned to newsmax then got very busy cancelling upcoming DVR series.

Competition?!

Once contractual obligations allow, Tucker and Sean should dump Fox-Pravda.

Hey Fox, there will not be any competition from Trump anytime soon. He will be busy over the next four years because he will be running the country as POTUS!

Hard to imagine the new Fox ever successfully competing against firmly embedded leftist propaganda organizations like CNN and MSNBC. What are they going to be? Fascist light?

The Fox News ratings collapse has already started. Look at their ratings disaster from Thursday:

It amazing how offspring of very successful people can utterly destroy everything their parents worked for.

Keep you Internet.

Use the Roku devices (less than $50 at Best Buy) to get channels.
I pay a little bit a month for OANN.
You can get NewsMax too.
And evidently there are numerous other news channels for conservatives.
Also plenty of channels that have entertainment on them.
