Fox News reportedly considering top executive firings over their post-election ratings collapse

I haven’t seen Stirewalt since presidential Election Day. I would have expected he would be the night of the GA senior runoff elections but I didn’t see him.

Looks like the kid destroyed the old man’s business. Fire all the commies and restart with real Conservatives and there is a very slim chance that they can recover. Very slim!

Perhaps Liz Cheney would make a great new CEO of Fox News?
