[h=1]FBI changes story, finally admits it has thousands of pages of documents about Seth Rich[/h]
And why is Fox News working so hard to kill this story? I wish I could say more about Fox’s behind-the-scenes treachery — and someday hopefully I will — but rest assured that Malia Zimmerman’s May 17, 2017 story about Mr. Rich was fully vetted by senior Fox management. I repeatedly encouraged Fox’s attorneys to postpone settlement discussions with Seth Rich’s parents until I obtained the FBI records (my client, Ed Butowsky, was a co-defendant with Fox), but Fox was hellbent on settling the case in October / November. That’s around the time Rupert Murdoch publicly joined forces with Joe Biden. Fox had a very strong defense, yet it rolled over and played dead, settling the lawsuit and then firing Ms. Zimmerman. Sooner or later, the full story will come out, and it will be very ugly for Fox News and the Murdoch family.

And the downward spiral continues.

Former Fox News host Eric Bolling said people at Fox News are nervous.

Fox News ratings have dropped by 40%, and they don’t know how to turn it around.

In order to grasp the magnitude of Fox News’ betrayal of its conservative base, I decided to look back at their ratings in August of 2020 and compare the results with its current viewership as of November 23, 2020. The numbers are devastating and telling. Fox has lost about 50% of its audience. You Trump loyalists are making them pay where it hurts–the pocketbook.

Let me break it down by show:

Neil Cavuto drew 2.192 million viewers in August. By November he was attracting only 1.3 million.

The Five also suffered a big loss, going from 3.772 million in August to 2.883 million in November–minus 889,000 viewers.

Bret Baier suffered a significant decline of 1,139,000 –3.256 million in August to 2.117 million in November.

Martha MacCallum fared worse—she shed 50% of her audience, collapsing from 3.201 million to 1.613 million.

Tucker Carlson also has taken a big hit–dropping from 5.719 million in August to 3.444 million in November. That is a drop of 2.275

Sean Hannity’s shining star is flaming out. His viewership plummeted from 6.838 million to 2.839 million. That means almost 4 million people fled his show.

And Laura Ingraham bled out–she dropped from 4.82 million to 2.114. She lost 2.706 viewers.

I like Tucker, Sean, and Laura but Fox gets what they deserve.

Might there be other possible reasons, just asking.
Might it be, all talk & no prosecutions, evidence and no convictions. For my part, I watch Tucker Carlson steady, I also watch the Five, but sometimes Juan Williams is hard to take, so is Geraldo, but they have to have opposing viewpoints even if I don't agree with them. I mainly watch it for Dana Perino, Jesse Waters and Greg Gutfield. Sean Hanity seems like the same old same old every night
The rest are on too late for me to watch.
I only watch Fox News, Fox Business and sometimes One America News Network.

If you just reread this thread you will see the line from where Rupert and Ailes turned it over to the sons.

Yes, I was already aware of that but I know nothing about them. I do know that's why Greta Vansustrin left her show.

Well it's just like levened bread, evil keeps creeping in and effecting the whole loaf, government included.

From here, we have to address the fact that Murdock Jr. shares a bed with a hard-core leftist.

No doubt FNC has seen a nevertrump trend.

I still look to Harris Faulkner and Shannon Bream as my favorite non biased journalists. There are others, but these are solid.

The good news about all of this is the eyes being opened to OAN and Newsmax. Competition is a good thing.

Cavuto and Bair are dead to me, full of nevertrump snark.

I tune into Tucker, Gutfeld and Outnumbered every time. Occasionally some others.

This is misdefined. Fox was always about the republican neoconservative party and Trump is the antithesis of that, they didn't trend any different than they were, we just see them through a different prism...

Fox has betrayed its base and is now paying the price.I now only watch Tucker,Hannity,and Laura Ingraham. I will not watch Cris Wallace as he has turned a into a socialist conservative.

 

[bwframe]

I still watch Harris, Shannon and Tucker.

I have to be careful when I tune in. If I have to hear Bret Baier lecture another republican on "admitting that Trump has lost," I'm afraid I'm gonna blow a vein...

 

[Ingomike]

Just turn them off and forget them. Find something else to do. Don't watch...

 

[IndyBeerman]

As of today, my viewing of Fox News will be limited to Tucker, Hannity, Laura Ingraham and Greg Gutfield with a smattering thrown in here and there.

I discovered Spectrum is carrying NewsMax.

I tuned in and who did I see, Heather Childers smiling face, and a little later I seen a promo spot for Trish Reagan.

Liked what I saw.

Hearing things counter to your belief is uncomfortable, no? Embrace the discomfort. There's a reality beyond your perception.

 

[jamil]

Sure. Limit your viewing only to that which does not stray beyond what you already believe.

Because bubbles are comfy.

Excuse me, what's wrong with watching a newscast that's factually correct and accurate?

If a news outlet wants to be taken seriously it should report the news correctly. Not by saying it's "A mostly peaceful protest" while the city is burning down behind them in the video,
along with the population looting stores, chucking bricks and frozen water bottles all while assualting police officers, breaking into their vehicles and burning them also.

Parading people before the camera who are biased and not impartial is a agenda. I've lost all hope in most of the media, especially the paper rag they call "The Indianapolis Star"

 

[jamil]

Factually correct and accurate? Why, because they tell you what you want to hear?

How much time do you spend deciding that the ones you don’t like are wrong? How much time do you spend deciding the ones you like are right? More than the time it takes to think it?

I get knowing when they’re wrong about stuff. Most mainstream sources do present the news with an agenda. When you see rioters livestreaming from their own perspective, which is obviously not peaceful, and then the media presents it as no big deal, you know they’re lying. Okay, so what about where you get your news from? Newsmax, oann, Epoch Times, Gatway Pundit, whatever. How do you know they’re not agenda driven and just feeding you bull**** for the same reason the others do?
