I remember folks claimed it was a huge change when TC replaced O'Reilly.  It wasn't, in my view, at all.  The staff remained, the process remained.  They'll find someone else and life will go on.  Viewers will flock back because the CORE tactic is to feed people what they want to hear.

That won't change.


This is all true.  At least historically it has been for all of the MSM networks.   

Even though  I don’t pay much attention to Fox ( or any of the other MSM), I am grateful they exist if for no other reason than to counter balance the other 5, which are all left leaning at varying degrees.  Too much groupthink- which is what TC was against and why whatever he talked about was pleasing to his audience.

FOXA dropped about 3% yesterday and is stable today.  That seems reasonable to me.

A thing I like about the business news outlets is they usually are close to down the middle in coverage and avoid headlines like "Star A dazzles in string bikini".

CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC and MSNBC are nowhere near the middle.  The idea that they are is actually humorous.

It's geared toward business. I imagine it will be OK.

I've also watched Fox Business. Much different than watching Fox News.

This.


Feels like the company’s management is, to a degree, not comfortable with the audience it helped build. Will be interesting to see their next step.

I wouldn't call any of those business news.

CNBC and Fox Business are really the only two I watch

Absolutely, and I think it will eventually happen. It's overdue.

Did anyone here claim they were?

The opinion obviously relates to one's own leanings.  I know a person on FB who claims MSNBC is right wing, and a posted on A51 (now gone for some reason) claimed Fox News was left wing.

The "middle" is defined by the individual.

When I'm in our gym I usually turn on CNBC if I'm alone.  I just want to check what the market is doing and see if they have a story of any interest.
