The bigger shift was when Roger Ailes died. He was the driving force behind Fox being conservative. I read that Murdoch wanted to endorse Obama, but Ailes threatened to resign if he did, so Murdoch didn't. Once Ailes died, Murdoch was free to go full CNN, with his sons being a driving force.
Has anyone seen Ruport recently? Seems like he may be out of the picture entirely now. That would explain a lot.
