What happens when a controlled op outfit stops providing the "opposition" part of the equation? What they're peddling is becoming what you can get anywhere else only the other places are drawing more eyes now. They went for the kill shot and blew their cover.
Granted Fox showed their hand too early. This should have been done more slowly over time. Some heads may even roll for that decision but it's desirable to have multiple outlets that support the uni-party. There's always room for one more. It gives it the appearance of fairness or balance. They are free to stir the pot on social issues that inflame the population and keep them fighting one another rather than focusing on the thieves that hold the real power.
While Fox's base is leaving in droves they are gaining new followers slowly. My mother, for example, who is a flaming lib now watches Neil Cavuto. She's convinced that he is at least one voice on Fox that is not biased. Hahaha...
So, it will go. Fox wants to compete to take over the "middle" space that CNN used to occupy 20 years ago. Their political stance moves left but the CNN has moved so far left that they are now nearly at the edge of the scatter plot. Fox wants to be the network that you see when you go to the airport. That's where their business model is heading anyway. More Establishment types. More Neil Cavuto's! More Paul Ryan's. More Mitt Romney's.
OAN and Newsmax are well-positioned to handle us Trump supporters. They are showing tremendous growth.
