Well it's owned by the Rupert Murdoch but run by his boys who grew up ashamed that the left's "elite" would never accept them into any of their celebrity fraternities, despite their wealth.

In Australia, to the A-List titans, the Murdoch name after the the 60's and 70's always carried about the same cache as does the Trump name now, and the Murdoch boys always resented that; all that wealth but no respect.

Hence they have spent the last half-decade deliberately dismantling the flagship "Fox" name, in penance, and as self-flagellation, happily throwing away a legacy created by much greater men than they could ever hope to be, a small price to pay in their eyes if this sacrifical lamb gains them the much-desired entrance into the upper-echelon of the celebrity Left.
