I dont think that would happen but it doesnt matter if it did. FNC is in a slow death spiral. And I am not sure anyone cares anymore. The Murdoch children took control some time back (making your side blame "Rupert Mudock" (that what they call him) for this Smith firing amusing). I admit I thought what was happening there now was on Lachlan Murdoch. But i have been reading more and more it is actually his wife who is driving the changes there. She cares more about her social standing than ratings. These people apparently have enough cashflow that taking a loss on the news arm doesnt matter, as long as they get the news they want, delivered the way they want it. We have seen this all over the media for a couple decades now (NYT, WAPO, CNN and so on). Personally, I gave up on Fox News a long time ago. I do like Tucker Carlson but I only see him occasionally and its on Youtube or via some other link. Outside of election night, I cant remember the last time I used the remote to turn Fox News on, but it was years ago.
