#1 This is the Left's weapon after the election. No-platform dissidents by attacking their advertisers. It's unfortunately working well and silencing voice after voice.

#2 ...Also keep in mind that the Murdoch boys (James, who now writes the checks and Lachlan, who doesn't really seem to care all that much as long as the goodies keep coming) both consider themselves 'responsible corporate guardians', i.e.; SJWs with a LOT of money.

Sir Rupert was the one who, with Roger Ailes, built Fox into a conservative news powerhouse. But Roger's gone and Sir Rupert is 86 and retired. The boys have no interest at all in keeping Fox even vaguely right-ish, and it's starting to look like that after O'Reilly got his, the word went out that Hannity should probably dust off his resume. He was the last 'name' they had left, and he won't be there long. Within a year or so, look for Fox to become a televised version of the Guardian.

#4 Hannity is a perpetual whiner. He's an awful model for conservatives to follow, "Ooooh, look what those mean, dishonest liberals are up to now! Oooooh, my tummy hurts!" He's Glenn Beck with a better developed level of drool control.

Faux News is gone. Forget about it.

#5 Faux News is gone. Forget about it.

Most of us are no strangers to the tools used to destroy Fox. More commonly employed in the workplace, there really is no defense. Once they surface and you are targeted, you might as well begin looking elsewhere for employment.

#6 I really don't care where Whinnity goes. I meant consumers of news should forget about Murdoch family owned products.

Faux News wants some of the MSNBC anti-Trump ratings goodness. Watch them go get it.

Wall Street Journal is Buzzfeed without cat videos and bikini girl pictures. Is there a picture of Tory Burch on the cover today? I have no idea. I cancelled my subscription last year after a 30+ year run.

#7 CNN = Supermarket weekly of cable news.

#8 No intention to defame supermarket weeklies with that comparison. True or false the weeklies never seem to be actively suppressing 'news'.

#9 One doesn't have to be a fan of O'Reilly or Hannity to be concerned that there could be ZERO channels that even pretend to lean towards the conservative side of the isle. I'm in no hurry for that to come about.

#10 The story that generated this brouhaha and pushback by the left is the Seth Rich murder coverage. There is no smoking gun. No one has been caught. It could just be a robbery. However, there is plenty of motive on the part of those connected to the DNC. There is circumstantial evidence and there is plenty of weirdness about the entire case. I think there should be a push to investigate it further by the DOJ and either put this to bed or take it as far as it will go. Does anyone know any political figures who have the large number of strange deaths and murders around them as the Clintons?

#11 I don't believe anything was 'lifted' from Mr. Rich by the perp(s) after he was shot, JohnQC.

His money, watch, phone, etc. were still on his person (according to his father), so robbery might not have been the motive.

#12 @#10: The coppers have/had Mr. Rich's "computer." This could be of "issue."

go to the post today about Donna Brazile and listen to the Sanders lawyer at approx. 21 minutes on the tape about election rigging. The death of the process server after serving the DNC adds another corpse in a chain of events that seem to dog the Clintons over the years as people are discouraged from careless talk about them and their behaviors......

#16 Perfect opportunity for someone to put together a FOX news replacement. Hopefully someone with less love for scrolling news on the bottom of the screen.

#17 How about we admit that the old media is dead?

#18 I agree it mostly is, but a replacement for Fox News doesn't have to be a cable network, or just a cable network. I'm assuming a new network would see the decline in the media and try to think outside the box.
