I don't think the Murdochs should go full force left-wing, that's unfair. They should just report the facts without the bias- this is American media though so fat chance that happens.

Wasn't there some classification somewhere that states Fox News is an 'entertainment network' so they can get away with stuff news networks can't?

I may be naive on this one.

They can't be both a legitimate news outlet, billing themselves as "fair and balanced" while they're the television equivalent of that old supermarket rag "Weekly World News" that ran the old stories about the Bat Boy being on the loose every few months.
Personally, I'd think Rupert Murdoch would love to have a chance to rebuild his brand after the damage Ailes had done to it while he's still alive.
Rebuild? I doubt it. Readjust, maybe.

He, or his sons, will probably just tone down the hateful *** and just profit off of the already established Fox News right-wing niche.

Eh, this should probably be classified as a P&R thread. You can't mention Fox without people going nuts about politics.

There are elements within what the U.S. government considers the "friendly media" which are rebelling against the establishment.
You will see more scandals to try and make people look bad.
Employees at Fox are going against the globalist government [mind] control and are tired of all of the false narratives and lies forced upon them by the CIA / NSA etc. etc.

And the introduction of conspiracy theorists and their videos that nobody else is going to watch just strengthens my previous argument....

We used to have this thing called "the fairness doctrine." The GOP was SO happy to get rid of it. I think that the old GOP establishment might be regretting that about now.

Perhaps dim memories of the fairness doctrine are coloring your thoughts.

Unlike Canada, there is no requirement that any news organization in the USA has to speak the truth.

I don't think a single one of the major news outlets would have a clue how to tell the truth in the first place.

In fact, it's due to the demise of the fairness doctrine that networks like Faux Noise can openly engage in yellow journalism so often without being penalized for it.

You might want to work on your nickname. Fox Noise makes sense, Faux News makes sense, but Faux Noise doesn't make any sense. Fake noise isn't a thing.

Moved it back but only till it turns into politics rather than a commentary on a news outlet.

No one complained, you posted something provocative so I removed it in hopes of prolonging civility.

I posted the truth, and I didn't insult or demean anyone.

But I will let that go, I personally don't feel like being section banned, and then appealing to Rooks for a reversal for the 7th time today.
