Soon we'll have people calling Murdoch "a member of the Soros cabal"

Think about it this way.. Murdoch spent $800 million to prove there was no evidence of election fraud.. setting up newsmax and such to be liquidated, and then fired one of the most powerful"real talk" folks who fought against the "uniparty" right before debt limit talks. To conspiracy theorists like Freep, with friends like that who needs enemies?

It would appear Fox has committed marketing suicide, and such a decision entailed more high level input than the clueless Ivy League woman at Anheuser Busch had when she hired Dylan Mulvaney. Fox, like Rush Limbaugh and William Buckley, formed the right side of the Overton Window of acceptable opinions. You may be right in that the Deep State has decided to forego even a pretense of “fair and balanced”.

The modern revisionists and reactionaries call us Stalinists, thinking that they insult us and, in fact, that is what they have in mind. But, on the contrary, they glorify us with this epithet; it is an honor for us to be Stalinists.

I doubt this person cared about Fox having "teamed up with NeoCons" when Sodamn Insane was preparing to obliterate America with his totally real WMDs and any critic of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan was treated as a traitor by Hannity, O'Reilly, etc.

Just goes to show how the Bush Administration has been wiped from memory among practically all Republicans.

content: Tucker brought young Democrat viewers. This will hurt the Conservstive message ability.
Agreed.
Some of our conservative friends and FReepers are saying today: "Tucker should do a podcast, like Joe Rogan... or go to Rumble, Real America's Voice, Newsmax, etc."
Rumble, RAV, OAN, podcasts, even Newsmax are all well and good, but they are all fringe networks / sites that don’t attract as many eyeballs as a major network like Fox News (love it or hate it) did with shows like Tucker, etc. These sites just don’t have the “reach”.
So we conservatives will now have to 'settle' for watching / listening to fringe sites, rather than tune into the Big Dog Fox News, that successfully annihilated all its competetion over the past 21+ years?? This is just what The Left wants. For us to be relegated to The Fringe.
I consider this a BIG blow to “our side”. The Left won big here and will be celebrating this ‘victory’ for years. ?

That being said, I WILL tune into Newsmax TV tonight. A lot of former Fox News anchors who are now there have been dishing about their former network and Tucker Carlson all afternoon. They promise more tonight in prime time.

I saw where this was going years ago in the Navy. While standing in line for liberty while my Frigate was tied outside of a supply ship, this happened: A guy in line told a female sailor walking by the line in civilian clothes "Wow, you look nice". It was about 5 minutes later a female CPO took him out of the line.
The stupid part is she was dressed for success, if you know what I mean. She couldn't just say "thank you" as she continued to walk on? It really demoralized many on my Frigate for months. Thankfully, at that time women were not allowed on combat ships. Now they're on submarines with it's extremely limited space. Anyone here have experience or knowledge of mixed sexes on subs?

Again a very likpatous story
If the whole "young Democrats watch Tucker Carlson" thing isn't just an "overheard in a hipster coffee shop" thing, I assume what they're talking about is that there are a lot of Twitter accounts/youtube personalities who will play clips from Tucker Carlson to roast him or go "This is why everything he said is total bullshit." In that sense, I guess a lot of young Democrats do watch him, though most of them are either going "what the gently caress" or "lol what a dipshit." I suppose there is a statistically insignificant number that might go "Wait actually he's right about everything!"

It’s simply that someone in their life has told them young democrats watch Tucker Carlson. That’s it. Or they’ve seen someone else online make a post claiming the same thing. That’s all it takes.

"Look out, the young people coming up now are going to be super turbo conservative!" is something I've been hearing for more than 20 years. In reality, every year young people have moved further and further away from the Republican party.

it's just cope, mixed with some fundraising grift (for donors to give piles of money to people like Ben Shapiro and Charlie Kirk so they can do youth outreach since they're so in tune with the kidz today).

The modern revisionists and reactionaries call us Stalinists, thinking that they insult us and, in fact, that is what they have in mind. But, on the contrary, they glorify us with this epithet; it is an honor for us to be Stalinists.

I see similar attempts to insist the Republican Party is becoming "more moderate" as younger people take the reins, even though the criteria for "more moderate" seems limited to two things:

1. Justifying reactionary policies and worldviews by invoking "facts and logic" rather than the Bible.
2. A greater willingness to have conservative lawmakers who happen to be homosexuals (George Santos was supposed to be a public face of this shift.)

Since this isn't very compelling, they tend to resort to arguing that Democrats have become "far-left" and how you must vote Republican before Joe Biden institutes the dictatorship of the woketariat or whatever.

Tucker had to be shut down. Too many Democrats were tuning in and listening - actually listening. He was a threat like Trump. His farewell video clip is over 40M views in 12 hours.

Honestly? I think the demographic for network news in general skews much, much older than the cable people want to admit.

The demographic of people we know who watched Tucker regularly are in-between seventy to eighty years old widows and married couples—in other words, people who are too used to passively “watching tv” and having “news” spoon fed to them, rather than go to the internet.

I deleted the FOX app when they colluded to destroy Donald Trump. Never had cable and rarely watched from hotel rooms.

I was interviewed by a lefty reporter about the Trump election. He said “But FOX, who all conservatives watch called the election for Biden, what are your thoughts about that?”

I said “I couldn’t tell you, I don’t watch FOX.” The guy was literally speechless.

Really?

What part of Trump's first administration was not conservative?

Was it:

Low inflation?
Low unemployment, especially for blue collar work?
Rising real wages?
Standing up to China and tariffs?
Building a wall and having the most secure border since the 1960s?
Cheap gas, super high oil production?

That is an incomplete list but please tell us what is not conservative about any of those things?

It’s just like the Bud Light thing, you people still don’t understand grand strategy very well. Fox knew this would happen, but ratings are not the point, nor are ratings important!

It’s about marginalizing us, and when that is the mission, any means to that end is ‘profitable ‘ to the deep state. Profit can mean more than dollars and cents calculations. The left profits socially from this, which is more valuable to them than a short term loss of dollars from low ratings.

Ratings will rebound, because conservatives do not boycott well. Conservatives have comfort zones, and any outrage is always very temporary, i.e. NFL, NASCAR, MLB, NBA etc...to be followed soon by Bud Light and FOX news. The left knows you will be back shortly, all the previous data shows this to be the case.
