Everyone makes money but I don’t see average Joe Foxnews watching the histrionics that the other two will probably resort to to get attention. There’s only so much actual talent out their and Fox News itself (Tucker and Laura) are already running out their second and third string.

We have a large population of people that will literally "channel surf" looking for lies rather than listen to facts or the truth.

As soon as FOX News reports one accurate news story (Biden won Arizona or Biden won the election) people suddenly abandon the network?

Wow.

How do you talk to people like this? How do you work with politicians elected by these kind of voters?

exposed for their lies. This will be interesting, will Fox commentators like Hannity and Tucker move to Newsmax? Will
Newsmax come up with people even worse? Trump? Will Trump fail at another business venture?
