Roger Ailes after having been fired for sexual harassment has died. Bill O’Reilly, also having been fired for sexual harassment is now forced out to an even deeper backwater of The Blaze to express his views. Megyn Kelly having fled Fox for greener pastures and perhaps a place that would not have allowed the disrespect she endured with Donald Trump during the recent election campaign. The last big name of Sean Hannity is reportedly either about to be fired, let go or quit Fox over the fake news story of murdered DNC staff Seth Rich, who Hannity has claimed to have been murdered by the DNC as a reprisal for leaking to Wikileaks. This new story having been debunked not only by the liberal media (Like that exists anymore…), but even Fox news itself. Advertisers having seen what happens when they act without conscious in the election of Trump are now using those ad dollars in a more respectful manner to run away from controversy. They ran from Bill O’Reilly because he was been chased with sexual harassment claims. Who wants to be associated with that sort of legal quagmire even if only to be seen by advertising on that persons show? Now word is coming down that Hanity is losing advertisement. Reports behind the scene say that the Murdock Family is facing stiff opposition in their business affairs in Europe over the policed of the American network itself, once the most profitable arm of the family’s empire but now suffering the lowest ratings in its seventeen year existence. People are fleeing Fox for CNBC or CNN and taking their viewing tax dollars with them. The question is why? Or better put why now? The answer is, laughable, Marxist. The internal dialectic having reached open contradiction with itself has cause the system to collapse and new one to emerge just as all economic levels have done before. (Editor’s Note: I cannot believe, for the first time ever, I have found a use for Marxian Dialectics in action!) Fox has always had an older crowd of people. These people were the strong backbone and the secret of its success. They were mostly white males for a long ago era where white males were able to be superiors, racists and sexist. Women knew their place and blacks where openly treated as inferior. All of which is the editorial policy and face of Fox. Whenever they brought someone black on, they inevitable blamed blacks for their own problems. Women were all in skirts and high heels. Men were all in business suits. Even the set designed to show the women and their legs off. Such small things caught the viewer’s attention. This is not to say that people where not tuning in over content. We have to keep in mind that retired people, the same people who watch Fox tend to vote in the 90% plus percentile. So any political message will send them to the polls with the intent of delivering the Fox message to the political class. This has worked for near 20 years. Until now when it does not work. See it was safe to play the spoiler, to act as a trouble maker so long as there are responsible adults in the room. Obama was a mature, respectful leader. Now America has Trump. And on just one issue, out of the overwhelming many issues, we can see exactly why people have fled Fox. Health Care reform. It is one thing to laugh as other groups are picked upon and targeted by Fox and their policies of divide and conqueror but those policies are now turning on the very people who sponsored them. Simply put, if republicans repeal Obamacare, The Affordable Health Care Act, some of the people most in need of its services being the elderly, will see their premiums rise near on 5 fold. Thus making the sheer cost increase too vast to be covered by people on fixed incomes. Suddenly, when for the longest while you have had it so good, and suddenly someone will take that people want to know what is going on. They turn from the cartoon entertainment to real news and drift over to a real news station. Hence, the decline of Fox and hail to the new ratings King of cable TV, CNBC. The only other aside for your consideration, must be the simple aging of the population. As that audience dies off, it is not being replaced. Thus making Fox into a generational phenomena. And like all movements based on a set cohort, when the cohort dies, so too does the movement. Is Fox dying or merely weathering on the vine? Time will tell. Just don’t expect that Fox will fairly report this story in any balanced fashion, any time soon.
