    You heard wrong. Fox is loosing one demographic, not entire ratings....on that Fox is still dominating.

    Rachel Maddow is first now in that time slot or so I read. I have no idea what kind of programming Fox has all day long or who the folks on camera are. I only know/knew about O'Reilly/Hannity. After O'Reilly left who replaced him? Sean Hannity I suppose will always be there but does he have the viewership? Are you still faithful to Fox m2c? Who is or was your favorite news analyst/journalist/commentator? Whom do you or did you rely on the most for the truth?  Thank you for your reply and Happy Monday! :)

    No it is just one demographic.

    O'Rielly was replaced by Tucker Carson. And the The Five moved to Tucker's old spot. I am busy this time of year so I don't get to watch as much news. But if I am watching in the evening it will be Fox. I still like O'Rielly, followed by Hannity, Tucker is good. I just cannot take the other stations. Greta is on MSNBC now but I never really cared for her either.  But I do channel surf between the news stations during the day and mornings.
    I still say it would be kind of funny if NBC grabbed O'Rielly and put together FOX's old evening lineup (minus Hannity): Greta, O'Rielly, Megan Kelly. That would be funny and a great business move for NBC.

    I am not a fan of  Greta Van Susteren's (sp). Never was. Never will be. There is something disjointed and choppy about her delivery and the questions she asks. I wonder if her contract at Fox was not renewed or if she chose to jump ship? I don't know if I told you this but years ago Jim and I used to watch Bill O'Reilly daily! I really looked forward to his shows believe it or not. Then something changed and he seemed much less of what he portrayed himself as..."fair and balanced". So we stopped watching! I wonder where he will land? He probably doesn't need the money. Thank you for your reply m2c and Happy Tuesday to thee! :)
