The Mouse kills the Fox

Ever since The Great Mouse purchased 21 Century Fox, Fox News has insidiously spiraled down the toilet. The once fair and balance network, has already openly joined hands with the fake news network CNN, in attacking the White House. So what could be the driving force within this rabid rodent?
First off, the largest share holder is Laurene Powell Jobs (widow of Steven Jobs of Apple). At her nearly a $9.5 billion position in Disney, she owns around 7.5% stake in the company. www.fool.com...
Added to her fortune is a $2.8 billion bite in Apple. She is also a staunch proponent of The DREAM ACT. www.wsj.com...

The second observation is closely nit to the first. President Trump has threatened China with tariffs. www.cnbc.com...
This would plummet the rotten Apple off the tree. After all Laurene is not concerned with Americans getting work or she would have moved production to the USA.

Thirdly, Laurene Powell Jobs is on the A list, supporting (wait for it) Hillary Clinton. No surprise here. time.com...
This socialist hypocrite is now fighting for her late husbands fortune, her easy way of life, and perverted Clintonian ideals.
There is too much money behind gutting Fox news.
The only hope is if the honest people of Fox News, both past and present, to form a new network.

It sucks when people with an agenda take over our news outlets. We will only be able to find the strong liberal propaganda shortly and the strong liberals are tired of being suppressed, they will take over and force everyone to comply with their illogical path they are on. A good mixture of conservative and liberal is needed to form a strong but evolving society. Too much liberal leads to a collapse of the economy, too much conservative leads to being left behind on the world market. Too much liberal leads to too much dependence on the liberal pushy sales scams.

Some Other European countries have reversed their liberal moves and are trying to make sure their economy is secure and that their healthcare is not a scam. I study a lot of how they are adjusting their policies and opting for treatments that cure diseases instead of treating the symptoms. They are banning many of the chemicals that are sickening their people, here it is praised as GRAS and pushed on people so the ones who push change and dependence can increase profits.

Ok, had my say. Just my opinion from observation.

I'm pretty sure Fox news was not allowed to go to Disney.
Regardless, the deal is not finalized so Fox is still fox for the moment.

I think the "cleansing" of FoxNews was a hidden part of the buyout deal.

💥😨💥

As part of the Disney-Fox merger, 21st Century Fox will spin off Fox News, Fox Business, and the Fox broadcasting network into a new, separately traded company

So Tucker Carlson is only there to fool Republicans in to thinking it's still the same FOX.
Token conservative.

Great way to kill a company, go join CNN in the race to the bottom!

I never said that about Tucker. I did say this,"The only hope is if the honest people of Fox News , both past and present, to form a new network." That includes Tucker.

I thought Disney has received shareholder approval to buy 21st Century Fox, not Fox News?

I think Comcast is lining up to buy Fox News but there is also talk of spinning Fox News and a few affiliated companies into a new business.

All of it still spells death to the fair and balanced news from FOX.

So, never mind the facts.

Every time I have watched Fox News, it has been a number of talking heads discussing their opinions (ad nauseum). Have they started presenting the news now?

Fair and balanced news would provide incontrovertibly truthful facts (something clearly not 'fake news') with great detail and little commentary.

Here is an example of such 'real news' that I came across recently in another ATS thread. Compare it against what Fox News does: WIS News article.

I miss the MacNeil/Lehrer NewHour. An hour spent on 2 or 3 stories. Not sound bites.

According to many sources, Fox News was a part of 21Century Fox:
www.npr.org...
www.fastcompany.com...
www.theverge.com...

So who is wrong, these sources or you?

You.

Your sources:

Disney's deal includes the 20th Century Fox film and TV studios, along with the FX cable channels, Fox's stakes in Hulu, Sky, National Geographic Partners and more.

www.npr.org...

Fox News is not going to be part of Disney.

www.fastcompany.com...

It would keep the Fox Broadcasting Company television network, and it would retain some core Fox television properties, including:

Fox News Channel
Fox Sports
Big Ten Network
Fox Deportes

You, again, are in error.
My sources are proven, posted, and public.
I stand by my OP. Disney is destroying 21Century FOX. By cobbling the giant, you force it to crawl.
Merry Christmas

I'm done with FOX! Except for a few, Murdoc has perverted all of his remaining staff to berate, besmirch, and defile President Trump. They have even taken Judge Jeanie and sent her out to find castles! I admit, I haven't watched the morning show, Tucker, Hanady or Gutfield's in a while, so it maybe the last honest fox group out there.
