    Bill O'Reilly

    Sources: Fox News Has Decided Bill O'Reilly Has to Go


    The Murdochs have decided Bill O'Reilly's 21-year run at Fox News will come to an end. According to sources briefed on the discussions, network executives are preparing to announce O'Reilly's departure before he returns from an Italian vacation on April 24. Now the big questions are how the exit will look and who will replace him.

    That's gonna be a big blow for FOX. If I'm not mistaken his show constantly out-rates all other news shows.

    I wonder if the womenfolk will still be required to dress like hookers.

    Once Rupert is dead Fox will start going more left as the sons are not like the father.

    I don't think so. They make a whole lot of money running a conservative station, but their demographic is changing. Younger conservatives especially women, want to see women respected and will not tolerate rampant sexism. They also don't necessarily want to see all the female anchors in jewel-toned micro-mini dresses. The old guard is dying off and I think fox news is changing with the times (and they should!)

    I agree with you about the lack of respect and changes need to be made but the children are definitely more left wing than the Dad. Rupert is Australian and still has strong connections down here even though they live in America

    One son was interviewed and his comments were not that conservative but leaning left.
    I read his comments and was not happy. I can't recall which publication it was possible it was down here

    Put it this way don't be surprised once Rupert dies you see a change from the sons. One is slightly more left than the other

    I did a quick google search ....http://www.thewrap.com/sorry-dad-are...llary-clinton/

    Contrary to popular belief, Fox is NOT a conservative station, they only play one for ratings. They have representation of conservatives, libertarians and liberals. If they start skewing more towards the liberal side and the ratings start to slip, I think you'll see them go back to right. In the end, it's all about the dolla bills!
