The ratings at FOX were already shaky before O'Reilly & Kelly left, and now that they're gone the network has pretty much gone into the crapper.
Is anyone asking themselves where these viewers have gone? It's not like they all became liberals and are now watching CNN and MSNBC.
From the anecdotal evidence I see, my guess is that they've pretty much just moved to online sources. Does that concern anyone else?
FOX is/was FOX, of course, but at least O'Reilly & Kelly did provide serious moments of challenge to the GOP and to Trump (the primary reasons for the initial ratings decline, of course). Now, if these people are getting their "news" from Breitbart and WND and the rest, isn't this just going to lead to an even MORE pronounced clash of alternate universes?
I know the participants in the clash would be just fine with that, but I doubt the majority of us want to see this get even worse.
Thoughts?
