(3,666 posts)except his base imbibes Fox like it was their life blood. I don't think Fox relies on sensible people like us to watch them at all. Not part of their target demographic. So we could boycott them as long as we like. It will have no effect.

(81,179 posts)make SURE that you SPECIFY that youre boycotting because theyre FOX News sponsors. Many of these advertisers buy packages that spread around to other cable outlets. Just at a glance, I recognize a lot of advertisers who also run spots on MSNBC and CNN and such.

(17,862 posts)to get through the sound wall. You can add Rush, Hannity, and the others on the radio as well. I think it will get even worse once Fox is bought by Disney and the news group becomes a bigger part of Murdoch's interest. Perhaps revenue from the other areas helps to paper over a loss leader, but Fox has huge viewership. Neither CNN nor MSNBC have the level of on message control of Fox (MSNBC even has a Republican as one of their leading voices).

(17,862 posts)What I mean is that Murdoch will have a smaller sandbox to play in, but one he enjoys tinkering with. It could be that the entertainment portion which is being sold to Disney was the cash cow keeping the News department going.

(4,079 posts)I think if Rupert gets a whiff of blood in the water he'll gladly turn his attack dogs on the orange menace. He only decided to support him when it was obvious he would be the gop nominee. I don't think he would mind Pence taking over. Easier to control.

(10,302 posts)Trump TV, for the base and by the base.
Example... How many here shop Hobby Lobby? I don't.
Fake Prez's base is sufficient to ensure Fake News Channel isn't horribly underwater financially.
BTW cable news doesn't make much money. I know Sky News in the UK loses money, but exists as a public service and to counter the licence fee funded BBC News Channel... And ITV tried a news channel but couldn't make it work financially. Though ITV News is on par with BBC News.

From the website Boycott Fox News (dot) com:
Sponsors listing A-L

Sponsors listing M-Z
http://foxnewsboycott.com/fox-news-sponsors/fox-sponsors-m-z/
They give Bill O'Reilly as a "current" show host, but he's been off the air for a couple of years.
So I can't vouch for the rest of this info.

(315 posts)The new Fox News slogan is "Real News. Real Honest Opinion"
They may be losing viewership because their base of scared, old, white people don't live forever.
I saw a few Fox News posters on trains near me and felt that they needed correction.
I printed out labels with "Fake" and "Racist" in black letters so that the slogan now reads
"Fake News. Real Racist Opinion." At least people will know what they're getting if they tune in to Fox News.

exboyfil
(17,862 posts)I don't any information gets passed back (of course I am still using a coaxial cable connection). Maybe the new boxes keep track of this information. I am not sure I am comfortable with that, and I sure would want to know.
We have Basic Cable (no CNN, MSNBC, Fox). I have been far happier saving the $35/mo. and not having those stations. I don't even miss ESPN. My wife likes the HGTV channel, but she doesn't miss anything else. I did hate giving up AMC for some of the shows.
LiberalArkie
(15,707 posts)program ratings. Channels take valuable space on the cable. Although some companies pay the company to carry them, most don't.
If you had a package that had fox and cnn and no one in your town clicked on fox and everyone did on cnn, fox would probably disappear.
Anything you do is quantified. They could care less about your name or anything, just what programs people in you demographics watch. That way when contracts come around for negotiation they know what to purchase.
Same way with the highway depts. how do they know where to put a stop light. They put those hoses out that count cars. Hit a certain number in a certain time, and a stop light is ordered out.

(37,648 posts)I looked at the list of advertisers. It's a huge list. I don't think most people can give up doing business with that many companies. It includes insurance companies and pharma companies.
Maybe the sponsors of particular shows? Like Hannity's show? Tucker Carlson's?
And boycott the network? Giving up a few entertainment shows is easy. That boycotts the advertisements of all those companies.

I would say that BILL GATES, or WARREN BUFFET, or any of these other billionaires who claim to care about the current state of politics in america should BUY TWITTER and cut this guy off!
They should also buy FUX NEWS, and REFORM it into a REAL news organization, instead of an evil propaganda machine.
