The Fox News Channel and Fox Business Channel exist in the spirit of Rupert Murdoch lover of Sex and Capitalism.
When Roger Ailes arrived on the scene and built his "Fox News Channel" several decades ago Roger brought his GOP Establishment loyalties and sexual proclivities to the table.
Ailes built an institution that billed itself as the "Fox News Channel: Fair And Balanced" but it could also have been billed as the "Fox Chick Channel; Breast And Leg".
When women first did television news the Roger Ailes sexualized way was not the norm heck Jessica Savitch female news pioneer once told David Letterman about what she did on the open set when she wore a dress.
Savitch used heavy "gaffer tape (duct tape)" to tape her legs together.
This sexy presentation of the news that eventually led to even Roger Ailes own demise did have a more serious purpose.
Rupert Murdoch (Moloch) was a global capitalist and international businessman he clearly was a Globalist, Internationalist building his business in nations around the world including China when that was fashionable.
For business to succeed the vehicles of success were mainstream political parties that capitalists gave their money to.
Murdoch could support Conservatives in the UK but he could also support the Labor Party as well in its crony capitalist Tony Blair incarnation that has been resurrected by current leader Sir Keir Starmer.
Who knows what Lachlan Murdoch will end up doing with the channel in the future but the Fox News Tradition is Capitalist and Globalist Moderate and Centrist.
The astroturfing, the gaslighting was to suck in Conservatives so Moderate Republicans could be positioned as the good people or at the very least less offensive than the "radical, extreme" Democrats or Leftists ala Bernie Sanders or AOC etc. etc.
So along comes Tucker Carlson doing what Glenn Beck used to do but even more precise and to the point in his delivery of information and of explanation.
It should come as no surprise that Carlson would end up suffering the fate he did.
