Greta was probably the most unbiased, credible show they had. Now even she's gone. And they are going to replace her with Brit Hume? He'll put the audience to sleep faster than a fifth of Jack at midnight.

Quite a bit of people have left Fox and more will probably go. I have noticed that they are becoming more cnn/msnbc ish. More Trump attacks as well. They will lose a lot of their viewership.

Since Ailes went down, Fox has been working towards becoming CNN Jr.
Rupert Murdoch is the current acting CEO of Fox News. He is a famous Clinton donor. You can't make this shit up.
Annyong!

How does something with no credibility lose credibility?

The problem is that Rupert Murdoch's sons are set to take over. Both of them are big time lib-tards.

The Conservative movement is dead. It does not even exist within the GOP any more. This year has made that painfully clear. :lol

Van Susteren is an Ailes partisan, so I don't see how this would affect their credibility.
Her contract had a clause she could leave if Ailes was no longer the head of Fox, it seems she enacted that clause.
She was one of primary folks defending Ailes back in July.
Fox News host Greta Van Susteren is surprised by her former colleague Gretchen Carlson's sexual harassment allegations against Fox News CEO Roger Ailes.
Speaking to PEOPLE about the situation, Van Susteren, who has been at the network for 15 years, admits she's never had an inappropriate encounter with Ailes and originally considered Carlson's allegations as those of a bitter employee.
"Of course, the first thing that occurred to me is that, unfortunately, we have a disgruntled employee, a colleague," she says. "I read that her show wasn't being renewed and , being a lawyer, I thought she got angry. I deal with Roger Ailes often. I've often been alone with Roger Ailes in his office over the course of 15 years and I've never seen anything like what I'm reading about in the papers and the magazine."

Someone tell this ugly bitch that just because Ailes didn't sexually harrass her doesn't mean he didn't do it to anyone else.
Ailes hits up young good looking chicks, Greta is old and homely af :facepalm

Says the guy who's party backs Hillary and changes their theology every other week.
Remember when Democrats supported Government Transparency?
But after Obama blocked the 9/11 documents and the wikilinks scandal.
No we don't have to know, it's all a Russian conspiracy. :facepalm

Her contract had a clause she could leave if Ailes was no longer the head of Fox, it seems she enacted that clause.
Actually it seems that she tried to use this clause to renegotiate her contract.
The Murdochs didn't take kindly to that and shut her down. (http://money.cnn.com/2016/09/06/media/greta-van-susteren-leaving-fox-news/)
A sharp knock on the door signaled that Greta Van Susteren's time on Fox News Channel was over.
A courier arrived at Van Susteren's Washington, D.C. home at 9 a.m. Tuesday, hand-delivering two letters that said that Van Susteren "was being taken off the air" immediately, according to her husband, John Coale, who is a high-profile Washington lawyer.
Van Susteren was already planning to leave, but she thought she would be hosting her 7 p.m. program "On the Record" for a few more weeks.
Yanking her off the air without a chance to say goodbye was "a bit immature," Coale remarked.
It was also a message from Rupert Murdoch.
Van Susteren has been one of the top anchors at Fox News for the past 14 years.
Murdoch, the patriarch of Fox's parent company 21st Century Fox, disliked her recent attempt to renegotiate her contract, and the unusual courier visit was a result of that, said one of the sources interviewed for this story.
The messy breakup is the latest sign of tension -- "chaos," according to Coale -- behind the scenes at Fox News.
Coale said Tuesday afternoon that there's "possible litigation in the future" between Van Susteren and Fox. He declined to elaborate.
Fox News declined to comment on Coale's remarks.
The network announced her departure less than an hour after the courier arrived. Van Susteren was not quoted in the press release.
Fox then deleted the "On the Record" web site, Van Susteren's biography, and her pioneering Gretawire blog -- essentially erasing her from FoxNews.com.
