News organizations are bound by shareholders to be forward-looking. So what does it say about Fox News, whose popularity took a hit over its election night coverage, that all of a sudden, it's moving its obvious #neverTrumpers away from the broadcast action as it seeks to regain market share?
Here's a tweet from NewsMax's Emerald Robinson, outlining a rough pattern: [Snip for tweet]. Now, this is just a back-of-the-envelope calculation. Some, such as Francis, are out for reasons that began before the election was over -- in her case, a pay dispute, while others, such as #NeverTrump Bila, are recent cutbacks. The depth of their #NeverTrump-itude varies, too.

Monica, Harris Faulkner is no #NeverTrumper. She has apparently been cut loose to speak her own mind, and it is anti-Biden, pro-us all the time now. She let the insufferable guest Dem operative Leslie Marshall have it the other day. It was beautiful. It happened at the end of a segment so ugly Leslie could not come back. We record and watch Harris every day and see no problem there at all.
As for Melissa Francis, Monica must not have been paying attention. Melissa regularly sunk the knife in Trump and his supporters. I was thrilled to see her gone for any reason whatsoever - just gone.

I vowed to stop watching Fox News for two years after it's participation in the election fraud last November. The early call of Arizona was the cue to begin vote stealing in other states. I stand by my vow and now get most of my news from places like Lucianne.com and other conservative web sites. After my two year hiatus from Fox News ends, I hope the purges there have by then included Neil Cavuto. This man, you might remember, discountd any election fraud and cut away from a White House news conference in mid-word. If Cavuto is dismssed, I might make some baby steps back to Fox, but only weekend programs.

Monica mentions Charles Payne as being a good guy, but leaves out Larry Kudlow, who is absolutely terrific and on the mark every day. His vacation standin this week, David Asman, is also fine and leans very right, being highly critical of Biden and his policies, as is Kudlow. And Jesse Watters is terrific. And Maria Bartiromo.
Monica needs to watch a little more...

If only Chris Wallace was on the list of those leaving.

How about Rivera........it's time to dump this "open borders" POS. The final straw with me was when he called Dan Bongino a punk (twice}.
Rivera had better watch his crap.....Bongino is one tough hombre and could crush Rivera with his thumb. Fox will never get back the the people they lost to NewsMax.

If Geraldo isn't already gone, he should be shown the door ASAP! He is a fool, never-Trumper, closet democrat, and an idiot. Did I miss anything?

During the farewell tribute to Juan on Wednesday evening, did you all notice that Greg was the only one who said nothing while the others were wishing him the best? And maybe Fox did offer Brazile a contract extension, but added that she could possibly do better elsewhere. I would be happy if they brought back Bob Beckel. I found him entertaining even though he’s a diehard crazy.

They were contract workers, hired for a specific job....getting rid of Trump. Now that this is accomplished, they are liabilities and are being shown the door.
Never fear that if Trump is re-elected the evil thugs like Ryan and Murdoch's boy will hire new antiTrump folks for that job, too.
I'm a NeverFoxer now, and they can't fix that up with a few adjustments. Get rid of Ryan, and get rid of the Murdoch boy....find a real conservative to run it, then MAYBE. As long as Ryan and Murdoch, Jr. run things, I'm GONE.

More "Democrats are afraid of a wipeout" garbage, They control the narrative in the country while we all gather at disparate spots we hope won't censor and ban jus, without holding a lick of political power.
Fox called Biden states immediately and withheld Trump calls, even before they signaled to start the steal with the Arizona state call. They also joined the media in branding us "red" in 2000 and called Gore for Florida while voters in the panhandle were still voting. They are traitors. Never, ever watch them.

The Five had Jessica “screech voice” Tarlov on in Juan Williams spot Friday. Juan was just an idiot but Jessica is unbearable. I had to turn it off.

I’m old enough to know that tv news isn’t really news anymore if it ever was..
The lies..the narratives..the hit pieces..
The never-Trump virus..
Worse than the Fauci experimental virus..
We need our own honest truthful conservative tv news network...
To tell those who still watch tv for their news
To tell them the TRUTH!
We have so many outlets on the internet
If only they’d merge to form a tv news network of conservative truth and opinion!
Heads would explode and Fox News would die at last....
We would then compete with the lies that spew out of their three corrupt networks!
This is my prayer this Memorial weekend.

#10 I don't watch The Five, but in addition to being uglier than a mud fence, Jessica Tarlov's voice to me is like fingernails scratching on a chalk board. I usually watch Tucker's show, Hannity and Laura may be on mute most of the time. I used to watch Gutfeld on Saturday nights, but don't like his nightly shows. I really could just turn off Fox, but it has been a habit for so long it is hard to do. Do not watch the morning or daytime shows, ever.

I think letting the above people go is a step in the right direction. Now get rid of Chris, Neal and Geraldo and we might have us a decent station after all! I forgot, definitely Jessica Tarlov. Hate that voice! I left FOX the day after the Election, but I've slowly returned to a few shows. I like Harris Faulkner's show, The Five and a bit of the Saturday Lineup now that that Bila Person is gone! Hopefully, they will keep cleaning House and adding a few more True Conservatives to the Lineup!

It seems to me most never trumpers came from the ranks of bushies. Time to dump jasper/dana.

Leland Vittert is gone as well, but Arthel Neville and Eric Shawn also need to be shown the door. Because the shows that I watch are on during the day I sometimes just have Fox on for background noise but I do watch Tucker and I record The Five and FF or mute Juan. I believe that Greg Gutfeld was probably ready to punch Juan out once they got back into the studio.

I watch America's Voice and Newsmax mostly nowadays. Just saying "sorry" does not excuse treason. But really, Rivera is easy. If it has skin darker than a (real) Norwegian, it can do no wrong. He is the world's worst melanin apologist.

The ultimate Never Trumper was Rupert Murdoch and he'll remain to profit from all of the suckers tuning in to hear about all of the bad things the Administration he helped install in power is doing. Son of Mike is also still there.
