Well guess what y’all, I work at the station in Chicago that was just bought. Nobody’s sure what’s going to happen. One school of thought is that it’s very institutionally tied to Chicago, and the marketplace is very democratic. If they try to change it, they’ll lose a shit-ton of money. We can only hope that their greed is stronger than their ideology.

Fox News lost hundreds of millions of dollars every year for the first 8 years they were in business. It was worth it to them; the tax rate changes once GWB had full R control of the house and senate, was more than enough to cover those losses.
