re: #316 jamjam

Isn’t that a bit self-defeating for the networks, though, if true? Because if, say, FNC only supports the GOP because it makes money, and the network makes more cash with the GOP in opposition, then why would they try to get Republicans elected at all? Why would they support the GOP, when supporting the dems would be the more lucrative option (keeping the GOP in opposition)?

Because Fox will do well financially they really don’t care either way but having the “enemy” in power is a big ratings boost because they get to do all kinds of reporting on secret government plots and abuses of power that they won’t do if their party is in control.
