So the advertisers are A OK with the content they just had a problem with the talking head.

Lachlan Murdoch, executive chairman and CEO of Fox Corp., also noted that a Delaware judge “severely limited” Fox's defenses against Dominion Voting Systems, which said the network defamed it by airing bogus charges of election fraud that it knew was untrue.
Fox Corp. announced Tuesday that it had lost $50 million the previous three months, which it attributed to the lawsuit settlement. Murdoch, who answered questions from financial analysts, was speaking in public for the first time since the case ended and Fox fired its most popular anchor, Tucker Carlson.
RELATED COVERAGEMurdoch said viewers, and investors, should expect no change in direction from Fox News.
“We made the business decision to resolve this dispute and avoid the acrimony of a divisive trial and multi-year appeal process, a decision clearly in the best interests of the company and its shareholders,” he said.
Fox still believes it was properly exercising its First Amendment rights to report on newsworthy fraud allegations made by former President Donald Trump, even though that defense was shot down in a pre-trial court ruling in the Dominion case, Murdoch said.
That's important, since Murdoch said Fox intends to use the same defense against a similar lawsuit by another elections technology company, Smartmatic. That case is not expected to go to trial until at least 2025, he said.
Despite being asked directly about Carlson's exit, Murdoch didn't mention the former prime-time host's name and referred to his reign obliquely. Fox has not explained why it cut ties with Carlson.
“There's no change in programming strategy at Fox News,” he said. “It's obviously a successful strategy. As always, we are adjusting our programming and our lineup and that's what we continue to do.”
Fox and Dominion Voting Systems reached a $787 million settlement Tuesday in the voting machine company’s defamation lawsuit, averting a trial. (April 18)Although hurt by the Carlson exit, Fox News remains the leading cable news network.
Fox has lost viewers following Carlson's firing. Last week's substitute host, Lawrence Jones, reached between 1.28 million and 1.7 million last week in a time slot where Carlson usually drew around 3 million, the Nielsen company said.
Yet Fox has gained more than 40 new advertisers in that hour, the network said, confirming a report in Variety. Advertisers like Gillette, Scott's Miracle Gro and Secret deodorant that had considered Carlson's show a toxic environment have signed on.
ad revenue is inconsequential. cable carriage fees is where their profit is.

Which begs the question, why do cable providers agree to their terms? It must be because they are also OK with the messaging of the programs. Money talks as they say and if cable companies allow fox to charge what they charge and advertisers continue buying airtime, that to me is an endorsement of the programming.mickeyrat said:static111 said:

You side tracked me. The point I was making is that any advertiser that decides to start advertising now on fox just because tucker is gone is endorsing the rest of the programming and messaging. Which basically means they shied away from a controversial figurehead, but not the actual messaging and views of Fox News nor tucker's programming. What changed that Gillete, Scotts, and others now feel ok being affiliated with Fox News? Nothing really. One guy is out behind the desk, but the rage machine continues rolling down the tracks.mickeyrat said:static111 said:

Almost positive that’s how it is for YouTube also. No chance you have to watch a complete video for it to count as a view.mace1229 said:

If you click the tweet and it takes you to the page it shows "view" count. Not surprising considering he now has a worldwide platform and can presumably start saying whatever he wants to whomever he wants.mrussel1 said:

chicken or the egg question:
