The problem is that the Fux "News" brand is toxic to the majority of Americans, so Fux has decided to stay with the right wing niche audience that keeps it afloat. That means that their propagandists Hannity, O'Reilly, Ingraham, and yes, Turdblossom Rove will stay in place. Here's what conservative David Frum had to say yesterday on Morning Joe-ker:
"Republicans have been fleeced, exploited and lied to by a conservative entertainment complex...there are too many to name. Because the followers, the donors and the activists are so mistaken about the nature of the problems the country faces...just a simple question, and I went to Tea Party rallies and asked this question, have taxes gone up or down in recent years? They can't answer this question."
