After the 2020 election, Fox News seemed to be trying to distance the network from Trump, while Tucker did the opposite, despite his private disgust toward the former president.  Murdoch is also said to be concerned over Carlson’s coverage of the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, in which the host has promoted the conspiracy theory that it was provoked by government agents and that the rioters were there as peaceful protesters.

Fox News may be as SOL in regards to Trump as the rest of the "we're just in it for the money, we don't believe it" GOP folks.  Trump isn't going to care that Fox News lost over half a billion bucks kissing his ass and lying for him.  He's going to rip into them for refusing to tell the "truth" or "fight for him."  You can never win with narcissists, you'll throw everything you have into a black hole and once your lose your last dollar, your last friend, or your last drop of blood and expire they'll just say "You never helped me at all."

I get that Fox can't just keep paying these things out, but until the MAGA wing of the GOP fizzles out I don't see how any network that wants to keep the MAGA base happy and watching will be able to NOT say whatever insane thing Trump says is true.
