Murdoch talks to Trump all of the time, but we are seeing an increase in negative press from those properties towards him. We even had the Fox News reporter go toe-to-toe with SHS in the briefing room yesterday and then get on air and blast the administration for the lack of on-camera briefings.
Fox seems to be making some sort of effort to portray themselves as a "mainstream" news source since Trump was elected. They have been siding with the rest of media when Trump attacks the media. It is rather interesting, considering their past and how they built their support. But then again, criticizing a conservative political figure and actually agreeing with liberals or progressives on any issues (whatsoever) are two very different things.
