They may be hoping Megan holds on to more of O’Reilly’s audience than Sean is.

Don’t think so. The OBloviator as you call him has the highest rated show on the network.

They are not stupid lol. He makes them money, whether you like him or not.

Hannity can go away for all I care. All he does is repeat is talking points. Plus, hopefully this will cut down on Rove’s appearances on Fox.

I may start to watch Fox again. Now if Cumulus would dump him on the radio, this would be a good day.

I surmise that since Gretta is leaving Fox, Hannity will get her slot

My prediction (actually my wish list)

Hannity goes to 10 PM
Greta goes to 7PM
Shep is reduced to his afternoon show.

Sorry. :)

It’s just an observation that Fox may be looking at how viable Reilly can be with a younger audience.

That was going to be my guess.

Hannity has his radio show, but he's become repetitive, interruptive, and usually interruptive over stupid personal inside jokes not pertinent to the discussion at hand. He also misses too many rebuttal opportunities and falls back on his repetitive talking points too often.

I expect Kelly to provide a sharper focus and challenge to her interviews, but I fear that she leans much further to the Left than people think - - at least to the Left of Hannity.

If she takes Greta’s place, I probably won’t watch her. I have gotten to where I like ole Greta. She has been becoming more and more conservative. Megyn can be pretty squirrely ideologically IMHO.

Megyn Kelly, big step down from Hannity.

I have problems with Hannity, but he does hit it out of the park every now and then.

Kelly will lean to the left on a lot of issues, imho.

Probably won't listen to her as background noise, which I do with Hannity.

But you have to remember it’s all about MONEY to these people.

Performance and what they do or say is second. MONEY is first.

Hannity has the 2nd highest rated show on the network. Which makes this decision curious at best.
