Greta Van Susteren's sudden departure from the network is just the latest aftershock. Uncertainty abounds not so much about the business but about its broadcasters.
So far it's been mostly about subtraction. Van Susteren is just the highest profile departure; weekend "Fox & Friends" co-host Anna Kooiman said goodbye on Sunday, citing her husband's impending move to Australia.
Meteorologist Maria Molina signed off , citing a move to Michigan to pursue her Ph.D. More than half a dozen Ailes lieutenants have also left since July 21, the day Ailes resigned under pressure. Such turnover, both on air and off air, is highly unusual at Fox.
Kirsten Powers moved to CNN last month. But other talent changes are connected to the end of Ailes' tenure. Other hosts and commentators who were especially close to Ailes are also likely to leave in the coming months -- not necessarily by choice.
The network faces a big challenge next year when the contracts for two of its remaining prime time hosts Kelly and Bill O'Reilly are set to expire.
Would the Network continues to be Fair and Balance or may be just slightly tilted for now?
Just a thought.
