Host Megyn Kelly has since taken over the 9:00 p.m. time slot that had been occupied for years by Sean Hannity, who is known for being more vitriolic and partisan than Kelly. Carusone argued that financial pressure, created in part by Media Matters, forced that shift.

"That was in large part because it's hard to ignore when your financial stakeholders are beginning to express concerns," said Carusone. "They're a business, after all. They act like a political operation, but they're still a business."
