I saw maybe 3 minutes of McCallum tonight, and in that time she managed twice to call Biden “president elect”. Is this the Fox company policy? Even before the votes are counted? One aspect that i have observed about great organizations and companies is that the vision, leadership and ethics flows from one person. In this case it was Roger Ailes. When they are gone, the enterprise often begins the process of devolving to more of a base case. It takes awhile but both internal and external influences begin to take their toll as the firm becomes "common". They become the norm, not the exception. Lots of pressure to conform. This isn't surprising. We have very very few exceptional leaders, society demands conformity and the Ailes and Trumps are the exception and not the rule. This is why DJT was so beloved, hated and embraced by those not commonly voting republican. He is a leader.

IMO, they didn't dare tell Tucker what to say. But someone said on twitter he had seen internal numbers and their Fri/Sat night numbers were below CNN & MSNBC's. A few more days of that might just enlighten them a little. Cavuto abruptly terminated an interview with Kayeigh McInenny (sp) today using Jake Tapper's rhetoric -- like, "I just can't allow that on this show" or something. It is possible the policy was set out about "President Elect", etc., and they laid it on a little too thick. But Tucker didn't seem to me to have backed down. Although, I didn't watch any of these shows in their entirety.
