In a recent interview with Russia Today, Afshin Rattansi, a Middle Eastern affairs journalist whos appeared on the BBC, CNN and Bloomberg, said that he believes Fox News is finished if U.S. authorities can prove that News Corporation employees attempted to hack into the voicemails of terror attack victims killed on Sept. 11, 2001.
The Democrats have nothing much to do, but they all hate one influential cable channel: Fox News, he said. Im hearing, if the 9/11 victims have been hacked by subsidiaries of News Corp., then Fox News is finished.

I doubt very much that Fox News is finished. They've got too strong a grip on the Republican Party for that to happen.
It makes a nice fantasy though
Who is going to hire all those soon to lose GOP candidates if Fox goes under? It's an analogy similiar to Israel. It's better to have a home for these people far away then having them around cluttering up the immediate neighborhood.
