Ratings Dip Has Ailes “Pretty Agitated”

By Brian 

In A Q&A with B&C, FNC anchor Brit Hume offers his take on FNC’s ratings dip:

 What do you see as the problem with Fox News’ ratings?

The news this year has been less compelling. There’s a sameness about it. We’re down some; others are down less. CNBC is, but it’s starting from such a low number, it’s like going from zero to 0.1.Fox News CEO Roger Ailes is pretty agitated.

Roger is an extremely competitive man. Roger doesn’t just want to beat the competition, he wants to fling them down and dance on them. Roger is ferociously competitive. I like that attitude.
