Maybe they know it's a dead issue and they've lost.

Same sex marriage is a win-win for gay people and Republicans. Gay people get to marry whomever they want, and Democrats have one less bread and circuses issue to focus on that Republicans tend to trip over.

They actually help perpetuate the thing they hate most.

Lost what? They capture more audience than the next 3 majors combined.

Sorry... the thing about uber-liberalism is that their causes are never over.

Re: Fox News, it depends on the commentator or personality they have on. People like Huckabee certainly oppose SSM. I'm guessing Megyn Kelly and the like are probably fine with it.

The gay marriage debate. Their ratings don't mean nothing in regards to them recognizing that they're beating a dead horse that they used to own.

Are you purposely trying to rile up the anti-gay"marriage" conservative Christian crowd who are likely Fox News viewers? Sounds like it, as I haven't seen any anti-Fox threads recently.

I think there is a term for this kind of thread starter.

I'm sure many of them do.
Then there's that gay guy they have on sometimes - don't recall his name - he said he has "insiders" in Russia who think Putin's problem with gays is because Putin is fighting coming out of the closet himself. Totally different topic though.

Megyn Kelly, being Christian, is probably not "fine" with it.

Personally, maybe. But their job is to be opposed to it. Until it's not.

The question this thread starts with is strange to me: isn't Fox News a news station? Their job is to report on issues, not support or oppose them. Asking the question implies that Fox News isn't there to provide news, and this is accepted fact.
