Today on Uncommon Knowledge, Andrew Ferguson and Gerard Baker discuss Fox News and the discipline imposed by the profit motive.

Ferguson: Fox does a lot of really terrible things. I mean, some of it is simply unwatchable – particularly at night. But its effect on the body politic…has been almost completely salutary and admirable I believe.
Baker: The view I take is it brings a much-needed diversity to the public discourse, which really, really would be absent – it really was absent – without it.
