The news industry is undergoing a structural shift as traditional advertising models fail and AI begins to automate basic reporting.

Outlets like The New York Times are diversifying into non-news products like games to remain solvent while others replace staff with generative AI.

Karl Rove's analysis on Fox News identifies three critical voter demographics for the Republican party: evangelicals, veterans, and small business owners.
