I'll take a wait and see position. Additional funding for science sounds great. Nat Geo retains editorial rights.
The Nat Geo channel (in bed with Fox since 97) may have more sketchy shows to compete for the dollar but have you watched them recently. Just pulled up their shows for the AM: Dead End Express, Alaska State Troopers, Rocky Mtn Law, Southern Justice, 9/10-The Final Hours, Smokey Mtn Money. Not what I think of when someone mentions Nat Geo.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

21st Century Fox =/= Fox news.
Although Rupert Murdock owns it all, they bought NatGeo like a decade ago, and the channel is not propaganda, it's what you would expect from the national geographic channel. The fox tv channel still has very liberal TV shows (Aka Family guy, AMercan Dad). It's only Fox news that he fucks with.
I am not worried. The staff making the magazine has not changed.

I mean, he (Rupert dickhead) OWNS Natgeo, and that is where Cosmos aired.....I have no idea why you are all freaking out.
