Not surprised. They're not doing it out of some newfound sympathy for the plight of working folks, but because even they recognize that the chaos and instability Trump brings is bad for business.

MODERATORS
After weighing the tax breaks and deregulation, the vast majority of corporations still continuously donated to the Christian fascist party throughout the last decade of open fascism.
Of course they don't like the idea of having to bend the knee and kiss the ring of King fascist, or the risk of being destroyed because they're arbitrary labelled too "woke" by a mentally ill cult, but the dramatically increased profit margins remain far too tempting for most.
Yeah, each one of them individually would be totally fine with it if they were being made King Fascist, but they can't allow anyone else to take the spot
That's why the media seems to be pro Trump.. chaos and turmoil sells their product for them.
these fucking people are finally considering that the societal collapse trump would bring might be bad for business?
The timing implies it's in response to Harris' new capital gains policy rather than any sudden crisis of conscience.
I'm gonna need them to create an account, log in, enable notifications, write a cover letter, and come talk to me at my workspace in person and then fill out this form three times for me to give a shit about rich people's politics.
Tell me about your bank account you rich twats.
Fox was not a name I expected to see on there given all they've done to supercharge the right-wing, but I suppose even Murdoch isn't crazy enough to actually think that it is a good idea to put Trump back in office
There was a schism between the murdoch camp and the Trump camp after they called Arizona “super early” for Biden in 2020 and Trump threw a fit. That’s when NewsMax and OAN kinda became his preferred, publicly at least, news platforms.

88, really? It couldn’t have been 87 or 89?
While they simultaneously donate to Republican PACs.
not sure if bad or marketing?
