To be honest it would just be better that these corporate media giants fail. They are mainly toxic and beholden to corporate interests/ad revenue over anything else.

Due to how this stuff works, even if the rest goes bankrupt, FOX News is still going to generate enough profit to keep going.

I'd like to see all of the media giants fail but like you said, Fox will probably find ways to continue through fear and manipulation. Ideally there needs to be populist media organizations which focus on journalism that provides a backbone for the working class and isn't afraid to critique structures of power no matter which side holds the power. With the current corporate structure, it is the antithesis of working class values. One of the few media organizations trying to go the grass roots route is The Lever.
