Yeah, it's a tough call. As it stands, the viewership is low which will impact advertising revenue. I get the feeling that the expectation was the this channel would be more Fox News for the UK than it is. You could see a drift further right to differentiate which might get more viewers but might also scare off more advertisers.

Bearing in mind advertisers bring in money, not viewers, it's a tough call
