I must admit that whilst the magazine is always top rate the Nat Geo Tv that I've seen has always been very substandard in content. Always seeming to be designed by the person who really believes that TV should aim at the lowest IQ possible for its presentations.
Sadly these days money talks and downsizing is something I'm seeing everywhere. Which makes sense as most companies grew up in times of more affluence and now times are harder they are forced to downsize. With advertising also being almost a lifeblood of many publications and internet websites things are getting lighter in content and heavier in adverts. Heck some magazines in the UK are almost half adverts.
Nat Geo doesn't sound like the sort of thing that will thrive under Murdock unless "he" and his industry keeps it hands off. That said chances are they either got offered so much money that they could not resist or were in hard times and needed a bail-out (companies and indeed individuals are very good at hiding such information from general knowledge so it can be surprising when we assume they are doing well and suddenly it turns out - no - nothey are not doing well)
