Fired Fox ‘Wannabe Dictator’ Producer Heads for a Better Job
Independent Sentinel ^ | 6/17/23 | M. Dowling

Posted on 06/17/2023 7:29:04 PM PDT by CFW

Tucker Carlson began his most recent episode of Tucker on Twitter relating the story of a top Fox News producer who was just fired by the network. The producer had been with the network for a decade.

His offense was to air a chyron calling Joe Biden a “wannabe dictator” under a clip that was up for 27 seconds. The White House and other leftists immediately complained with Fox speedily apologizing.

Fox News ran two live video feeds next to one another. On the right, Donald Trump addressed his supporters in New Jersey. On the left, Joe Biden spoke at an event for the secretary general of NATO in Washington. Beneath those videos, at the bottom of the screen, Fox’s banner read “wannabe dictator speaks at the White House after having his political rival arrested.”

It appears the top talent from Tucker Carlson's Fox show are leaving to join Tucker in his new endeavor. And, like this one, I suspect they will all do it in style.

If you actually THINK about it....at one point manufacturing was a good / decent gig. Now manufacturing a viewpoint(no matter where it derived from)is a good paying job? Hell, pay me and I’ll tell what you should think!

You can criticize Biden all you want, except for telling the truth. Tyrants hate it when you call them tyrants.

It is much like the sites that ban comments that mention Biden’s dementia and failures. Those will not be allowed due to violating “community standards”. However, comments calling Trump all types of vile names and accusing him of crimes without evidence are allowed with no problem.

Wish Fox had poled the viewers (including me) who saw the chyron. The leftists and White House don’t matter since they have the vast majority of other “news” outlets on their side.

Just like narcissists. They too can't handle the truth when it's about them and something they don't want to hear regardless of how factual it is. It's a huge trigger for them.

China Joe is a domestic enemy tyrant but he was a narcissist first.

FNC removed it as soon the rats who now run things there saw it, 37 seconds to be exact. Then they leaped to apologize to Traitor Joe. What will it take for you to realize they are the enemy now?

I make no apologies for Fox. It is far from perfect, but I challenge you to watch CNN, MSNBC, and Fox and tell me that they are all the same. Tell me that Jesse Watters is no different from Rachel Maddow or Joy Reid.

Was the complaint that Bidet is an ACTUAL dictator?

When was the last time you actually watched a show on Fox, including, say, Jesse Watters?

Sounds like he wanted to get fired and went out with a bang.

Yours is the argument l used to make. In my view it is no longer tenable. Removing Tucker was the last straw for me. Jesse’s little show is an outlier now.
FNC is at best the voice of the Rino now. It is run by Ryan and the Murdoch kids. They ridicule anyone who even alludes to voter fraud with as much vigor as CNN or MSNBC. They are controlled opposition, an insidious facade of an opposing view to the ruling Democrat/deep state class.
