Breitbart ^ | 11/16/2020 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 11/16/2020 6:45:02 PM PST by marcusmaximus

Halfway through Monday’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” host Tucker Carlson put to rest supposed rumors that his show would leave his current network.

Instead, Carlson said the show was not leaving, and instead, it was expanding its presence within Fox News.

Conservatives have lives to live. They dumped sports, look at the numbers. They’ve dumped Fox. Everyone in it. The only thing interesting about fox right now, and it is very interesting, is the figures on audience loss. Laura is holding at - 33%. Tucker was up there.

Conservatives watched hoping they could get hope on holding back the destruction of the constitution, cultural and political decline in this country

Fox told them on nearly if not the most important election night in history, that fox was going to help and root for the opponent, and spew lies, reject the truth and jump in with telling the audience there was
Something wrong with them and with their candidate, a position they’ve held since.

Fox will never be able to give its audience hope ever again.

No the audience will not return

The audience has sought

it’s not going to be a very popular thing to say right now . . . . however, conservatives will go back to fox once the election is over, especially if biden manages to take office; at that point, the resistance begins.

Not me. I don’t trust any of them. I’m sure many will, but I’m done with the constant attempts to manipulate me.

When your brain is all full of fk, you should just shut up.

Besides, kinda hard to go back when you cancel cable.

Glad to hear it...

If you are not going back to Fox, probably best that you don’t speak for anyone else...

Newsmax has many platforms...

Plus there is OAN on my phone. And there are other websites and sources for true news.

I don’t know what is up with Tucker, but the only way I will watch him is thru clips on other platforms besides Fox.

Yes, I read about Daily Caller not wanting to be associated with conservative websites supporting the Constitutional recount!

Very sad.

If Hannity and Tucker cared as they claim, they wouldn’t be silent on Chris Wallace not asking Biden one mildly difficult question

Bump.

Hannity and Tucker care most about maintaining their lifestyle. Morons here think their our great friends, because they prattle on TV.

They need to just be turned off. Even the "good" ones.

He did some bizarre, "Americans are so nice -- and our scenic beauty is amazing!" segment, last Friday. At the top of his show. While the country is politically on fire.

It's like they put Prozac in his bottled water at Fox. Last time I've watched him -- no more!!!

Newsmax has had 2.0+ million viewers very recently. That’s a significant recent increase.

It’s called a contract. He won’t go anywhere until he can. And then to the highest bidder.

My guess is that Tucker renegotiated his contract with a HUGE pay increase and freedom to run his show the way he wants

Tucker is holding all the cards, and FNC knows it.

Yep. He is in a fantasy world if he thinks his ratings will go up.

“ After his show extoling the physical beauty of the US and we should all feel good, I had to turn him off.”

That was Friday. It was exactly where I raced to turn him off. It was where I Clicked over to be sure everything else was off the DVR schedule

I Used to teach high school American lit. I am a veteran, my father was a marine pilot. I grew up on the north shore of Long Island. I was raised/taught by Dominican nuns I’ve been all around the world in wars and touring. And I’ve been all around America with friends from every state and background

If I ever tuned into fox it was to find reason to hope I can still teach kids about the beauty of our history and culture, the inspired near perfection of our constitution

I don’t tune into fox to learn about the US from people who are in on selling it to the highest bidder

What wa she thinking? It was the most obtuse thing I’ve seen since Dana scolded the president after his election night speech

That’s only if the big names don’t end their contracts and go somewhere else.

The big names could pool their resources and start their own network or purchase CNN and yet again dominate.

Hell, ask Levin for a million or 2 too.

I’d love to see the faces of CNN’s staff when they are told they have been purchased by a conglomerate of Conservative on air personalities.

I bet Rogan would even be game to become a silent partner...

Knew that way back when he wore bow ties - he’s a nothing burger and I don’t understand everyone’s obsession with him. haven’t watched Fox in years so as I saw that they were just as bad as the alphabet networks. Get my news here via links and such and try to educate myself on the topics via research, critical thinking and what passes the BS sniff test.

I watch the conservative shows on Fox but none other. If anyone wants to know about what’s going on, these guys and gals have it.

Fox and Friends both weekday and weekend mornings are solid. And then there is Maria Bartirona, Lou Dobbs on Fox Business, add to that Tucker Carlson, Mark Levin, Hannity, Laura Ingram, Jessie Watters, Jeanine Pirro and there are several others.

OAN and Newsmax are good and I hope they grow, but they are no match for those listed. The listed are favorites of POTUS also. So I think we must support them. They have done a great job for conservatism.

I do not think they will. But I do find myself wondering if you are right. I hear all the complaints about the NFL, but then I hear and see conservatives talking about the last game or next game. If you want to be heard, hit them in their pockets other wise you are not doing anything. FOX is dead. But then conservatives are saying, I only watch Tucker or, I only watch Tucker on YouTube. You think it is some random kid in his PJs counting the number of people that log into watch Carlson on YouTube. Conservatives need to dump FOX entirely. Newsmax and OAN do not have Tucker, but so what, he is just another news personality. Cut the cord folks at some point their numbers will cost them money.

Tucker better get serious equity or he’s just Hannity with a WASP accent. Screw Fox. The Murdoch kids (and their wives) are idiots. Jack Rupert for all the cash you can, refuse to sign a noncompete, and know that in 2022 you’ll be king of the hill when the GOP makes a serious run at House leadership.
