It may be a while before you see Tucker Carlson unleashed on a TV near you. You also may never hear the full truth regarding his falling out with FOX News.

Breitbart dropped a bombshell report on Thursday revealing that Fox News is scheming to keep Tucker off the air through the 2024 election.

Breitbart also revealed this pertinent piece of information: Tucker remains under contract with the network through 2024 despite losing his TV Show. This confirms Megyn Kelly’s comments yesterday that Tucker was never officially fired from FOX News.

Former Top Fox News host and insider Megyn Kelly reveals Tucker not actually FIRED from Fox yet— This is what's REALLY happening…

— Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson) April 27, 2023 Tucker at the moment is attempting to negotiate an exit package with FOX News to officially let him go. The progress regarding these negotiations is not known at this time.

But even if a separation agreement is reached, Tucker will be prevented from ever saying a cross word about the way Fox News has treated him.

So much for “standing up for what’s right,” the phrase Fox News uses when promoting its primetime lineup.

Breitbart reported:

Fox News is trying to sideline former Tucker Carlson Tonight host Tucker Carlson through the 2024 election, multiple sources familiar with the matter told Breitbart News.

Carlson’s current contract runs through December 2024, and as of now three sources familiar with the matter told Breitbart News that executives at the network are trying to keep Carlson on contract and not release him until after the 2024 election. The shocking decision to cancel Carlson’s top-rated weeknight program came just days after the network shut down its top-rated weekend program with host Dan Bongino. What follows here is an insider account from people actually in the know after Breitbart News spent the past several days interviewing key players in the personnel matters at Fox News, asking what really happened.

Lots and lots of podcasts he can be a guest on.

Carlson can voluntarily at least partially cede or give up his free speech rights by means of an valid arms-length agreement, which is what he appears to have done in the context of his current employment contract with Fox.

Yes!

And any law suit would last beyond the end of the contract.

My, you sure seem intent on making it seem Tucker is hog tied and helpless, does that make you happy? You work for Fox? You’ve spent the entire thread arguing with one after another on how hopeless his situation is. I wonder why.

His contract ends this year. How could they silence him next year?

It was reported he was getting a new Contract this year, how could it suddenly extend through next year?

He’s not hog tied and helpless.

At the worst he’s partially muted through December 2024, which of course includes the 2024 POTUS election cycle. Which is admittedly a major thing about which to be at least partially muted.

Given Fox News’s superior financial resources (at least for the time being), total commitment to the Big Pharma-fueled Deep State/globalist agenda, and its utter willingness to tank its future business prospects to advance that agenda (consider first its having totally thrown the fight against Dominion pre-trial, and now its decision to muzzle and park its biggest on-air personality/ratings draw on the sidelines), Carlson, as an individual person, with a need, the same as all of us, to live his life without excessive fear of reputational and financial ruin, will need to be realistic about what is possible in the context of upcoming negotiations to put a premature end to his employment contract.

And that is what his goal should be—to get Fox to agree to put a premature end to his current employment contract.

Tucker may not have physical custody of the tape, and it may have been handed over to his producers with certain stipulations.

” it’s time to ‘Bush Light’ FoxNews.”

They don’t care. For them, the ideology is driving their decisions. They’ll take a poison pill if it means stopping Trump.

You speak about that as if it is surely a loophole in his current employment contract. How certain are you of that fact? It seems as it it would be something about which the current employment contract would not be silent.

I’m thinking Carlson is crazed to get back on the air - so many stories he wants to tell.

I’d love to see Hannity, Ingram, Watters, Guttfield and the rest LEAVE. No one is going to watch them at FOX. Figure something out. We are starved for a powerhouse of information, truth seeking, and free speech venue.

Agree, people already know how FOX treated him, including leaking smears from that hateful woman with the dossier.

if he declares himself a candidate could they prevent him from making speeches and giving interviews?

Tucker has plenty of money.

A F-you Fox would be my reply.

But I have a short fuse when it comes to B.S.
