Any wonder there are mumblings the Murdoch boys want to sell Fox?

Robert Barnes made an interesting comment on a Rumble near the end of their discussion about Fox: while the Deep State actors think they squelched a populist voice, they may have destroyed the 'gatekeeper'. I tend to agree.

Tucker was the only program that we watched on Faux. We are completely done with them.

FOX is a cash cow.

Number one in cable, number one in news, bar none.

Over 200 million viewer monthly.

Whoever wants it, will have to pay a very hefty sum.

But, some FOX hating democrat somewhere might want it in order to destroy it.

Elon Musk should look at it if it's actually for sale.

If tucker is going to do a show then he needs to go somewhere that has free access or he will not reach very many people.

When reached for comment, Herring told Times of San Diego via email: “It would be great if we could get Tucker! I might give him around $25 million. And he would be well worth that!”

Negotiating publicly, a rookie mistake. OAN took their best shot and missed. Carlson's going to command more than that now...

Tucker has plenty of options he’s certainly not going away. He has a net worth of $420 million so it’s not like he has to rush with a decision of what he wants to do going forward. I think he should have a talk with Elon before doing anything else.

No. OAN sucks. Its production values are the worst I've ever seen. In the old days of Hollywood they had some bottom of the barrel studios known as "poverty row". OAN brought poverty row into the Internet information age. If Tucker wants to work, he should negotiate with Newsmax.

OAN and Newsmax are both being sued by Dominion. They can’t settle because they do not have Fox level money. They will have to fight and may lose and be destroyed. Tucker probably does not go to either. I’m sure he will have many other opportunities.

Tucker could bring back the bow tie and return to MSNBC. :-P
I think he’ll end up on a streaming platform, likely the Blaze or Daily Wire.

Tucker has a strong moral compass, but he is not overbearing.

I and many others are relieved to watch him because he is SANE and points out how hypocritical, outrageous, and destructive the left is.

Many nights he said things that could and ultimately did get him sideways with his soulless, woke, ignorant, and vain handlers at Fox.

I hope to see him soon wherever he surfaces, BUT I will miss him at Fox because he always had a crew who could endorse and expand upon his well-thought-out ideas.

He is secure in himself and his ideas, so watching him did not make one cringe or feel sorry for him, unlike so many on the tiny networks.

Lastly, I will miss the fact that Fox spent money on graphics, editing, research, fact-checking, archive searches, makeup, and clothing, plus sets, and razor blades for their on-screen people.

I really do not like the Wayne's World aspect of some of these smaller networks where the people show up unbathed and not shaven or made up or dressed well. Their monologues are like listening to a hung-over Rush at times.

For crying out loud people, get off your asses, drive to the studio, after taking a bath and shaving and dressing, and let them comb your hair and put on a touch of makeup.

Sheesh. Bannon is great but he looks like a smokehound who just climbed out of a dumpster.

Dan Bongino thinks Tucker could do very well financially with a podcast. I don’t know what to think of that.

Carlson would never take the offer. No way OAN could pay his exorbitant salary.

This came as a shock to many of his devoted fans in the populist movement.

That would be the 'populist community'... And yeah, I'll switch channels to watch Tucker. Joyfully and happily...
