I think this is part of the deal he made, for being able to broadcast again after his unseemly comments about a college girls basketball team. He’s gotta pay homage or lose his job. I think he rants because he might need the dough.
He got a FORTY MILLION DOLLAR pay out when he was removed from the air. His lawyer was intending a $120 million suite and he would have won. He doesn’t need the money.
