I have only ever been back on FN one time since Tucker left. It’s a conscious deliberate boycot, and I do not forget or get lazy. I don’t even let myself accidentally pause on foxnews when changing channels.

From the article, this encapsulates what I liked about him when he was there;
“While most voices in the mainstream press stick to a surface-level analysis of current events, Carlson has taken things deeper,...”

Exactly right. Almost all of cable news is nothing but (political) current event commentary. They take whatever the ‘issue’ is and do punditry. It’s almost always political too, even though they call themselves “news” channels.

Carlson actually dug into topics and did stories and reporting.

I canceled Cable TV altogether two May’s ago.

Part of that was the whole issue with Fox News. The other was that my cable provider Xfinity/Comcast is NBC. I just did not want to support them any more than I absolutely have to.
I still use them for internet. It is my only option other than a satellite dish.

The third reason to cut cable was the fact that I was not watching anything on MSM anymore other than the occasional NFL game. Which most of them are now streaming.
