Tucker Carlson slammed Anthony Fauci as a "total fraud" after the top infectious disease expert's Friday testimony on Capitol Hill, with the Fox News host asserting that Fauci "won't opine on as long as it doesn't offend the popular and fashionable left."
During a segment on his prime-time show Friday night, Carlson played a heated exchange between Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Fauci on Capitol Hill earlier in the day, with the two figures sparring over the possible spread of COVID-19 at mass protests.
Fauci, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, noted there is risk when crowds of people gather, prompting Jordan to press for a direct answer on protests specifically.

.....Ratings cure a host of evils and in his case will likely protect him Yeah -- tell that to Bill O'Reilly. His ratings were massive --- he's gone.
To: LibertarianLiz
First, Carlson’s rating are consistently better than Bill O’Reilly’s, second, O’Reilly was a documented perv and deserved what he got.

I cannot see all this as practicality trumping political biases. It looks the other way around to me.
The FACT is that, all sports leagues and sports teams that go along with the nuttiness of BLM, and Kneepernick, are and will be paying the price with lower revenues.
If a company or sports team alienates a good portion of their users or fans, those users or fans will find other things to do or other companies to purchase from. They don't have anything that people can't do without or that there aren't alternatives for.
So, with losses of revenues and of fans/customers, my statement still stands, that, practicality trumps political biases/preferences.

So it doesn't necessarily follow that Fox will continue the US money making model.
FOX makes most of it's money from US customers, so, I don't see the China connection in their business model.

Tucker Carlson is one of the few news reporters to speak the truth regardless of the bricksbats he will receive. Me thinks The Little Napoleon has been too long on the stage, enjoying his "importance"...me also thinks he has too many fingers in too many Big Pharma & political $$$$$ pies.......
He is not smart enough to realize what his misguided pronouncements have cost this country.

How do we show support for Tucker to the network??I turn the TV on at 8pm M-F and leave it on for the entire hour. Then turn it off. I hope my set top box records that as a Tucker watcher.
I wish that Goya would sponsor him. That would be a twofer 👍🇺🇸

Glenn Beck wasn’t fired. He left FOX to move to Texas and open his own studio and start the Blaze.

I think Faucis first impressions were pretty much spot on. Then the Deep State realized they could make political hay with it and he fell into line..

He and the rest who saw a chance, managed to shut everything in this nation down.. stopped the successful economy..jobs.. and turned it into a ghost nation.. we still have to mask, stand 6 feet apart and businesses half open or closed.
they said all deaths were counted as virus deaths.. now why did they do that.
we are all tired of it.. and maybe it was all for nothing!
To: RandFan
I’d also call Fauci a perfect fool but no one is perfect.

I had heard that, it's amazing how the delusion just seems so strong.
Why are people not demanding answers? Instead, they just fall in line.
Did this happen because Trump is a known germaphobe?
Did he fall for a deep state plot,, knowingly or not?
Is he just letting the swamp play their hand?
Lots of questions.

James Murdoch left over editorial policy at WSJ. he is not on the Fox News board.
however, here’s a bit of fun about James:
Wikipedia: James Murdoch
In February 2009, Murdoch was appointed a non-executive director with the British pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline...
Murdoch married Kathryn Hufschmid Murdoch in 2000 and has three children, Anneka (born 2003), Walter (born 2004), and Emerson (born 2008). Kathryn works for the Clinton Climate Initiative, a charitable foundation set up by the former U.S. President, Bill Clinton in 2006. In 2013, the couple launched Quadrivium Foundation. Murdoch also donated money to the Clinton Foundation, the nonprofit organization run by Chelsea, Bill and Hillary Clinton...
In 2020, Murdoch and his wife each donated US$615,000 to the Biden campaign.
