Fox News “is dead,” and Tucker Carlson already has his first job offer. It came within hours of the shocking announcement that he and Rupert Murdoch’s Fox Corporation were “parting ways.” Who took the biggest hit? It looks like Fox News has.
Though PJ Media suspected Carlson was in some hot water with the corporate suits and the board at Fox News over his January 6 coverage, which ended almost as soon as it started, the news that he was leaving hit with the force of an asteroid in cable news circles.
I think that J-6 stuff did him in. You? #TuckerCarlson was the reason to watch #FoxNews pic.twitter.com/GzzwgZ4GZG

No one in the digital information space thinks that Carlson will have any problem starting his own brand on any number of platforms, from Rumble to SiriusXM. Fox News, however, took an immediate hit on Wall Street.
Hilarious but true: @TuckerCarlson leaving hit Fox stock harder than the Dominion suit ever did.
Look, if Steven Crowder can be offered $50 million for four years and want $120, what is Tucker worth? Here’s a hint: it starts with a B

And Fox News took a hit in the court of public opinion with the investor class as well.
Fox News has fallen.

Carlson is expected to land on his feet. Former Fox News talent Megyn Kelly told her podcast audience on Monday that Carlson could look forward to “blue, blue skies ahead,” adding, “He’s got a bright future.

They just report on the politics that is the result of Deep State manipulation. Tucker reports on Deep State manipulation. Big difference. He did too much of that, and was making way too many people aware of it.
.

Tucker went up against the laws of nature
there are always serious consequences
when you do that
he ordered a sausage and pineapple pizza
you dont come back from that
that is a career ender
Bttt.

Rogan is making $200,000,000 with his Spotify podcast. TC could easily match that; better than $50,000,000 from FNC.
Agree! Now!!!
I watch NEWSMAX most of the day on DISH.
Quote: “He just signed a contract in 21 and it wasn’t up until 26”
I am sure that he did. It is analogous to the professional athlete who signs as contract. Later, his performance goes through the roof and/or other players are getting more and he asks to renegotiate. It is always contentious and never goes well.
Tucker could (I say could because I have no idea) have looked around and seen what streamers were making. He could have pointed out the FoxNation was not in his original contract, etc. And he made noises about asking for more moola.
used to get paid by the word
now paid by the click?
>I watched Hannity last night. Not a peep about Tucker. Same with Laura. They obviously want to keep their jobs, go with the status quo.
More likely they just don’t have any jobs offers yet, or they’re just too stupid. Maybe both
What a great idea!
By Jove, I think you’ve got it!
I read Fox was paying him out for his contract. Not sure he is going to show up anywhere, any time soon.
A 3% drop is not a big deal these days.
That was intended to get you to click. It’s their job, not Tucker’s.
I wonder about Baritiromo and Campos-DUFFY; they both called Biden a traitor!
None compete clauses are only IF you quit.
Tucker was supposedly fired.
Elon IS THE ONLY one who has the deep pockets and reach for Tucker, he is also THE ONLY ONE with enough money to not give a shit about the blowback!! Elon will make Tucker SOAR, in return Tucker will make Elon’s investment SOAR!! Tucker NEEDS to tell Fox take the contract buyout and stick it where the sun don’t shine!!! They want to SILENCE HIM until after the election Tucker KNOWS this he needs to give them the middle finger!! Elon ALSO HAS the SUPER attorneys to surround Tucker!! We will see how serious Elon is about free speech!!
If he was fired it is hard to say he cannot work.
I heard the audio. Ham and pineapple is understandable in theory, though vile in practice. Sausage and pineapple is an atrocity on a par with running 100baby ducks and chicks through a food processor, one at a time
