$30 million for Tucker is a bargain. He has 4 million eyeballs a night.

As for the settlement. That was $700 Mil. Their stock value plumeted more than a Billion $ so far after the Tucker announcement.

“You can’t hide the truth by selectively picking a few minutes out of tapes and saying this is what went on.”

Apparently the democrats are able to do that and get away with it.

And coward Republicans say nothing.

We either develop our own news networks or we end up in a concentration camp.

Your comment clearly shows you’re ignoring the important part: THEY SETTLED

You think it is perfectly reasonable that someone should "settle" a lawsuit in which they have done no wrong, and which one of the finest legal minds out there says they shouldn't have settled?

This thing just smells all rosey to you, doesn't it?

You are easily gas lighted.

Well the deep state now has what it wants, complete agreeing coverage across the spectrum. Aside from a one off here or there 4AM am radio prodcast from Reno, that will be it. The jerks complain about Carlson while we have a pissadent who has not had a press conference and a party that plans no debates. I’ve long said the country is lost, and this is just another step into the fog. From zenith to crash landing in what, 20 years. Study Mandarin.

Rupert is 93 years old highly doubtful that he is REALLY aware of what is TRULY going on in his company, the company HE BUILT then sent his kids and grandkids off to MARXIST universities so they could DESTROY everything he believed in!!

Tucker went after Pfizer Friday for the fraudulent COVID vaccines, fired Monday. Perhaps related.

Fox settled with Dominion last week. Perhaps related.

Two possible reasons yet another corporation bows to the woke mob and uses its power to censor free speech. Obamoism.

They settled. Their lawyers had all the info. Everything from discovery from Dominion. Everything they were going to turn over to Dominion as a result of subpoenas. Everything that hadn’t but might be subpoenaed. And they settled. They don’t believe they did nothing wrong, or at least that they could win the case.

I don’t care. TV “news” has been a garbage business for longer than I’ve been alive. It’s entertainment first, information only on accident.

If I was easily gaslit I’d pay attention to you. Cause that’s all you ever got. You’re wrong. Always.

Pray, indeed.

The last vestiges of a free press have now disappeared.

FOX is now pure junk. A bunch of chattering, nattering nincompoops.

Truth tellers like Carlson and Bongino will soon be cancelled everywhere.

Since Carlson proclaimed to be the enemy of “lying, pomposity, and group think”, what does that make Fox now?

Fox Corporation stock fell as much as 5% on Monday and erased $962 million in market value after it was announced that Fox News Media had parted ways with its host Tucker Carlson.

People on the ground and in the trenches say that is just plain BS and likely Russian disinformation.

“I knew when Carlson mentioned US Special forces already engaged on the ground in Ukraine, someone was in trouble. He’s the only one questioning the actions.”

Senator Rand Paul has been very outspoken questioning the Ukraine war as have Robert Kennedy Jr. and Russell Brand.
