Brian Kilmeade, co-host of “Fox & Friends,” addressed the network’s firing of Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Monday night as he hosted Carlson’s former show during the 8 p.m. EST hour.

“As you probably have heard, Fox News and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways,” Kilmeade said. “I wish Tucker the best. I’m great friends with Tucker and always will be. But right now, it’s time for ‘Fox News Tonight,’ so let’s get started.”

“I have considered Brian to be a RINO.”
He used to be my fav anchor, until he suggested on his show that Trump should concede to Biden’s ‘win’. After that, never watched him.

Brian was doing a show last week and Kellyanne Conway was a guest. During a conversation about Trump vs DeSantis, Brian throws this little nugget in, he was malicious and blatantly lied saying “Donald Trump has a RAPE trial next week”. Kellyanne said, it isn’t a rape trial, but because Brian quickly pivoted and talked over her, she could barely be heard. He intentionally manipulated his lie.

Brian is a FOX shill.

The most annoying host and the one most hated by his co-workers.

Sounds like the Murdochs want to sell FNC and cash out. Tucker was a lightning rod and complicated that.

When he’s not making fun of Jesse, Tyrus, Kat, Dana, or any of his other co-workers.

Sorry, I don’t agree that we don’t even get a ‘crumb’ of real information there. It’s not that simple.

Everybody has a boss; people in the Fox situation have to make choices over whether to stay and do what good they can under the present strictures, or just leave. People often make legitimate choices both ways.

Fox Snooze is the controlled opposition. Tucker Carlson had become the uncontrolled opposition so he had to go. Simple as that. He knows what’s really going on and had started revealing it. He had to go.

I think your post pretty well is the gist of it. Simplified and true.

Only person at Fox close to Tucker in ability is Will Cane. I do find his talent worth listening g too.

The same guy Gutfeld is constantly making fun of?

Gutfeld and guests make fun of everyone, including themselves in their cross banter. That's why the show is so funny and number 1 in late night. Unlike Colbert, Fallon, Kimmel, etc., they don't preach to their audience while still having fun with the issues of the day.

Sometimes Gutfeld's jokes go flat, but he then laughs at himself as do his guests and live audience. He has very informed guests who often ad-lib with their own off the wall comments. My favorites are Tyrus and Joe Mackie. BTW, he's had Kilmeade on as a guest he was a good sport about all the ribbing he gets. Try watching it...it makes the issues of the day less heavy on the heart.

Oops sorry, you wouldn’t know about the Gutfeld ribbing of Kilmeade unless you’ve watched it. My bad.

Most people are willing to play ball, to go along to get along.

Not saying that’s right, just sayin’.

Brian reads that prompter like a pro, and hey, he did punch out Al Franken that time. :)

'...it makes the issues of the day less heavy on the heart.'

That's one of the reasons I like Gutfeld's shows. And 'The Five' has some very thoughtful commentary from very intelligent people. Even people like Tyrus, who aren't professional news journalists/commentators, have a way of cutting straight to the truth.

Yes he does! Who would have thought that such a huge intimidating wrestler could be so astute? Tyrus has such a great traditional conservative outlook and can be funny in his remarks. Gutfeld has so many smart, informed, witty guests and they all have fun with each other while making light of downer issues.

Kilmeade kept glancing his eyes over to someone off the edge of the set. I’m betting this was a exec who was keeping track of his presentation.
