Fox News had to fire one of their most popular hosts because his lies on air about the election cost then nearly $800m.

Tucker has also been exposed for saying that he hates Trump.

Yet these dumb fuks will continue to watch him lie to their face night after night on whatever new platform Tucker joins

Lmao just lmao

You got a legit link to that $35m per year that isn't a celebrity net worth type of site?

Total speculation on my part. IMO if Fox thought they wouldn't suffer further damage (monetary or otherwise) by keeping Tucker they'd have kept him. They wouldn't kill their golden goose for no good reason.

My theories (which may be completely wrong) include
- insurers threaten to drop coverage if Fox keep Tucker on the air
- Tucker may have been going to say something they don't want him to
- minimizing potential damage in the upcoming legal issues with Smartmatic

I'm sure Fox knew there'd be short term fallout from this and chose to go ahead anyway

Not sure either way but certainly not in the short term. Do you think Fox did this just to spite themselves?

The left has been relentless going after Tucker, especially the past year, and this meant Fox got attacked by association. By getting rid of Tucker, Fox alleviated some of the pressure they were facing. Pretty cuck move by Fox, but I am also not surprised considering they have been controlled opposition for awhile.
I remember some scumbag going after Tucker when he walked in with his daughter while on vacation going for fishing bait. Liberals are scum

Dudes like "my daughters here cmon", guy kept filming him

It will hit their bottom line in the short term (at least), agreed. Maybe they felt keeping him would hurt them more? Who knows at this point (outside of Fox themselves)?

Funny, I heard the same thing when O'Reilly got the axe.

And don't worry, they'll replace Tucker with another lying POS. They just don't know who yet.

I daytrade for a living so I can chime in.


FOX is a media company and media companies tend to have very low variance stock prices. In other words it isn't like a Tesla or a high tech stock that can move up and down massive % points in a few weeks or even a few days. Media companies normally have very predictable revs and earnings and so their stock price tends to stay in a very narrow range. For example FOX stock has only varied between $27 a share to $33 a share in the past year.

It dropped to $28 today but that is right in its narrow trading range and was only a $2 drop. Stocks like that really are not worth investing in long term and they sure are not worth day trading on a regular basis.

I not longer vote but if he ran for office I might vote for him.

Fox is INSANE.
Wasn't the whole issue with the dominion lawsuit was Tucker specifically was caught with leaked texts voicing how much he hates Trump and saying how election was rigged stuff was BS, but then saying the exact opposite on his show?

I think his "honest-ness" is quite literally acting. But that's just par for the course of all media, CNN and the likes aren't any better.

My theory is that they are facing yet another law suit, this time by Tucker's producer claiming he is sexist and abusive and created a toxic work environment.

Developing story which may or may not have merit:

https://www.latimes.com/entertainmen...source=newslit
A Fox News representative had no other details on Carlson’s exit. People familiar with the situation who were not authorized to comment publicly said the decision to fire Carlson came straight from Fox Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch.

Carlson’s exit is related to the discrimination lawsuit filed by Abby Grossberg, the producer fired by the network last month, the people said. Carlson’s senior executive producer Justin Wells has also been terminated, according to people familiar with the matter. A Fox News representative would not comment.

Murdoch is also said to be concerned over Carlson’s coverage of the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, in which the host has promoted the conspiracy theory that it was provoked by government agents.


Carlson has called Ray Epps — a Texas man who participated in the storming of the Capitol but did not enter the building — an FBI plant,without presenting any evidence.

Epps was interviewed Sunday on “60 Minutes” and said he has been subjected to death threats as a result of Carlson’s statements about him. The FBI told “60 Minutes” that Epps has never worked for the agency.

The decision is not related to the $787.5-million settlement Fox News agreed to pay to Dominion Voting Systems last week, according to a representative for Dominion.

However, some of the comments that Carlson had made about management in communications that turned up in the discovery process for the case may have also played a role in Carlson’s demise.

Dominion accused Fox of knowingly making false claims related to the 2020 election.

Grossberg was moved off of “Sunday Morning Futures With Maria Bartiromo” and onto “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” where she said was bullied and subjected to antisemitic comments. She filed a lawsuit in New York.

Carlson was by far the most popular individual host on Fox News, averaging more than 3 million viewers a night.

But he also brought controversy to the network on a regular basis with his provocative views on immigration and race,which alienated advertisers.

Starting Monday, Carlson’s 8 p.m. Eastern time slot will be filled by rotating Fox News personalities until a new host is named, the company said.

This is a developing story.
