Tucker/Fox battle heating up

Fox News sends cease and desist letter to Carlson over Twitter show

https://thehill.com/homenews/media/4...desist-letter/
Fox News has sent a cease and desist letter to former host Tucker Carlson after the conservative pundit published the first two episodes of his new Twitter show.

The letter, which was reported by Axios, comes has Carlson remains locked in a contract dispute with the cable giant after his ouster last month.

Carlson was taken off the air just days after the network agreed to pay Dominion Voting Systems $787 million to settle a blockbuster defamation suit stemming from its coverage of the 2020 election and former President Trump’s false claims of voter fraud. Neither the network nor the pundit has publicly commented on what led to his show being canceled.
Gonna be interesting to see how this unfolds

Only because fox only gets what, 5 million viewers, while Tucker's brand new show gets 30+ million viewers?


Fox is nothing but deep state propaganda with a slight flavor of the right...

Tucker’s lawyers -literally- defended him as saying nobody should take him seriously.

And? Lawyers lawyer. Maddow's lawyers did much the same - although with her the statement was "they are *literally* on Russia's payroll!" and her lawyers argued it was opinion.

This defense, it's the first and most broad thing, which if (and in this case when) successful, ends whatever lawsuit (frivolous or not) right then and there.

I've watched both of Tucker's twitter feed/shows, what in them are you writing off? Or, from here on to the end of time, is everything Tucker says automatically discredited and not to be addressed? Meanwhile, name me a source of information that is some paragon of truth and virtue to be taken seriously... or do we just only selectively decide who to write off from the getgo based on their message?
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Maddow is Tucker of the left. Congratulations. Lawyer’s can lawyer if you want - but a Federal fcking judge agreed with them.

The "'general tenor' of the show should then inform a viewer that [Carlson] is not 'stating actual facts' about the topics he discusses and is instead engaging in 'exaggeration' and 'non-literal commentary.'”

And btw, it’s against the rules of professional ethics to make arguments you don’t believe to be creditable.

That first line where I state my personal view is the only part you respond to huh?

Not the actual facts that a Federal Judge ruled that Tucker makes it up?

That’s a surprise.

Sorry, I don't pay much attention to the unhinged ramblings of retarded leftists.



And LOL at you thinking judges nowadays are unbiased and fair, or follow anything but leftist dogma...

Absolutely correct, and repped. However, the bottom is true too.

Do you know how the art of law works?

Know a girl who got out of having to pay child support by bombing an IQ test to show they are too stupid to be able to make enough to pay child support. He had made false aligations to get her kids taken away. She was evaluated and just didn't care so the test showed her IQ something in the 70's. He used this test against her to gain full custody. Other side demanded she take another test that had better certification but her side demanded he pay for it. So a guy who was in bad poverty that was taking her to court to get a 20K in back child support walked away with a bill instead of a check.

ok. then i don't believe he is breaching any contract unless his contract says he is not allowed to talk about the news at all.
he isn't working for a competing news network.
he is posting video's on twitter.
he is a vlogger at this point.

All that.

Twitter is not a TV network. Musk has stated that he has no contract w/Carlson and that Carlson is not getting paid.

Cucker is a bitch but FOX chose to release him. They should have no say whether he pursues new opportunities. If they are still paying him because of contractual obligation, Cucker should be able to nullify it or come to a settlement.

Dude is getting $20 million a year for his contract that expires in 2025. He signed the contract that stated he is "prohibited from rendering services of any type whatsoever, whether over the internet via streaming or similar distribution, or other digital distribution whether now known or hereafter devised" while under contract.

Either he needs to take the $60 million and keep his yap shut, or hope they're willing to release him from his contract.

One does not need monetary compensation in order to be considered providing a service.

Stick to things you know about, like conspiracy theories and chit like that, son.
