Tucker is gone from FOX
 
Didn't see it posted so if it is redundant apologies.

Speculation is all at this point.

Not sure Fox will survive this. I just canceled my subscription to FOX Nation.

Under reason just one word. Tucker

I do not think cleaning out their den of liars will help them at this point.

But who knows, I am often wrong :rolleyes:

ZeroJunk 04-24-2023 12:07 PM

Well like Tucker or hate him he had 3 1/2 million viewers. More than any other cable program including non news.

finnbow 04-24-2023 12:07 PM

Maybe they became uncomfortable with such a lying scumbag and apologist for a murderous war criminal.

donquixote99 04-24-2023 12:13 PM

I think his criticisms of management that became public were too much.

Nah, it's what they do. More likely because he cost them more $$$ than he was bringing in.

That explains a lot about your delusional take on things.

Here's Russia's premier propagandist, Vladimir Soloviev, after hearing the news about his comrade at Fox.

Tucker, come home to Mother Russia. We promise you no military service requirement.
Love, Vladimir

NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report)—Fox News has announced that it has replaced Tucker Carlson with a state-of-the-art lying Chatbot.

In a brief statement, Fox chairman Rupert Murdoch thanked Carlson for his service but said that he had been “rendered obsolete by swift advances in lying technology.”

A dry run of the Chatbot showed it emitting nine lies per minute, besting Carlson’s average of eight.

News of the Chatbot’s arrival sent shock waves down the corridors of Fox’s midtown Manhattan headquarters. “I’ll be next,” a reportedly shaken Sean Hannity said.

After losing $787 million it looks like Pox News is reading the signs right now. Americans are tired of all this nastiness primarily coming from the right side of the aisle. Just look at the OPs contributions here. His fealty to Tucker and the rest of his ilk has turned him into crass troll unworthy of engagement.

addendum - My apologies to the membership and anyone reading here from Audio Karma for engaging with such an obvious troll. I should know better.

Between his former producer suing him and Fox as well as the Ray Epps feature on 60 Minutes (in preparation for another lawsuit against Tucker and Fox), Murdoch may be starting to learn than shameless, hurtful lies are expensive.

According to NBC, Don Lemon's career is complete over, but they're curious regarding where Tucker will land.

Maybe NBC ?

Tucker Carlson, one of the most popular Fox News prime-time hosts, was worth more than $690 million to the parent company. At least that is what trading in the stock indicates.

Shares of Fox Corp. sank as much as 5.4% Monday, the most since October, after the company said Carlson had left with immediate effect.

...because a certain class of non-thinking persons is so eager to lap up every lie he tells them, and will follow him wherever his lying ass winds up...

Still have a couple Spaten Ocktoberfest in the fridge. Think I'll crack one in celebration. Tucks the KKKlown and Fox both taking a bath is a damned good reason.
Cheers!

The thing about Ray Epps is they have him on video doing exactly what he said he wasn't doing.

ZeroJunk 04-24-2023 04:02 PM

Bill O'Reilly who has done quite well since Fox said the era of cable news is over and individual websites with their own independence will replace them.

I'll go wherever Tucker goes.

I don't understand charisma, or how it can be transmitted with no direct contact.
Rush Limbaugh had it, O'Reilly had it, Tucker had it.

Reagan, Clinton, Obama if you consider political people.

Who else ? Fox certainly doesn't have anybody. CNN doesn't. MSNBC never has.

Really, out of everybody out there who would you make a point in your day because you are curious about what they think, not necessarily that you agree.

Nobody.

It was Tucker Carlson's epitaph at Fox News.
Inscription reads, "So many lies, so little time"
Rick Wilson anonymously added the words, "Good Riddance" to the farewell message

I suspect the FBI knows far more about Epps than you do.

What a moron.

Fucker Carlson's lie about him is one of the many reasons he was shitcanned, and Faux will be (again) sued for. You're a fool.

That brings new meaning to the term "He who laughs last laughs best".

You know the most delicious part of the whole affair is the Q-berts will come up with all sorts of "theories" of why Tuck got canned.

And you say that because Tucker told you so. The funny thing is that Fox fired him for exposing them to yet another defamation lawsuit by Epps, besides the handful they already face.

bobabode 04-24-2023 08:17 PM

I wonder if anyone can explain why conservatives' minds go into neutral when they are being spoonfed their daily dose bile and vitriol from cretins like Tucker?

It's like all critical functions and skepticism go right out the window.

Were they bottle fed from birth? Daddy was distant and aloof? Not that those handicaps can't be overcome with a bit of work.

I just don't get it.

Oh, Russian disinformation I guess.

People who cannot respond react and you are reacting by resorting to name calling. And guess why, you having nothing. Yet you keep claiming there is evidence, but where and it needs to be demonstrable.

This thread has hit the pits, typical since its about the Fucker.

On March 23rd of this year, Epps through his attorney demanded from Fox a retraction and an apology.
Quote:

In a letter to Carlson and Fox News general counsel Bernard Gugar, Michael Teter, a lawyer for Epps, said the Fox News host “persists with his assault on the truth” by pushing “fanciful notions” regarding Epps’ involvement in the Capitol attack that have “demonstrably (and already proven to be) false.”


“We expect that you will give the same airtime in retracting these falsehoods as you spent amplifying them,” Teter wrote. “Further, Mr. Carlson and Fox News must issue a formal on-air apology for the lies you have spread about Mr. Epps.”
With TC the Jerk out of the picture, will there a statement of retraction by Fox? Doubt it.
A bigger question, is Epps still a Trumper? Very much so is my guess.

Wingnut conspiracy theorists must be dumb as a door knob. Lets say that Epps is indeed a Federal agent of sorts, would he go public like this? that will bring even more scrutiny and attraction.

I think Epps is CIA. Heck yes he'd go public like this. TC does it every day, and even though he swears he didn't take a job with the CIA, I think he's lying about this. And he's not out of the picture yet.

They don't care who sues who. They like court room drama, publicity. How else are they going to sway public opinion ?
