Because that worked out so well for Alex Jones?

+1 See also Bill O’Reilly.

I just hope this doesn’t mean he’s running for president.


Oh god.

And you all are fooling yourselves if you think this some how makes him EVEN STRONGER. It doesn't. It makes him weaker. Sure, he'll go somewhere else - but he's the guy who got fired from Fox for [reasons].


Most likely. In the Fox model the hosts are interchangeable. So if one gets too expensive or think they are bigger vs Fox, Fox moves. Watch Maria Bartiromo next.

The big question is if Robert Murdoch goes. It is possible. He is old. Most likely he was allowed to mess around with Fox News to keep him out of the larger business. Now he really f’ed that up and the are a lot of other lawsuits settlements coming because of his “leadership” at Fox.

Lachlan Murdoch is running the show now.


It is amazing how these big “new” or should we call them political influencer networks are control by a few people/families.

Nah, he's too lazy. Maybe he'll be another bloated hack parroting talking points on some Daily Wire streaming show that'll have maybe 5,000 viewers but be astroturfed by their algorithms.

But it was Carlson’s comments about Fox management, as revealed in the Dominion case, that played a role in his departure from Fox, a person familiar with the company’s thinking told The Post.

Does anyone know what he said about FNC management?

Listen to his Heritage Gala speech he gave this weekend at National Harbor. He is running.

I don't know. Tucker might be a decent President. He's no psycho despite his entertainment persona.

Serious question - how does Tucker get the boot and Hannity stays??? He’s much more dangerous and vile in my opinion.

He has been shown publicly to have zero integrity.

That's not presidential.

I think Tucker might actually be more divisive than Trump. Heck no.

No. You should have learned from Trump. He's a inveterate liar. We do not want liars in the White House.

He's a liar who does seem to embrace white nationalism. That at least borders on psycho.
What experience does he have that would make him a "decent" president?

When I was younger, I remember being told : 'When you work for a company, they can forgive a lot of things except for you doing something that cost them money '. The swollen face fratbro forgot that he was nothing more than a mere social security number . He cost them a lot of advertisers a.k.a revenues in the last couple of years.

The $800 million settlement faux news has to fork is going to have consequences moving forward. Dominion has provided the blueprint. If faux news keeps deliberately misrepresenting the facts as it has done since it installed itself in America like a chemo-resistant cancer , then the defamation lawsuits will follow . No matter how cash rich a corporation is, you can only shell out hundreds of millions in settlements but for so long .

I'm happy, but I don't trust this move. You can't get rid of a malevolent being like *ucker Carlson or Trump that easily.

That would be interesting. He doesn’t have a college education and will fight Trump and Death Santos for the MAGA vote. And there are texts of him saying he hates Trump. So, he would be running a distant third for the MAGA vote.

So Fox is OK with liars and is willing to employ liars. But the line is not dissing your boss!!!
