BREAKING NEWS: Tucker Carlson leaves Fox News

Surprising but not surprising. Fox is soft on a lot of stuff going on. Pretty sure he'll land on his feet. And Fox is gonna catch hell for letting him go. They can't replace him with anyone nearly as good. Keep an eye on Hannity and Ingraham.

Press Release

FOX NEWS MEDIA AND TUCKER CARLSON PART WAYS
Published April 24, 2023


NEW YORK — April 24, 2023 — FOX News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways. We thank him for his service to the network as a host and prior to that as a contributor.

Mr. Carlson’s last program was Friday April 21st. Fox News Tonight will air live at 8 PM/ET starting this evening as an interim show helmed by rotating FOX News personalities until a new host is named.

FOX News Media operates the FOX News Channel (FNC), FOX Business Network (FBN), FOX News Digital, FOX News Audio, FOX News Books, the direct-to-consumer streaming services FOX Nation and FOX News International and the free ad-supported television service FOX Weather. Currently the number one network in all of cable, FNC has also been the most watched television news channel for more than 21 consecutive years, while FBN ranks among the top business channels on cable. Owned by Fox Corporation, FOX News Media reaches nearly 200 million people each month.

Welp...that's it then...it's over

The final nail in the "death of the USA coffin" has finally been hammered in

Good night.

It's obvious that he was fired....

The only voice on TV actually worth listening to unceremoniously fired one day after Sandy Cortez calls Tucker's show an incitement to violence. I guess we now know the standard.

Hannity is a shill, I'm sure he will stick around Fox for more hard hitting interviews with Lindsey.

Pretty sure he left because Fox was trying to censor his reporting. Especially Jan 6th

He may have also made a deal with someone else. He interviewed Elon Musk last week. There could be a big play to start another media company or buy an existing one. Some of the other Fox hosts who have left fell on their faces but doubt Tucker will. He is a legit star unlike the others.

I wonder if he had to sign a non-compete agreement.

Hope he goes to Newsmax, if they can afford him.

Someone brought up this OLD tweet. Hilarious how it relates to today's news even though it's from 2011

I love how CNN is reporting this:

Quote:
Fox News and Tucker Carlson, the right-wing extremist who hosted the network’s highly rated 8pm hour, have severed ties, the network said in a stunning announcement Monday.
Right-wing extremist.








If Tucker Carlson is a right-wing extremist...then I truly know this country is:

This is sickening news!🤬🤬🤬 They continue to shut down people who see exactly what is going wrong in this country. We are doomed!!! These media outlets Control the narrative and agenda!!! There is only one network still fighting the fight and that’s Newsmax. If they are smart they grab Tucker Carlson! My favorite on the network is Greg Kelly,the son of former police commissioner Ray Kelly.

Corporate Media is less and less relevant. There are other ways for him to make as much or more $$$ than he made with Fox

I knew Rupert Murdoch was out of his mind with his deposition testimony in the Dominion case...now it's confirmed

He just killed his entire news network.

Imagine the number of people who will never watch Fox News again after this.

Imagine.

Carlson was the ONLY reason I would EVER watch Fox News.

After Ray Epps' recent public relations tour on 60 minutes Sunday, where he blamed Tucker Carlson for ruining his life...maybe Fox preemptively fired Carlson for fear of another lawsuit...

Fox is toast. Bongino and Tucker were the only reasons to watch it but they will do just fine.

I'm hoping that Tucker will give radio a try. El Rushbo, after a TV stint, found out his true calling was radio. I personally think Carlson would be great on radio and he would be his own boss.
