Get the Tuck Out Of Here!
Well, it finally happen.
I can’t begin to count how many stories I posted on FTVLive that questioned how, or why Tucker Carlson still had a job at Fox News.
Carlson used his hosting time on Fox News to spew hate against just about anyone that was not a white male.
Yet, Fox News continued to employ Carlson.
The guy praised Vladimir Putin, yet there he was each night on Fox News spouting more bullshit.
Carlson even told us that the people that laid siege on our U.S. Capitol were basically just tourists enjoying the sights.
Did Fox News do anything about that?
But, yesterday in the wake of Fox News losing 3/4 of a billion dollars to Dominion Voting Systems, Fox News cut ties with Tucker Carlson.
The network issued a brief one-liner, which read like the other one-liners when they exit someone from the network.
“FOX News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways. We thank him for his service to the network as a host and before that as a contributor,” the network said in a statement.
Hate doesn’t get you sacked; turning insurrectionists into tourists is also fine. But screw with the bottom line, and now you’re gone.
I have to wonder if Maria Bartiromo won’t be far behind.
Also, how long before Carlson pops up on NewsMax, or dare I say it, News Nation?
Fox News still has a huge lawsuit hanging over its head with Smartmatic. I would bet that this one will also be settled, and it will be another blockbuster amount.
Ditching Carlson was the right move, but maybe if Fox had listened to FTVLive, they would have done it much sooner.
It should also be mentioned that Carlson’s Executive Producer Justin Wells has also exited the network.
