The problem is he admitted in his revealed text messages that he hates Trump lol.
Completely unrelated, but people like you always remind me that this website has the best goddamn usernames on the internet.
Mr. Carlson is also facing a lawsuit from a former Fox News producer, Abby Grossberg, who claims that he presided over a misogynistic and discriminatory workplace culture. Ms. Grossberg said in the lawsuit, which was filed in March, that on her first day working for Mr. Carlson, she discovered the work space was decorated with large pictures of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi wearing a swimsuit.
Ms. Grossberg, who was fired after filing the lawsuit, also claimed that after she was coerced by Fox’s lawyers into providing a misleading deposition in the Dominion trial and defending an offensive text from Mr. Carlson, his producers emailed the rest of the staff in recognition of “Abby Day” and suggested ordering a staff lunch to celebrate.
No, I'm not either, I'm just adding info that wasn't in the posted articles. I think it's something more closely related to the Dominion lawsuit / payout.
There’s more shit in the domino files related to this there has to be. Something big is gonna drop.
large pictures of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi wearing a swimsuit
Of all the women in the world
Now he can go to OAN and totally drop whatever tatters were left of the mask.
Trump goes to jail and DeSantis is outed as a pedophile.
Tucker Carlson is the Republican presidential nominee.
Biden dies last minute. Kamala is Kamala.
John Stewart becomes the Democratic presidential nominee.
Monkey's paw curls.
That's actually easy to imagine if they can agree on a compensation package. He wants money and they want his viewers. Win-win!
I just saw your post in the Don Lemon thread. Take hold of The Lathe, Graphite22, chart a new destiny!
I'm gonna hit a few buttons until the machine starts working. Wish me luck!
Ack. That's a very scary thought.
"Now that I've left Fox News I can tell you what I really think. Today's show is on blood and soil..."
"For my first two guests on Der Tucker Hourengeistenübershowzen, I'd like to welcome my friends Richard Spencer and Vern Shilinger from Oz"
Tucker: "Guys - what do you say? Blood? Or soil? Which one is better?"
Richard Spencer: "Blood. Gotta be blood. Soil is good but it's gotta be blo—"
Vernon Schillinger: "Put a sock in it, fashy haircut. A real Aryan will speak. 'Blood or soil' is a complex and nuanced question. Tucker, do you truly expect me to answer that in a soundbite?"
Tucker: My guest, Vern Shillinger--
Shillinger: "It's Shillinger, asshole."
Was Tucker really not allowed to say certain things at Fox? He pretty much was doing the blood and soil thing already.
Remember when that LGBT nightclub got shot up and he was on talking about how "protecting children is a very noble desire". Absolutely sickening.
I wish I had any faith that this will actually hurt him and he won't just end up with a cushier deal at a worst network where he can say even more blatantly white nationalist things.
Is any other right-wing news network big enough to give him a more lucrative deal than what he had at Fox? I've seen numbers of $6-8 million/year as his salary, which seems like it might be out of the price range from OANN.
Good point, I have no idea how much money we're talking about here.
O'Reilly pretty much disappeared after he was let go from Fox, it might be different for Tucker but it's unlikely to go better for him.
O’Reilly had some blatant and credible SA cases come out they made him non grata
We'll see, but honestly I thought I was going to die with Tucker on air continuing to be the most dangerous fash propagandist in media
O'Reily did an internet show for a while which was hilariously pathetic. I guess he still owed people money.
There's something to be said about these massive fraud cases I guess as an effective way of deplatforming from main stream outlets.
This was nearly a billion dollars, and he's still facing another suit. It's made Jones basically blacklisted as well.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Tucker on Infowars after this
At the moment: I'd bet money on him running for office.
Trump/Carlson 2024?
It would be interesting to see since Carlson hates Trump. He pretends to love him on TV. It'd be interesting to see if he could do that in real life
There's no chud media that will be able to pay him more than fox lol
i mean, he's prolly just gonna go the way of Falafel O'Reilly, the last guy to have that spot.
This makes me happy. Not "John McCain is dead" happy, but happy nonetheless.
This might actually make his last episode something to watch. Hope he goes full scorched earth.
The fact that they didn't even let him do a final broadcast speaks VOLUMES. Dude was fired, straight up.
I saw someone on the TrueAnon sub say that apparently Fox had even been airing previews of some upcoming thing with him earlier today.
Yeah my first guess was the leaked convos where he just straight-up admitted they all lie
"Sorry Tucker. Your worth $35m, but not $787.5m"
(Not that Fox will actually pay anything remotely close to that settlement in reality)
I was under the impression that Carlson, being their most popular guy, would be worth keeping on. Interesting to see he's expendable.
They might've gotten mad that he defended the Uhuru movement/Black Hammers at all, never mind in bad faith.
Fox news being too reactionary to tolerate the red brown alliance is fucking hilarious so that's what I choose to believe
Definitely something like that. He's a major money-maker for them, and it only makes sense to drop him if they think he's a liability.
Kyle Kulinsky's video reaction had some interesting details. Basically, it appears that Tucker Carlson just had so many emails and texts where he's like "I don't believe a word of this, but that's what gets the ratings / that's what the piggies are clamoring for", which is a genuine liability legally.
A legal liability? He could get sued for lying about what his true beliefs are?
No. The case is about defamation - knowingly publishing falsehoods to damage another's reputation. Turns out it's a lot easier to make the case when one of the perpetrators is out there texting at length that he knew what he was publishing was false.

I've been saying for years he doesn't actually believe this stuff. Years ago that Roger Stone netflix biopic came out (Get Me Roger Stone! 2017) and they interview Tucker for it and it's pretty apparent he has a kind of mercenary attitude about all this, he's a TV personality first and foremost. The Ideology is just a part of the product.
i imagine he's a liability due to the dominion suit, but the pigs won't let us in on the trial deets. they're depriving us of content!!
I'm betting on him getting a new media job (new network/ going solo/ doing podcasts watever) and going 100x more mask off nazi than he already was.
Yeah, this has the deep state's hands all over it. Too much dissent. All we've got left is the internet, and that's fading fast. Sure, run your own site when Visa and Mastercard won't process payments for you.
the deep state took out my favorite nazi how will I watch glenn greenwald now ;_;
le epic da joooos dogwhistle, updoot!
i’m sure this is him getting his just desserts for being a queer exterminationist, right? right?
Waiting to see his "guest host" replacements: Stephen Crowder, Ben Shabibo, Candace Owens...
Crowder and Shapiro make fat stacks with wayyy less oversight right now. Maybe they'd make more in Tucker's position, but I can't imagine they'd give up their shows for it.
And Candace Owens is a black woman. They will never let her be the main act.
