The demise of Tucker Carlson and Fox

I assume he'll be taking Rachel Maddow's place on MSNBC.

Reckon he will be off to Russia. They fucking love him there.  At least Putin's propagandists do anyway.

Some guy called Don Limone seems to have been fired as well.  Though I don't know who he is, so don't care.

I have tried calling and texting Tucker Carlson for comment on his stunning departure from Fox. No response yet.

Brian really wants to hang with the Tuck.

I actually found him on our work slack when I started. Never messaged him because I'd probably say something that would get me an hr meeting

Pics or it didn't happen. Looks like he's already been locked out of everything.

Some ass from CNN, as I understand.

lime never incited people to be derranged and shout at kids wearing masks or shoot people who knock on your door or hired white supremacists.
he passively made fun of women and touted big corp propaganda.


BUT
tuckerC?
fuck that guy
i hope he becomes a pariah and goes to work for bill orielly's podcast

or maybe we'll see him on cuomos podcast
or all 4of'em.



either way
do you think after the twitter files hearing we'll see a fox files hearing?

Tucker hates conservatives more than anyone.  I think he might try out to host the Daily Show.

Don Lime was visibly stupid.  His transgression was resorting to misogynistic attacks on Nikki Haley.

Well I suppose Ron Citrus has that going for him.  You could say it is damning with feint praise however.

But it did happen

Thaks for coming out

Your video doesn't show that he shouts at kids wearing masks, though. Of course he is a sensationalist, but he was right about kids wearing masks outdoors.

The Lincoln Project bids a fond farewell to Tucker:

Now I want to see Maddow, doing a send up of Tucker, saying things like, 

Was Tucker outed as a Russian spy?  Did the powerful M&M marketting lobby have a hand in his downfall?

I'm just asking the questions, but these are questions that we all want answers to!....

Here's an idea, why don't Tucker and L.emon swap networks?

Let's not forget that this is something to celebrate, although it's not as sweet without Tom and D1, I have blown up a balloon.

But bottom line, he wouldn't have been a thing if there wasn't people watching him, they are still there.

Hahaha
If only he had a team of writers to investigate things and bring back some sort report

Sort of like an investigator reporter typa thing....

People did take masks to the extreme and illogical ends.
But so did other people in the other direction.
Err on the side of caution.
And only one direction caused more covid....
Once agaim both sidesing dems vs repubs doesnt really work mathwise to be 'equal'.


He said call it out as child abuae.
The crazies did and brought body armour to school boards
Shouted at doctors.
Said "ima bring every gun i own".
"Rowdy parents" according to cruz.


Just like mattwalsh didnt SAY bomb threaten a boston hostpial.
He just said its the worst needs to be stopped theyre demons evil blahblahblah.
Then the craziss bomb threaten a hospital.

correlation isnt causation.
But causation is causation when you show theres a cause.

Tucker is probably going to be quickly picked up by Newsmax or another network similar.  I've been hearing a lot of talk since 2020 from conservatives of jumping off Fox and going to Newsmax since Fox called Arizona for Biden before any other network.  If Tucker went there, he would usher in the complete collapse of Fox News.  I heard a friend's mom lament yesterday that Tucker was let go for telling the uncomfortable truth and that he is now free to speak the whole truth.  Something needs to change about how the news is delivered and consumed if Tucker is being seen as a truth speaker.

I think a lot of people see the pundits as speakers of truth, on the right and the left. Opinion and news have blended to the point it is difficult to pick them apart.

with available online platforming he can reap all his own without paying 'tax' to murdoch.
he can join his mentor oreilly
get picked up by dailywire
do his own thing


TYT thinks he's going to run for POTUS

I think a lot of people see the pundits as speakers of truth, on the right and the left. Opinion and news have blended to the point it is difficult to pick them apart.

except he's an admitted liar...

I've heard this idea of Tucker running for president come up before. I don't think his visibility would help him as much as people think it would. There's been a few of these pundit types that have ran for public office, specifically Sargon of Akkad and Cenk Uger iuger weeger the Young Turks guy. They seem to lose by more than what you'd think they would.

I think the problem might be that pundits criticize, they just point out things that are wrong. Very little of their energy is put into proposing solutions. A politician that only knows how to point out how their administration is fucking up isn't very useful.

no i don't believe tucker wants to be in charge like that.
it's more long term profitable to be the voice that advises the POTUS than to be the POTUS himself (or however the saying goes)
it's a game to him.



progressives dont' really make their way through because the major party gate keepers box them out.
also, people are dumb.
dunno how bernie did it.
sounds like it took a lot of grassroots for the AOC and porter and some other lower profile people to make their ways in despite attempts by upper brass to primary them.
there are some examples of being primaried.


but pundits do propose things.
maybe you only watch outrage nonsense pundits?
the outcome of their proposals remains to be seen because requires implementation.

tucker won't ever run lmao, that is an actual job with real demands

hopefully matt walsh replaces him on fox news

haha ya
when trump won and he's all "oh shit, alright guess we're doing this now."
hahah




wait
why "hopefully"?
mattwalsh is so garbage
fox news needs to be replaced with nothing.
fox news needs to be ground into the dirt, run through the city naked tarred and feathered.

Only in his internal messages which the court had access to and released.  I don’t think he’s publicly admitted to lying?

I wonder if that was part of the settlement? Either apologize on his show for spreading complete bullshit or get the boot.

I don't know, I only watch the occasional Tucker Carlson clip on youtube. You'll have to ask kabool for the receipts.
