You do realize that Tuck does interviews and symposiums, speeches, etc., that are not editorialized by Fox, right?
Yes, and if you listen to those he is usually not presenting anything new, only going over things from the show, and he repeatedly talks about how he and his editorial team vets and produces the content on his show to the point of annoyance. Considering how often it is brought up, it may as well be called the Fox News Editorial Team and Tucker Carlson Show
How do you know what "her job" entails? And you consider her post "wild facts"? A direct quote is now a "wild fact"?
Professional news organizations have a team of editors to vet and sanitize the content, to communicate in they way they want to communicate it. She clearly did not go through the proper channels there.
The CEO of of Fox News Suzanne Scott agreed that Heinrich was in the wrong.
https://news.yahoo.com/tucker-carlson-sean-hannity-discussed-020459584.htmlHannity responded saying he had already sent Heinrich's tweet to Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott with a "really?"
After receiving Hannity's message about Heinrich's tweet, Scott wrote in a message to Fox News President Jay Wallace and Fox News Senior Executive Vice President of Corporate Communications Irena Briganti: "Sean texted me — he's standing down on responding but not happy about this and doesn't understand how this is allowed to happen from anyone in news," according to the court filing.
"She has serious nerve doing this and if this gets picked up, viewers are going to be further disgusted," Scott wrote of Heinrich, according to the filing.
By the following morning, Heinrich had deleted her fact-checking tweet, the motion said.
The CEO did not approve of this way of reporting.
Who said she was acting as, and stating the official words of a network representative?
She's a Fox News reporter speaking to a politician on a public forum. It doesn't matter if she intended to do it privately or not. No one knows that she is off the clock. Her public actions affect the news organization.
Since the main concern from her action were "how this is allowed to happen from anyone in news" Fox appears more concerned than just the content. Fox has liberal shows in the mornings, and have liberal anchors that criticize Trump. The main concern is clearly that they don't want any reporter to go half cocked starting public twitter fights with politicians and government officials.
There is a process to generate statements and content on behalf of Fox News, and that wasn't it.
AND she wasn't fired.
AND you have no clue what Fox News policies are regarding employees personal twitter feeds, public appearances, interviews, speeches and such. You're literally making things up. You are the one with the wild facts.
She didn't need to get fired, she could have gotten reprimanded. You have completely failed to demonstrate that Fox News does not use editorial teams for their shows. They absolutely do. There is a Chief Editor who is responsible for the editorial teams.
Tucker is a traitor to his country
I just can't believe that people don't see through his schtick. He's been doing the same song & dance since the crossfire days.
If you don't like it, don't watch it. No need to publicly cry to us about how you don't like something on tv.
