Say bye bye to Tucker Carlson

Tucker will be fine. It's not like he won't just start his own media company, like how Ben Shapiro has the Daily Wire and Glenn Beck has the Blaze. Fox is going to suffer here as he was their biggest star, and his show had the highest ratings of any of the cable news shows IIRC. I'm too busy laughing about Dumb Lemon getting fired at CNN, anyway. :D
Maybe they can have their own silly "news" show. Dumb and Cucker. Has a ring to it.

Depends. How well he does depends on his demographic, imo. Ben shapiro appeals to millennials and gen z, and glenn beck appeals to gen x and millennials. 59% of people who watch fox are over the age of 50, so he may face a similar fate as bill oreilly if he can't adapt. He's younger though, so he may be able to rebound

Winner frube. I would only add a variety of , er, Anglo-Saxon synonyms to your list;)
Thanks!

I'm getting my popcorn ready for Jordan Klepper's eventual follow-up riff on the Fox situation. Here was Klepper's bit a few days ago on the Fox News-Dominion Fallout:


Bonus segment for you, @Revoltingest, featuring Roy Wood Jr. on the racist, murder-conspiring, Oklahoma cops.

Wonder whether Fox's decision was on account of their boy costing them some money?
That, the impending $2.7 billion Smatmatic lawsuit, the Abby Grossberg suit, and no doubt others. Tucker is increasingly proving himself to be a detestable liability.

I have much less animus when it comes to CNN's Don Lemon. Still, as someone who grew up in the Walter Cronkite era, I typically found his efforts to impersonate a journalist less that compelling.

Holy moly! Tucker Carlson is canned. We don't know why yet.

"
Indeed, by some accounts, as recently as this morning, the network was still promoting Carlson's program and an interview he was scheduled to air this evening. On Friday night, which we now know was his final Fox broadcast, the far-right host told his audience, "We'll be back on Monday."

Evidently not."

Well the rumors are either he is going fishing or running for president in 2024 and about everything in between.

"News of Carlson's departure from Fox News comes days after the network reached a $787.5 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems. The voting technology company filed a lawsuit against the cable news giant in March 2021, accusing it of knowingly airing false statements claiming Dominion helped to rig the 2020 presidential election against former President Donald Trump."

Get on yer horse and ride, Tucker. :horseracing:
Adios. Hasta la Vista. Despedida. Te veo despues. Adeus. Au Revoir. Ciao. La revedere. Arrivederci. Auf Wiedersehen. Tot ziens. Hejdå. Farvel. Ha det bra. Totsiens. Do svidaniya. Żegnaj. Doviđenja. Sbohem. Nasvidenje. Sayōnara. Zài jiàn. Bāaibaai. Annyeong. Alvida. Guru rakha. Subha yatra. Bidāẏa. Mama yanawā. L'hitraot. Paalam na. Aloha.

Buh Bye.
Now and in the future. His messages that were to other workers at FOX showed that he and others knew that they were pushing massive lies when it came to the last election. The current lawsuits are just the fruits of FOX'S business model, but they had to find someone to blame.
