He has what it takes. Am sure Putler would reward him handsomely.

I like Tucker. Not necessarily his style, but he's been a conservative thinker and pundit for a long time. Some of his thoughts have been insightful.

And not a damn one of you have had any impact on the national discourse as much as he has. Right now, you're just a bunch of crows balancing on a fence, cawing about the quality of the corn.

You didn't plow, plant, water or fertilize the corn. You don't even know how to harvest it, except to steal an occasional ear, but you can certainly bitch about the quality.

Caw! Caw!

[jon-nyc]

That was weak.

Interesting how the various news outlets are headlining this story.

Everything from "parting ways" to "fired" to "abrupt departure."

Gotta laugh.

Watch him declare for president tomorrow.... lol

Maybe not tomorrow, but I could see it.

I could imagine it, it's not like he needs any more money. His best best is be Trump's main champion (and perhaps VP?) to inherit his base in later years, rather than take him on now. He's young enough to wait 4 years.

You weren’t kidding:

Lots of theories about what happened.

1. His coverage of Ray Epps (right after 60 Minutes did a story)
2. Dominion liability (but others pushed it as well, and they're still there
3. Supposedly (?) he's not a Trump fanboi and was pushed to support him.

He’s not worth that much… I mean, he’s already got more than I ever will by many multiples, but it’s not FU money. Frankly, Gutfeld’s contract is worth 4 times his was…

Obviously, you've mistaken me for somebody that stays up at night chewing over your pithy statements.

Nah.

I gave you a piece of my opinion.

Enjoy!

Tucker was not named in the Dominion suit, IIRC.

You're right. None of the talking heads were. However, he was pointed to as one of the cheerleaders of the theory.

Shut the front door! Well, Whad’ya know, eh? I’d a never thunk that.

Fox Corporation erased $930 million in market value on Monday after announcing Tucker Carlson would depart Fox News.

The split came one week after the company settled a defamation lawsuit with Dominion Voting Systems.

Tucker Carlson has consistently had one of the most-watched news shows on cable TV.

Fox Corporation stock fell as much as 5% on Monday and erased $930 million in market value after it was announced that Fox News Media parted ways with host Tucker Carlson.

Shares of the media company recovered slightly and were trading at $29.61, down almost 4% at 12:15 p.m. ET.

Maybe they’ll replace him with Dylan Mulvaney.

[LuFins Dad]

More and more it’s sounding like this was about the Epps story.

LOL...
