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

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.

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…

That was weak.
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.

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.

I think a lot of people would like to know about the Epps story.

If maintaining their audience requires validating maga feels, but validating maga feels requires making up defamatory bullshit, but making up defamatory bullshit costs you hundreds of millions of dollars, then they’re in a bit of a bind.

Overall I liked Tucker. He got better every year. I fear he’s yet another body in Trump’s wake for regurgitating election fraud conspiracies, to which it sounds like he didn’t even really believe.

There’s your journalism problem in a nutshell. Newscasters and pundits saying things even they don’t believe.
