Tucker out at FoxNews
-
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.

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

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

Edit: never mind. I did my own googling.

You gotta feel sorry for Fox execs. 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.

Well, Bongino made money today.

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.
Poor Tucker Carlson, deciding to lie like that?

"Here, have a shit-ton of money. Now, lie like a bastard and pull stupid faces. If you can develop a disturbing squeaky laugh and dress up like a twat, there's another million in it for you!"

Oh, I think Tucker will do quite well.
POTUS, maybe?

….and he really wanted to be a journalist when he grew up. Sad.

He could be Trump's second-term Monica Lewinsky!
After all, he's probably had worse things in his mouth.

This is the Tucker Carlson thread. If you want to talk about things that "News" hosts have had in their mouths, please take your comment to the thread where it belongs.
The Don Lemon thread.
Thank you.
