That replacement is just as bad. :skull:

There was no immediate explanation from Fox about why Carlson was leaving. A text message to Carlson seeking comment was not immediately returned.

My guess is Tucker wasn't enough of a corporate bootlicker for Faux new's standards.

lol no.

murdoch makes decisions based on MONEY. tucker helped cost him $787,500,000.00 + there are other pending lawsuits + things he said, in writing, were further liabilities that could end up costing him even more MONEY. tucker's gone because he was no longer good for business & the bottom line. That's it.

Even my dirty, stinking, obscenely fair-minded biased, right-wing source mentioned Carlson was out of line.
The term "Too big for his boots" comes to mind.

Not only that, he was a loose cannon and thought he was too big for his sneakers, apparently.
There is rarely one reason why things are done.

I believe he is owed 20m by Murdoch for the remainder of his contract. Now he is being approached to work for "the Wire" so he is laughing all the way to the bank. His support base is out their like Trumps. He will return again in some form (perhaps his own podcast like Ben Shapiro?) like the slippery creature he is.

Yep, he can "cry all the way to the bank", as Liberace would say.
