Tucker fired from Fox, and he still hates Trump

Do you not understand how any of this works?? Hannity is dancing a jig right now! He’ll likely get that time slot back after Fox is done with guest hosts and, either way, will see a significant boost to his ratings. All of these hosts (most networks, but especially at Fox) are out for themselves and each commands a warring faction of producers and off-screen talent trying to outdo one another.
You do understand that Fox News is a machine? They have a built in audience. It doesn't matter who you put out there, they get ratings because of the built in audience. Tucker failed at CNN and MSNBC before landing at Fox News. His career is over.
 
CNN was clearly sitting on this. Used the Tucker news to drop.


Lemon has been a disaster in the making for a long time. For the life of me I can't figure out why Tucker has a huge following. My wife watched him often (wasn't a huge fan however). I would go to my office when Tucker was on.
 
Don Lemon is a douche bag.

So is Tucker.

I don't watch either of them but see random clips on the internet and they both just seem like giant douches.
 
My guess is that Tucker’s rants about trump is what got him fired. Why just him and not the others? He was the only one iirc, that insulted trump. My second guess is that Watters gets his spot or Hannity gets the spot and Watters takes Hannity’s spot.

He was the biggest host in Prime Time. If someone can and wants to afford the risk he brings with him, it's not over. The question will be can he control himself with anyone else.
 
I wonder if the Dominion settlement is the only factor in this. Fox didn't have to oust Carlson so abruptly for costing the station money. I get the nagging feeling that Carlson was problematic behind the scenes (say, a huge fight or sexual misconduct).
Or some really bad news about him is coming. I would speculate proof of his collaboration with Russia but that seems to be a feature for the GOP and their mouthpiece Fox News.

Can you see how someone can conclude you are a dishonest person.

Why does anyone even watch Tucker Carlson? Or care about what he says.

Explain to us peeps how you can have a wife, who OFTEN watches Tucker and NOT know why anyone would watch him??

Right, back to my comment about Fox News being a machine. Where is Bill O'Reilly now? He was number #1 in all of cable news before Tucker Carlson took over for Bill O'Reilly in the Prime Time spot. So now two #1 rated hosts have been canned by Fox News which is unheard of.

Fox News is the only network that can make careers. You don't even have to be a journalist or someone in any form of media. After they leave the Fox Family. They do have a good track record of success.

So who's suing CNN?
Their low ratings are suing CNN.. probably can't justify his salary anymore and just used Tucker as a distraction like oh look squirrel!

Not 1 bit surprised about low ratings.. they've been going light right wing for years now.

MSNBC is the only true center left network out there.
 
Couldn't have happened to a shittier human.
