So... nobody knows what's behind this? I have only seen speculation IIRC in this thread (or elsewhere). Maybe Rupert had an argument with his wife. There may be hand wringing going on behind the scenes at Fox News. Who knows? Maybe it will come out eventually what transpired?

don't forget about Abby Grossberg's lawsuit.
"Carlson’s exit is related to the discrimination lawsuit filed by Abby Grossberg, a producer fired by the network last month, the sources said. Carlson’s senior executive producer, Justin Wells, has also been terminated, according to insiders."
Tucker Carlson departs Fox News, pushed out by Rupert Murdoch
Tucker Carlson's last program was Friday, Fox News said. His ouster is probably related to a discrimination lawsuit filed by a former producer.

Wow ClearChannel finally dumped him? I know he was on there as recently as a couple of years ago long after he started that blaze crap.

I’m sure there will be a few books about it, but conservatives will buy them up and conveniently forget to complain about “tell all” books and how they can’t be trusted as sensationalist pieces

It gets better if you entertain the theory that Fletcher is actually the killer and you're just watching her manipulated version of events. After all, if a small town in Maine has that many murders and Fletcher is the only common thread connecting them...

someone needs to do a meme of the actual murder rate in the murder capitals like St Louis, Oklahoma City, Birmingham, DC, Houston, Chicago, etc, and put this town on there with all of its murders. I wonder if it's like 2-5x the rate of all the other real cities.

That has always been an "internet-theory" .... that she was actually a serial-killer!
Now THAT I would have watched!

It would have been a fun final episode to show what really happened. Bring back every guest star that Jessica murdered over the course of the show and run through the scenes. The scene fades out with all the falsely accused people, now released from prison, closing in on Jessica.

My wife and I were saying the same thing about Longmire. Set in an even smaller town in Montana.

They are making abig show of deleting their Fox News app...
Related, they are also just now seeing the news that Newsmax donated $1 Million to the Clinton Foundation. It happened in 2015 but their heads are so far up their asses they are just seeing it now. They are running out of places to boycott.

On Reddit, some conservatives are fully conscious and even think it's a good idea: Carlson lied, he's out, we're better for it. I have, however, seen some who thought it was a shame because Carlson was "good."

I gotta throw a plug in for Desi Lydic because she's done so many "Foxplains" clips for The Daily Show and she's the perfect person to cover this for TDS

Looks like I’m not the only one warning about Tucker taking an interest in the next election.
Now personally, I don’t *think* Tucker wants the top job, because he’s too much of a coward without the necessary narcissism and delusions of grandeur to get over his fear (he doesn’t have what Trump had.) He also doesn’t want to end up like Trump or feel handcuffed by becoming a lowly public servant. But he certainly has the clout and the bankroll to be a power-broker, and I see him as someone who could either command a dark money network, courting favors from candidates for his personal endorsement and leveraging his celebrity to propel a campaign forward, and then eventually securing a VP nod or a cushy cabinet post with some real power behind the scenes.

Fox is just pulling out the long knives now so that they can at least pretend to be a serious news organization next year during the elections. Carlson’s ouster is a signal to their other mouth breather/populist hosts that none of them are more important than the news channel as a whole and that the opinions expressed are most likely all going to be coming from the top down in the future. The only crazy allowed will be that which has been previously vetted by Fox lawyers.
The accusation of a hostile workplace, the accusations of government involvement (ie, false flag) in January 6th, and the overwhelming likelihood of what was ‘underneath’ the endless Fox News redactions in the reams of Discovery that came out of the Dominion lawsuit all became too much for Murdoch to bear. I’m inclined to suspect that Carlson's stature with the network made him so full of himself that he felt indispensable and invulnerable and had no qualms about criticizing upper management. Maybe a memo came down putting everybody on a somewhat shorter leash in an attempt to keep them on the right side of the line between obnoxiousness and defamation, and Tucks stomped his foot and squealed “You can’t make me!”
