Dan Rather seemed to go up the ladder pretty quickly a few years ago. Went down the ladder pretty quickly, too.

Hmmmm. Fox is all in on this, that's for sure. He's a bit if a strange duck, though, by his own admission.

dude, look at the turnover on a major cable network. and not as a result of ratings. it's got it all drama, egos, professional jealousy, rubbing falafels on pussy.
seriously, even when cnn sacked everyone it was big news, but that was because nobody was watching.
pretty soon they're going to be dragging guys out of the mail room and putting them on air.

But it's not my place to tell people how to get their kicks, so be my guest. I haven't watched Bill since the late 90s and it had nothing to do with ideology or even the fact that he's kind of an a-hole.
I just got bored. There was nothing about his show that really stands out unless your primary emotional need is to feel like some old guy is "on your side."

His schtick is getting old already (and I like the guy).

speaking of which I remember when o'reilly interviewed howard stern...and it pretty much sums up everything I don't like about him, but stern really throws him off and it's pretty great to watch. you can tell o'reilly has no sense of humor

But that's not what got him fired.

bravo is my go to network. I know o'reilly's show backwards and forwards because my step father loved his show and when I was watching tucker every night i'd catch the beginning or end (depending on tucker's timeslot) of o'reillys show. the only thing that seemed different was the watters world segement (lame) and word of the day (lamer)
you know i'm strange, why would you think I find that appealing?

quote:you just described the whole cable news industry. I agree. I wish there would be variety shows. what's amazing enough is they do conflict tv and it's still boring. I just like tucker because he brings these whackos on and they're entertaining as shite when you push them.

alex jones losing his shite on piers morgan is still the highlight of cable news tv. it was just fricking phenomenal.

Back to the subject. Tucker's rises is more a condemnation of the modern polipop media than a testimony to his talent. Again, I try to see what people are seeing and I just can't. And, FWIW, the kid's been around for over 20 years. You're either my age or perhaps a bit older, so you surely remember the previous incarnations of Tucker--notably on Crossfire. Is he really better now than he was then, or has he just found his audience?
Honestly asking...

you just described the whole cable news industry. I agree.
As I said, though, sure the SJWs had their knives out. But when you know you have enemies ready to eat you alive at the first smell of blood (or the last) why keep giving them opportunity?
