Is it as simple as Fox not wanting to pay him?

Part of the Dominion settlement?

My guess would be something tied to Dominion.

That's my guess as well.

People on this board killed him for not pushing election fraud discussion. What did he really say other than give Sidney Powell a platform and then tell her she had no evidence?

Can’t pay his salary seems most logical

I can't imagine they simply didn't want to pay him. This is terrible timing for Fox.

Has to be fall out from the settlement. Honestly though, I'm glad it happened. Fox News is part of the corporate press. Tucker was the only reason a large number of people still watched their garbage. Hopefully people will quit watching and follow Tucker wherever he lands.

I'm not going to pretend that Fox, MSNBC and CNN are equal, but they are all part of the corrupt propaganda that is the corporate press.

Fox just agreed to a nine-figure settlement over a lawsuit that, in significant part, was based on Carlson's actions/statements.

Is it really that hard to imagine why they are letting him go?

Maybe my memory is hazy but didn’t Hannity pimp Sidney Powel, Linn Wood, and Rudy more than tucker?

Don’t know but his show was THE remaining thread that had me still tuning in to that channel for an hour (I used to have FNC on all the time).

Ten years ago I could not have fathomed making such a statement now….but officially zero reasons to tune into Fox News any longer.

They are MSM-lite. Sort of like the GOP has been DNC-lite.

They had to get the right propagandists in place before the next election.

Scapegoat goat for the rigged election shenanigans that Fox was sued over.

Correct. Murdoch trying to clean house of anyone who might be team Trump. I doubt you’ll see Beck on fox anymore

Why would he get rid of someone who personally dislikes Trump, then?

I bet he went off in meetings about why the hell did you settle! Probably was told to shut up about it and he refused.

Depending on whether he has a buyout with nda, we should find out.
