Probably because you're only watching conservative news?

Because Lemon's career is basically over but Tucker remains a threat to the establishment.

because 1 guy had the highest rated show on cable tv and the other was guy was "Co-host" on a daytime show with Poppy Harlow and some other chick that nobody has ever really seen.

if he was involved in "systematic" lies, surely you won't have any difficulty linking just one of them?

Because no one listens to Don Le Mon voluntarily. People overtly tune into Tucker.

They probably haven’t gotten around to the 25 people who watch CNN for comment.

I’ve seen some coverage about Don Lemon being fired but Tucker leaving Fox is a much bigger story. His slot had the highest ratings for Fox by a lot.

This is dumb. There’s no comparison on the overall chatter between the two.

And I’m not even saying this to exalt one “side” or put down the other. It’s just the facts. What’s the point in even trying to pretend otherwise? Seems a goofy “issue” to do that on.

Correction: the black, misogynistic gay guy that can't hold his liquor on national TV.

Just to be clear.

It’s pretty obvious why Lemon was fired.

Carlson

Don Lemon was fired because nobody was watching.

Tucker was fired because everyone was watching.

What is the deal with Carlson losing his show? Was it a mutual thing, he wanted to leave, or the network saying you got to go?

Because the Lemon Party is an embarrassment for everyone involved.

Yes. Fast forward six months: Tucker has a new gig making bank, Don has a streaming show nobody watches, or a podcast nobody listens to. Lemon is a nobody and will end up being a weatherman on some crap affiliate in Podunkville, which is a job commensurate with his talent level.

Cause Don Lemon had a morning slot on CNN that no one watched.
