I wonder how many of these rumored offers are just a little effort at self-promotion knowing they can't/won't pay that and Tucker won't come

Tucker going to a OAN or NewsMax or Glenn Beck's outfit is beneath his brand. That's not really a slight to those things, but they're all massive steps down and don't have the staff/production value/research to make it a good move for his future IMO.

Would be a massive get for an upstart network like that.

He’s not gonna do it. He’s gonna start his own network and do his own thing.

Agreed.

I'm not so sure.

Not as simple as it sounds. I'm sure Tucker doesn't have trouble paying his bills with his salary or severance. However, starting your own network from the ground up is no small task or expense.

Well, Tucker isn’t going anywhere else but alternative media if he truly decides or wants to speak his mind unfiltered. Tucker has an opportunity to build or join a competing media platform to challenge the MSM corporate media. The question is, does he have the nads to give it a go?

Like others have said, he either needs to start his own network, or partner with Daily Wire and they start their own network.

Not going to happen. His buy out is to keep him silent through 2024.

If I learned anything from the Crowder/Daily Wire controversy, it sounds way easier than it actually is

If I learned anything else, both are a bunch of retards.

Tucker is bigger than any of those. Him doing his own podcast would be significantly bigger than any of them.

Tucker will be majority owner of anything he becomes involved in. His value is much greater than $25 million.


TRUMP 2024!

Or he doesn’t take the buy out and takes the bonus offered by his next opportunity.

I consider podcasting as alternative media and that’s fine.

Yup, Glenn Beck and Megyn Kelly said Tucker could go indy and make money right out of the gate. He doesn’t need a parent company controlling him.

OAN is a fake conservative hole funded by AT&T. I wouldn't take it.

It's not really that hard. Daily Wire built a brand from scratch. Stephen Crowder has a large following with considerably less capital and cachet. Clay Travis went from being a sports blogger to national conservative radio host. Glenn Beck did it before the era of technology. With the amount of money Tucker has and is still being paid, he could create something pretty amazing that would only get better as it grew.

All of those things are great in their own right but a long way away from a network like Fox.
