The left is celebrating because they think that Tucker Carlson leaving Fox News eliminates his voice.

Wrong.

Anyone else find it strange that both Carlson and Lemon were jettisoned within hours of each other?   :pondering:

You can be certain that there is a story behind this. Media companies don't dump high-ratings talent like this without a reason.

Yeah...IMO, it went something like this:

Dominion said the would accept $150M in cash but wanted Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham and Shannon Bream gone and admit to the world it cost them $750M in payouts.

Which if true would bring up some interesting speculative matters around whether Dominion was truly a-political or not.
I remember reading or hearing some scuttle a number of years ago about how their organization had nefarious objectives. Seems a few months might have gotten to close to the flame.

Don Lemon’s statement about this morning’s events is inaccurate. He was offered an opportunity to meet with management but instead released a statement on Twitter.

Don couldn't even find it within himself to be honest about his departure.  :silly:

When Bill O'Reilly, the absolute KING of primetime cable was summarily dismissed, we felt it was going to hurt FOXNEWS.

After sixty days of Tucker Carlson, it was Bill O'Whoo?   happy77

I agree it was a shock to hear this.  What #1 rated primetime cable network fires their #1 undisputed STAR??

He just interviewed Elon Musk AND President Trump last week!!

How long before Don lays the blame for his firing on CNN management being "homophobic"?

Hell fire Hannity, Ingraham, Bortilomo, Kudlow, Gutfeld, Payne, and Watters too while they are at it.

All of them are going to suffer from the Faux-lash......

Just a hunch but I'm guessing that after Don Lemon's 6 month non compete is up he'll join his BFF Chris Cuomo over at News Nation.

Several hosts were involved, so this move is strange unless others are forthcoming. 

Fox made a costly mistake in spreading rumors about DVS.  They may also have to settle with Smartmatic pretty soon.  Dominion and Smartmatic have ongoing lawsuits with Sidney Powell, Rudy Giuliani, Patrick Byrne, Newsmax, OAN, and Mike Lindell.

Interesting question...with Tucker Carlson leaving Fox News does he maintain possession of the J6 video that Speaker McCarthy gave him or is it still in storage at the Newscorp Building?

If he was fired, I'd be surprised if a non compete would be valid or even less likely enforced.  The guy's toxic in ever respect, even to the lefty's.   I am thinking he is in more of Keith Olberman territory.

@catfish1957

Do you know how easy-peazy it must be for Elon Musk & Donald Trump to start/buy a News Network?

That said, I wonder if mainstream food conglomerates and car companies will start buying airtime commercial spots on FOXNEWS now...am getting a bit sick of Mike Lindell's hawking.

In my experience in radio they are enforceable whether there is a mutual decision between you and management to leave or if you're fired.

I've been in both situations.

Cuomo was fired. 6 months later he was on NN.

Guess you'd know.  Wouldn't contract expiration dates trump any other exit clauses?

Let others be forewarned ...

- providing material support for sedition and insurrection = okay ...
- providing material support for America's enemies = okay ...
- fraudulently presenting known lies as 'truth' and 'news' = okay ...
- hiding true, embarassing information about Fox from Fox viewers = okay ...
- costing old man Murdoch $700+ million = NOT OKAY

That likely would depend on whether he was terminated for cause, and therefore did not receive any more payments, or whether he is still going to collect his salary for whatever remains of his contractual term.

Generally, these guys can be required to stay off the air as long as they are still getting paid by their employer.
