Did Murdoch Shut Tucker Down? Rumblings that Tucker Changed His Show Plan After Threats and Pressure from Regime
by Jim Hoft Mar. 8, 2023 9:41 am

Did Tucker Carlson change his show plan last night?

In late February Tucker Carlson announced that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy granted him unfettered access to the Jan. 6, 2021 protest footage at the US Capitol.

Axios reported that House Speaker McCarthy handed over 41,000 hours of Jan 6 Capitol footage to Tucker Carlson at FOX News.

Tucker Carlson made an announcement on the news later that day. Speaker Kevin McCarthy gave Tucker Carlson and his team unfettered access to over 44,000 hours of January 6 footage.

Tucker was the only media outlet allowed to access the thousands of hours of footage.

Since the announcement, The Gateway Pundit and 33 January 6 Defendants and dozens of their family members and supportive outlets have signed a petition demanding Kevin McCarthy give access to The Gateway Pundit and the January 6 Defendants and their families who are not being provided the critical government video for their trials.

By now, somebody on Tucker's staff should have had the gumption to start dumping all of the video to a whistleblower website so that everyone can see it and judge for themselves.

I'm sure something like this was uttered at some point; "Yes! I'm shutting you down Tucker because if I don't those MFers will shut this entire network down and we'll all be on the street!"

Someone remind Murdoch who garners the highest ratings on that network.

That didn't stop him from firing O'Reilly, Carlson's predecessor in that same slot. After all, Carlson was a distant third when buried on MSNBC.

Murdoch is probably convinced he can put a tuna sandwich in that time slot and get as many viewers.

This does look somewhat fishy.
