A tale of two disruptors.
Prior to the election of Donald J Trump in November 2016, Washington, D.C. was a very different place. Trump's critics claim that he destroyed the stability in D.C. and for a change they are right. But this stability that they refer to was the result of a convenient arrangement between the two parties.
On the one side, there were the Bushes and on the other, there was Clinton or Obama. The public elected Clinton because they were tired of Bush. They elected another Bush because they were tired of Clinton. They elected Obama because they were tired of another Bush. They would have elected a Bush or a Clinton in 2016 but for Trump.
The voters thought they were switching or choosing between Republicans and Democrats.

Now for the media before Trump and Tucker.
The corporate media's function was to conduct PR campaigns for their respective parties and continue the deception.
Fox News claimed the be “fair and balanced” and stood for the issues that conservatives cared for. The rest of the media was liberal and did PR work for the Democrats.
Both wings of the media attacked each other in public and were the cause of the polarization over cultural issues. The media was an essential component in this charade that created the illusion of a difference between parties.
Tucker Carlson was drastically different. Like President Trump, he often asked inconvenient questions, such as why the US is spending billions of dollars in a foreign war when the nation is suffering on myriad fronts.
Tucker excoriated Lindsey Graham as much as he chastised Chuck Schumer for their unconditional support for a war that could lead to global destruction. Tucker even had the likes of Glenn Greenwald, who by no means is a conservative,

I think the disruption by both people was badly needed.
Agreed.
Fox News reporters of any kind or any personnel, do not come to our community to report the news.
They’re both enemies of the deep state, the Great Reset and woke culture. Carlson may end up in jail, like Trump. Or worse.

Trump/Carson 2024
Tucker was fired to send a message to other FOX news personalities.
Maybe Murdoch was thinking that we should give the young feller another chance (Biden), and Tucker Carlson was damaging his reputation with the truth.
Probably Tucker was fired as part of the Fox-Dominion settlement.
Perhaps Tucker should sue Dominion for contractual interference.
“Months later on Jan. 6, 2020...Carlson once again texted Pfeiffer: ‘Trump is a demonic force, a destroyer. But he’s not going to destroy us.’”

You can’t play nice with the left. All they understand is an in-your-face attitude.
Lol, even knowing his true feelings, many on the right will still willingly be suckered by him. They can’t accept it. He says want they want to hear, so the rubes will believe he is on their side. Just can’t process that it could be any other way, I guess.

I doubt that but I do believe that there will be significant implications to the other shows... as in their viewership will go into the toilet. After all, why would anyone watch them after Fox took out the one person who was unafraid to speak his mind AND replaced it with a very clear message of who they as an organization are and what they stand for. Most people I knew who watched Fox weren’t really watching Fox per se.... they only watched Carlson and oh yeah, that might carry on to watch a bit of Sean and maybe even a bit of Laura and Gutfield. I think the carryover from Tucker’s departure will have huge downstream effects.
Tucker is to the news media what Trump is to US politics what Biden is to little girls
there fixed it
Trump’s critics claim that he destroyed the stability in D.C.
Corruption at the highest levels
Kickbacks in house and senate
.............................................................
Tucker
Exposed all the media cover ups and most of all exposing the Jan6 committee Fox wouldn’t let him show proof on his second nights show.
You can bet the committee has strings to his leaving comrades.
