A lot of truly evil people are happy today.

If Rupert Murdoch didn’t like what Tucker said why didn’t he have it edited or have a sit down with Tucker.

Sounds he’s not all there in the news business or pal of Joey.

Wrong way on a onw way street never ends well.

Seen about three of these posted now. All of them “according to (insert left wing news source) here.”

‘ Ms. Grossberg was isolated, overworked, undervalued, denied opportunities for promotion, and generally treated significantly worse than her male counterparts’
If she was a lousy employee she deserves to be treated worse. Most employees reach a level where their competence is insufficient to do the job.

Murdoch made the move reportedly over a lawsuit filed by former Fox News producer Abby Grossberg

Easy explanation but I doubt that's the case. There's someone/something bigger in the background that was applying the pressure.

FWIW - Twitter comments he was fired over his episode that was to be aired tonight re: Ray Epps 60 Minutes interview.

It is in Fox’s interest to make this a simple legal issue thereby bypassing all the big issues at stake. Fox and Murdoch are as big a part of the swamp as any player . . . perhaps one of the biggest.

Desperate people do desperate things in desperate times. Tucker had become uncontrollable. It’s that simple.

Didn’t FNC fire O’Reilly for,the same reasons. Typical Democrat trick. Accuse your opponent of sex capers and force them out.

I don’t give a flip about qualifications. Who did the better job? (And of course I don’t know.)

O'Reilly was guilty. Carlson knew that he was a hot target since day one so he was squeaky clean. From what I understand.

What is her evidence of sexism, as opposed to her management simply thinking the others were more effective?

The' root' of all his rests with a disgruntled employee - this gal who was fired from Fox...no matter how the picture is painted.

According to her complaint she (Grossberg) was isolated, overworked, undervalued, denied opportunities for promotion, and generally treated significantly worse than her male counterparts, even when those men were less qualified than her,....

She could have just moved to another network if she idn' like the environment...

Tucker went outside the “narrative” on issues of race, culture, real deep-state malfeasance & many other related political issues not talked about in the press.

Firing Bongino and Carlson in the same week makes its own statement. Anything else is a lie.

I have deleted Fox News’ apps on my tablet and my phone. I’m done with them.

meh, something is up here. Why else fire the Billion dollar man? They knew his worth, fired him anyways. No valid sex discrimination suit is worth that much- especially one that likely has no merit and is difficult to prove.

Likely its J6, or it could be Hunter Biden..... OR he is sitting on something else...... which I think is most likely.
