Tucker should take Rush’s place

Yep, noon till 3pm with video, he'd clean up.

Good idea. Tucker will make more money from a podcast and Fox will make more money since the Tucker advertiser boycott is over.

I’m bored of Hannity and started following other people. Laura also lost me a while back.

That was my first guess as well. AOC had been calling for censureship of Carlson, so I guess that pressure, and probably a coducil that was added to the settlement was that Carlson be outed. Goodbye Fox. I knew you well.

FWIW

USA TODAY
Tucker Carlson leaves Fox News in wake of Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit
Story by Erin Mansfield and David Jackson, USA TODAY • 10m ago

Conservative Fox News host Tucker Carlson will no longer host his high-profile talk show and his last show was Friday, the company announced in a news release, the week after a nine-figure settlement from the company in a lawsuit related to the 2020 presidential election.

I think Gutfeld should have Tucker on as a semi regular.

Carlson was Fox’s top-rated prime-time host, netting an average of more than 3 million viewers per night, the most of any pundit on cable television.

Whenever Hannity has a live audience (either in-studio or on the road), it seems to me like the audience cheers louder and more enthusiastically for Tucker at the lead-in than they do for Hannity himself. Without a doubt, Tucker is the host most attuned to the network’s core viewer.

I've noticed that as well, although I don't watch Hannity as often as I did back in the 'good old days' of Fox News.

Hannity's studio audiences cheer super loudly for Laura Ingraham as well. She was a guest in Hannity's studio last week for one of his live audience shows. Her superior knowledge ran rings around what Hannity spews each night. He kept trying to butt in and interrupt her (as usual), but she skillfully avoided that, and got her piece in.

IMO, Tucker and Laura are in the same league... I've learned more from their shows than I ever learned from Hannity's or some other FNC shows. I wonder if Laura will be next to go...

It’s bad enough you only regurgitate the talking points of known leftist sites and the Brandon administration daily and repeatedly here, but apparently you’ve gone in for the full DU embrace. Go away.

This, right here. Truth. 👆👆👆

The voting company recently settled with the network, but not before text messages and emails by Carlson and other network personalities were made public as part of court filings.

In one of the exchanges made public, Carlson texts a colleague: “We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights. I truly can’t wait.”

“I hate him passionately,” Carlson added, per The Washington Post.

Jenine Pirro hasn't had her own show on Fox News for 2-3 years now. She's a regular on Fox News' highest rated show, The Five.

The Five is FNC's #1 rated show, Tucker's is/was #2 - for years now.

As far as TV, he’s going to have to go to a much smaller platform.

AOC and Hunter Biden have Spoken

That's the problem. Rumble, RAV, OAN, podcasts, even Newsmax are all well and good, but they are all fringe networks / sites that don’t attract as many eyeballs as a major network like Fox News (love it or hate it) did with shows like Tucker, etc. These sites just don’t have the “reach”.

I consider this a BIG blow to “our side”. The Left won big here and will be celebrating this ‘victory’ for years. 😡

Watch Bill Melugin move to the top of the pile. Fox has been grooming him for months. I figured he’d replace Hannity soon, but, boy was I wrong.

I quit after election night of 2020. Although a few incidents on Fox prior to that already had me consider dropping cable all together. Probably the big one prior to that was seeing Newt Gingrich censored live on “Outnumbered”.
