JUST ANNOUNCED.
And Don Lemon just got fired at CNN....
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

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.
Same here. Totally done now. I hope Fox goes under for this stupid move, fire the best show and host you have.
I think Gutfeld should have Tucker on as a semi regular.
We have a winner!
Im done too, what a crappy Monday. FOX can stuff it.!!
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.
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...
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.

The Five is FNC's #1 rated show, Tucker's is/was #2 - for years now.
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.
Give him the Bret Baier News Hour.
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”.
