“I’m still employed by Fox,”
Just a technicality I’m sure.
Interesting how everybwants to know where Tucker is going but nobody gives a crap about Don lèmon.
It is probably worth paying him his salary to keep him off any competitor. His salary is chump change compared to his value. Worth more dead than alive, apparently.
The powers that be undoubtedly threatened the younger FOX management with severe consequences if they did not get rid of that bane of their existence. The old man in the old days would have told them to pound sand and shouted the interference from the rooftops; the kids, not so much.
Fox will likely keep him under his contract until the end of 2024 to prevent him from moving somewhere else or starting his own show
He will get paid until HE decides to opt out. It will come down to the lawyers interpretation of his non-compete.
Fox is trying to keep him from working for another network until after the election. What is to keep him from volunteering to work at another network?
The tradeoff is Fox keeps him bottled up for 1.5 years and he makes $20 million.
Or
He jumps contract and makes $50 million on his own network or from being offered that much elsewhere.
If he’s sitting on $20 million now, he might as well jump.
Why is Tucker texting “19fortyfive.com” and not a bigger name?
When does his current contract expire ?
My first thought when they removed him was “Black Rock and Vanguard”.
I don’t know if they specifically have shares in Fox, but I’m imagining the hand of some large investment banks in this.
CNN should hire Tucker for the 8 pm slot and another conservative before and after Tucker and in one move they would become competitive.
It would let FOX know viewers DO MATTER.
