[So his ouster was unexpected. Wonder what happened to make him suddenly a liability in Fox’s eyes? ]
The sudden revenue loss from advertisers bolting.
His termination had nothing to do with harassment charges. Action was only taken when it affected Fox’s/Murdochs’ pocket.

Find the transcript from Rush’s first hour he will explain what happened.
His theory make more sense than the spin fox and others are putting out.
An organized Attack against FOX and their less than extreme left/fake news stance. They successfully took out the top guy. Will do the same to others that don’t follow the left line

It was an orchestrated blood letting over at Fox. The opening salvo came from the NYTimes who was carrying water for media Matters. Once the gun went off, there was a crescendo of complaints to the advertisers at BOR which cited the NYT hit piece as gospel and gave it credibility. Once the fire started, it was not controllable. Recall they tried something similar with Rush some time ago but he was able to withstand it. Since the new leaders at FOX were not supportive of BORs position and because he was an ad man for Trump, they chose the cut loose option.
I don't feel sorry for BOR, he brought this on himself. I do feel sorry for others seen as conservative as they will eventually face the same playbook. My guess Hannity is next up.

Hannity gets paid well too, and I’m sure he’ll get a big settlement when they find a way to get rid of him. I’m not a big fan of any one of them, but it doesn’t make these kind of tactics alright to me.

I won’t have a problem boycotting; I buy from none of them now. I care less about BOR himself than the fact these moronic companies can be pushed so easily.
