Would be a trip for sure. I despise Fox ofc and approach Tucker with hesitation and caution, but .... thinking positively here! lol .... his contribution was one rarely offered his mostly tv watching normie audience. Anything that moves the window for them is good - provided it acts as a conduit not a blockade. I don't know how he will reach the Laz E Boy and a beer crowd again tho. Not in those numbers. The alt Right has spent so much time, energy, and money (not to mention blood) helping the masses just see the problem, no one has much got around to fixing it. Too much time lost. IP: Logged |

EXCLUSIVE: 'Appetizers plus entrée!' Looks like Tucker Carlson doesn't give two Fox about his ouster from network - gleefully telling DailyMail.com his future plans while tooling off to a romantic date night with wife Susan quote:
Sources say, however, that Carlson is unlikely to make any significant moves while powerhouse Hollywood attorney Bryan Freedman negotiates his exit package with Fox Corp brass.

If Tucker were to refuse the money, do you think he'd be free to either join another news network or create his own platform? IP: Logged |

We are assuming that clause was in the contract. Even if so, employment contracts are tricky. I’m not sure about New York, but most states are at will employment states. So, an employment contract changes the whole dynamic. They almost always contain a noncompete clause at the very least, but the question is how much negotiation (if any) was Tucker allowed in drafting it? If FOX drafted it without Tucker’s input and just told him to sign it, then it can be challenged on a number of fundamental grounds. Think credit card agreements: These types of contracts are contracts of adhesion. Tucker seems very happy right now, so we have not heard the last of him. FOX Nation subscribers are dropping. Losing Tucker to another news channel is going to sting badly.IP: Logged |

That was to be expected. I think FOX will continue its descent down... But the network will probably get shadow money from Soros and Big Pharma, to counterbalance the loss and keep them afloat...

Tucker's contract expires at the end of December, 2024.According to Breitbart News, executives at Fox want to keep him under contract until after the 2024 election. So, if this is true, Fox's move wasn't just about Tucker Carlson, but more broadly, against President Trump. quote:
“As of right now, the plan remains the same: pay out Carlson’s contract and keep him on the sidelines through the 2024 elections,” one source close to Fox News senior executives told Breitbart News.

Poll Shows Tucker Carlson More Popular Than Fox News
John Nolte
28 Apr 2023By a margin of 59 to 52 percent, polling shows Tucker Carlson is more popular than his former employer, Fox News. “After being ousted from his prime-time show at Fox News Channel, commentator Tucker Carlson is more popular than the network that fired him — especially among conservatives and Republican voters,” said Rasmussen Reports, who polled 945 likely voters. “Fifty-nine percent (59%) of Likely U.S. voters have a favorable impression of Carlson, including 36% who have a Very Favorable opinion of him.”

I did not. I guess all of those will be gone, since Murdoch is going full blown globalist. His network will implode. Almost zero of his viewers are of that ilk. IP: Logged |
