Update: It went to about -4.06%, but it’s climbing again. People are buying low.
Tucker Carlson is no longer with Fox News. The network has lost $962 million so far, and there is no sign of it letting up.
Tucker Carlson was important to Fox, not just for his show’s success but also for Fox Nation’s success. People will see it as the downfall of the network. Did Tucker leave on his own, was it mutual, or did Fox make him part of the settlement with Dominion Voting Systems?
Tucker departed one week after the company settled a defamation lawsuit with Dominion Voting Systems.
It was an unceremonious exit with a short clinical statement by Fox.
Tucker Carlson has consistently had one of the most-watched news shows on cable TV. He’s also the lure for Fox Nation.
Tucker leaving is a win for Media Matters, AOC, Democrats, George Soros, and RINOs, and the list is too long to complete.
What network will pick him up? Dominion is suing OANN and Newsmax. Neither network is in a position to pick him up. They’re lucky if they survive. Perhaps Levin’s or Beck’s network could pick him up.
Whether the crash continues to go over $962 million, we can’t say, but Fox had to know this would happen. They must have faced an existential threat with this lawsuit.

Another opportunity for DEI giant and Chief Communist Larry Fink at BlackRock to buy more Fox stock, Its not about the money its about snuffing out any and all opposition. The Left is moving quickly to close down all access to information and organization. The abrupt firing of Tucker Carlson was just another obvious step. I expect all other avenues… Read more »
Maybe they can get Bill O’Full-of-Himself-Reilly back in that spot. Haven’t had TV service for 14 years, but pretty sure Tucker was Fox’s replacement for O’Reilly, yes? Heh, heh …
Oops, yeah, my mistake. It wasn’t O’Reilly’s slot, it was Megan Kelly’s. Same difference, but that’s what I get for having abandoned TV altogether … the drama of the personalities gets away from me.
Some of the best online information to be had on the international level is “The Duran.” Fascinating commentary delivered by extremely cogent, well-informed minds. Zero drama.
Whatever going on is dirty, but we had plenty of notice that Faux is no good, at least 8 years. Faux conceding on a lawsuit they could have won, to protect the 1st amendment, and giving $787 million to a corrupt vote operation, then releasing its money maker, makes no sense, unless there are some corrupt backroom deals involved. We… Read more »
And his name is Paul Ryan.
Apparently that settlement amounts to about 8 years of profits for Dominion, but one person said it would be nearly that in the end. I don’t see how that squares with a “settlement”.
Bye bye Fox. The only thing left is GUTFELD at night.
That is a comedy show, and Gutfeld constantly attacked Trump in 2016.
I guess FOX is choosing Bankruptcy over having to pay Dominion Voting Systems.
We have to wonder Why Fox settled in the first place. There’s also the coverage of J6 and Ukraine by Tucker.
I think it is back room collusion with the elite left and election crooks to settle.
Since there is no announced replacement, I’m thinking he was the one who bailed. Don Lemon was fired today, maybe he can step in. Glad I dumped cable news. Now there is no reason to even want to watch this dishonest network. Say hello to Budweiser on the way down, Fox.
I agree. A conflict caused this.
Faux agreed it improperly covered the vote machine role in the election. That would anger some staff. Firing Tucker is not part of the deal.
