Fox ‘News’ continues its assault on Tucker Carlson in an attempt to make him look unemployable. It’s not working, and their ratings continue to dive as they appeal to the crowd that’s not their viewers. They are reportedly teaming with the NY Times and Media Matters to destroy Tucker’s reputation. If true, that would mean they are joining forces with their worst enemies, who they are now trying to befriend.
When Fox News isn’t out to get Donald Trump, they’re out to get Tucker Carlson. Before Rush Limbaugh became ill, he said Fox News had nothing to offer us anymore. The man who joked he was more than 99% right was right again. He saw Fox was moving toward the subservient lapdog media, who only respond to donors.
Fox News denies leaking to Media Matters, but how else is Fox getting these behind the scene phone calls and private jokes? The NY Times is getting a slew of leaks also.
A recent example yesterday is when Media Matters Senior Fellow Matthew Gertz posted a video of Carlson joking about a woman looking “yummy”: “Just kidding, in case this is being pulled off the bird… Hey, Media Matters for America, go f**k yourself! That’s the first thing I want to say tonight.”
Bill Schmitt went over the issue last night:
We posted the worst of the comments so far and some responses. The postings are so obviously meant to destroy Tucker, and the two people who want that most are Media Matters and Fox News.
This is supposed to make him look bad as Media Matters’ Matthew Gertz self-owns.

This next one is from a group of leftists pretending to be conservatives. They have a Fox-leaked-to-Times text in which Tucker expresses his momentary feelings. They call it an exhibit. It’s an exhibit of a brief moment in time when – like everyone else – you have a bad thought. And then take it back because you know what’s right.
WOW.
This text message sent by Tucker Carlson the day after the Jan. 6 insurrection was the main reason behind his firing from Fox News:“A group of Trump guys surrounded an Antifa kid…It was three against one…It’s not how white men fight. Yet suddenly I found myself… pic.twitter.com/0HfIiZVNgL

Responses to this honest moment:
I love him even more
Antifa are terrorists and they would not hesistate to keep punching if they were 3 to 1. The point of the text is that sanity prevailed. Tucker Carlson upset the narrative.
That’s critical thinking.
What portion of that would be the cause for his firing? The part where he wished an Antifa member would be killed? Or the part where he felt empathy?
He joked and cursed about the slimy lawyer for Dominion grilling him. If you’ve met a slimy lawyer, you understand this:
We’ve got a new FoxLeak.
In this behind-the-scenes video, Tucker Carlson talks about how he was “triggered” by Dominion’s lawyer, who he calls a “slimy motherfucker,” during his deposition. https://t.co/B8hZtOkfBX pic.twitter.com/tPIzgGzFAw

The responses to the last one weren’t what Gertz wanted. They went on and on like this. Media Matters and Fox don’t understand his audience.
Another banger showing Tucker Carlson is hilarious and a genuine human being. Keep them coming!

So a video revealing Tucker hates the slimy lawyer who was trying to entrap him is supposed to make us hate Tucker? The desperation of the system is getting hilarious. pic.twitter.com/rqGl29sMVL

Just when you think Tucker Carlson couldn’t be any funnier, the next day happens.

Matt, for real today: it appears you’re being psy-oped by someone who wants to make us like Tucker even more than we already do.
By all means, please keep releasing these!

Fox News, i.e. the Murdoch Family hasn’t figured out that Trucker was bigger than Fox News. How is Hannity doing? No one is talking about Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham’s numbers which are down over 33%. This is a Blood Bath!.
No one pays attention to those minor criticisms except the leftists and RINOs who already hate Tucker.
But, Tucker’s behavior is shown to be immature and inappropriate. I expect a higher standard of behavior from someone I look to for information. After 2020, Tucker will never be a primary source of information for me.
It is great that Faux fired Tucker. It hurts Faux and forces Tucker to make a big decision on if he is going to work in an honest and direct way, more like OAN does. He has time to act, but if he allows himself to be stifled in 2024 he has chosen the bad path.
Todd Starnes has a more pessimistic outlook on Faux than this site. He shows that Hannity is having his lowest numbers ever, and Faux is approaching 1/3 its audience on the Tucker 8 PM EST slot. I am cheering on Faux being in parallel with MSNBC.
Fox News has revealed itself to be a fraud of a network. Nothing but slime on par with NBC/MSNBC, CNN and the rest. Fair and Balanced was BS. I’m glad their ratings are dropping.
Clearly the rich leftists who run Faux do not respect the viewers or have pride in their work. The best time to leave Faux was 3 years ago. There is plenty of good information out there, Faux is an impediment to anyone trying to be informed.
Faux-centrism in conservative thinking is over.
