FOX ANNOUNCES THE DEPARTURE OF TUCKER CARLSON; LAST SHOW WAS THIS PAST FRIDAY
DON LeMON FIRED AS WELL!!!

Max Tani
@maxwelltani

Fox News' press release announcing Tucker Carlson's departure


tuckerleavesfox.jpg

pressreleasetuckercarlson.jpg

I can only imagine that Tucker Carlson got sick of being censored by Fox. Who I imagine has been really riding their hosts hard given the Dominion lawsuit.

Will Chamberlain
@willchamberlain

Reminder that @TuckerCarlson
took Sidney Powell to task over the nonsense that formed the basis of the Dominion lawsuit

He's not the reason Fox had to write the big check

And if Fox tried to impose new controls on him as a result I could see him quitting over it

Dan Bongino just parted ways with Fox last week as well. There were rumors last week that Maria Bartiromo will be let go, too.

Fox is clearing the decks of its actual conservatives.

This works out for me. I don't like Fox and can't get it streaming, except if I pay for a cable-like package, and I don't want to do that. I don't want to pay these people money.

Tucker will now launch his own show and possibly network, which I imagine will be available streaming.

And that will be a total wrap on Fox's corporate Establishment fake news for me.

I can only speak for myself, but I'm one Rube who is tired of being Conned.

They are going to need a lot of T&A to make up for this.

The Fat Weird Kid weighs in:


Brian Stelter
@brianstelter

Tucker Carlson is out at Fox News, effective immediately. This is an earth-shaking moment in cable news.


I have tried calling and texting Tucker Carlson for comment on his stunning departure from Fox. No response yet.

LOL.

The biggest "tell" in Fox's press release about Tucker Carlson's exit is that he is not getting a final show. No chance to say goodbye on his own terms or point people to his next home. Fox says "Carlson's last program was Friday April 21st."

When CNN ended "Reliable Sources," I was offered a final episode, a chance to sign off on my own terms. I really appreciated that. I think viewers did too. Tucker leaving Fox WITHOUT even saying goodbye? Stunning.

This replacement for Tucker will not rate as well as he did: "Fox News Tonight will air live at 8 PM/ET starting this evening as an interim show helmed by rotating FOX News personalities until a new host is named."

Tucker Carlson became, for a time, BIGGER than Fox News. His disappearance will ripple through Fox, the wider TV world and the GOP. One of the many impacts is $$$: Fox is pushing for higher carriage fees from distributors right now, and without Tucker, Fox has less leverage.

UPDATE: A commenter just wrote, five seconds ago, that Don LeMon remains currently employed.

And just like that -- no he doesn't.

57 Tucker had predicted this a few weeks ago, interviewing with another "anti-Wokeness" guy, I forget which Greenwald maybe). But he said of Fox "there's only one way this ends" and he meant with him getting fired (or maybe "leaving", idk) That is when Tucker said "well I'm not going to lie for them", which is pretty much what Fox demands.

98 The departure of Dan Bongino, Maria Bartiromo and now Tucker was probably part of the settlement agreement with Dominion.

Denied the connection with Dominion and election tampering put out by Sidney Powell?

Doesn't matter. They wanted him out, because Dominion DID mess with the election and did tamper with the results and they are part of a larger conspiracy to crush dissent and wipe their collective asses with the Constitution.
They want Tucker to SHUT HIS MOUTH...and they will get their way, for a few weeks. Until Tucker resurfaces somewhere else, because he is a hot commodity. But with less visibility than on Fox...for the moment.

And whatever happened to Bill O'Really? Working for the folks, still?

Posted by: Skip at April 24, 2023 12:13 PM (eZuqN)

117 As I said down below, I bet this deal is fallout from the streaming wars, and maybe a little from the uninsured portion of the Dominion settlement.

Fox Nation, like most streaming services, probably is losing its shirt. FNC gave Tucker a new deal two years ago, where they built him a Florida studio (so he could hide from further Antifa attacks on his home), and build a Fox Nation long form interview story capability. Plus, they agreed to pay him more. I bet FNC decided it couldn't afford to keep all their commitments to Tucker, approached him looking for a new deal, and he said "nah bruh".

I expect litigation, because the Murdochs MO is to negotiate via lawsuit.

Posted by: Huck Follywood at April 24, 2023 12:13 PM (huhcJ)

118 "over the nonsense that formed the basis of the Dominion lawsuit"

Exactly what did Fox say about Dominion that was "nonsense"? This has become a meme that nobody bothers to actually explain any more. At least some of what Fox said, such as that the system could be accessed over the internet and thus vulnerable to outside hackers and interference, turned out to be 100% true.

Dominion is absolute garbage and the entire software system seems designed to allow interference. Nobody has ever been able to explain to me why the damn system is so complicated with sophisticated algorithms and software and computations. Doesn't a voting-tabulating system just count the votes and display the results?

Yes, Fox settled the lawsuit. That was stupid. Fox has no balls. But just because you settle a lawsuit doesn't mean you were wrong. Lawsuits are settled all the time even though the defendant did nothing wrong.

After the sex harassment settlement he has some sort of web channel, that all the little old ladies pay for because they love him.

Right now there are rumors FOX fired Tucker, hence no goodbye show or final sign off.
He's been bitching about "corporate media lies" for some time now. Maybe he had enough. Right now I think he'll try to do his own streaming thing. I know Beck has offered him a spot on The Blaze.

Also what people do not realize is that having a media corporation the size of FOX at your back allows a modicum of protection, cover and air support.

207 "My guess is when Fox got told Tucker to put a lid on the J6 footage and Tucker knew that people were being locked up unnecessarily he made an 'or else' stand. They said go away." divide by zero

does Tucker keep control of all the info they gleaned from the footage? That would be nice. Wonder what happens to his team that helped with that.

Maria B and Tucker in a new venue would be nice. Need some investors, but they might face constant malicious prosecution. (but they have not faced it directly so far). Sharyl Attkisson would be another nice addition to that team.

They lost that reputation on 11/3/2020 when the Murdoch family cheered Trump's loss. They've been dead to me (and many here as well, I'm sure) since then.

282 245 What advisors? Trump does not take advice much.

Here are two examples.

“The real DeSantis record is one of misery and despair,” said Trump spokesman Steven Cheung. DeSantis “has left a wake of destruction all across Florida and people are hurting because he has spent more time playing public relations games instead of actually doing the hard-work needed to improve the lives of the people he represents.

On Thursday, a number of Florida members of Congress who had endorsed the president’s re-election campaign (even after he recently said that Democrats like Charlie Crist also did a good job in the state) stood grinning for a picture at Mar-a-Lago.

But from a policy point of view, Carlson’s preferences mesh almost perfectly with Trump policies…. So I suspect he’d be quite happy with another Trump term in the WH. Of course, that’ll happen when I flap my arms and fly to the moon (thanks, Dominion)…

360 I'm 99.999% certain Fox News intentionally lost the Dominion lawsuit so they would have an excuse to clear the decks of anyone to the right of George Bush Sr.

It's an old move. Steve Jobs once secretly sold $20 million of his own stock so he could get rid of an executive that was getting in his way. Nobody else knew it was Jobs at the time, and he used the sudden sale as support for his argument that investors were losing confidence.

I see this as a small variation. "Look, these right wing whackos just lost us 3/4 of a Billion dollars. We have to get rid of them!"

It's classic authoritarianism. Forcing people to repeat a lie that they know is a lie is a means of breaking their will. It conditions them to accept the next lie, and the lie after that, until you reach a point where the public will act as though they believe any bullshit that comes from official channels. Even if they know its false, they no longer dare to speak the truth.

Yup. Fox has nothing left now. Who do they have? Gutfeld and Hannity? Big whoop.

Fox News has been indistinguishable from the big mainstream alphabets (think NBC, not MSNBC) for some time now. Only the commentariat was nominally conservative. That's over now.

Fox News will learn that it is still the whipping boy. This won't make the others love you, Fox. Of course, you know that. The big shots probably applied major pressure to FNC. Time for any dissent - even pretty milquetoast dissent - to exit the public square.

Both about equally significant in human history. Michael had some good songs, but was basically forgotten and shunned at that point. Farrah made some lousy TV and meh movies and was more or less forgotten at that point as well.

The difference being, nobody was able to make money off Farrah's past, so she wasn't rehabilitated and thrust into the public eye again.

Years ago my company was sued for a $150,000, after 5 years of attorneys passing paperwork back and forth, we settled for $5,000, and paid our attorney $30,000. And our attorney was a junior member of the firm because our partner attorney told us it would be twice the amount for him to do the work.

511 The angular parallel lines that run behind and below the Guardians mark the statues as Art Deco, the sleek modern style of the late 1920s and 1930s. The Guardians of Traffic are Cleveland’s only large Art Deco monuments.
The wings on the helmets suggest who they may be modeled after: Hermes, the messenger of the gods and the god of commerce and land travel in Greek mythology. Also known as Mercury by the Romans, he was often depicted with a winged helmet to signify his speed.
Some observers see Egyptian influence in the statues. Egyptian Revival styles were popular in the 1920s, thanks to the 1922 discovery of King Tut’s tomb and the Art Deco movement’s embrace of stylized figures.
The wings of the guardians, which wrap around the pylons, have reminded one historian of the guardian statues at Assyrian kings’ palaces. The Assyrian guardians were part man, part winged bull, and their wings also stretched back along the square sides of the statutes. Like the bridge guardians, the winged bulls were placed in pairs and offered protection to those who passed between them.

Posted by: Semi-Literate Thug

I think they wanted to lose so they could get an excuse to clean house.

Nobody settles something like this for $700+ million, it would go to the Supreme Court and they would prevail on 1st Amendment grounds.

They were simply reporting what some people were alleging.

If you want to sue Sidney Powell for defamation, fine. But a news agency reporting on Sidney Powell? It's ridiculous.

Also, the network gave him resources to put a show together that will be hard to duplicate. Not so hard as in the past since with zoom you no longer need a local affiliate to interview people from afar, but he needs to hire a research staff, legal team, etc.

Traditional TV news programs are dying and CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, etc are the canaries in the coal mine. All those networks, including Fox, have lost a substantial number of viewers in the last few years. I don't see anything reversing that trend as people flock to podcasts and online programming that doesn't have the same restraints or control. In the end, that's a good thing.

They'll do what they want, pretend it's legal, maintain elections (good optics and they don't much matter anyway, at least not nationally), control the press so that they reflect only state/party factions, and we all get to play Kremlinology 2.0.

It's even more fundamental than that, Newsmax and OANN are close to being crushed and swept away, they may exist in some form in the future but they are essentially insignificant also rans.

623 I don't believe it's a censorship play, because in the end what they're doing is pushing people into alternative media where they don't have a lot of control over content. Traditional TV news programs are dying and CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, etc are the canaries in the coal mine. All those networks, including Fox, have lost a substantial number of viewers in the last few years. I don't see anything reversing that trend as people flock to podcasts and online programming that doesn't have the same restraints or control. In the end, that's a good thing.

Still think that they expected Trump to win in 2020. The Steal was due to the election night reports that the GOP was overperforming in the House. Remember, the talk prior to November was that the Dems would gain 15 seats.

A dem congress would have neutered Trump with investigations, and would have fundraised extensively off of it. A Trump victory combined with the GOP gaining the House (and holding the Senate) would have been a disaster.

Her being fired suggests to me that one of the factions trying to control the Democratic Party is gaining power, and eliminating forces that oppose them.

Think of it like this: the Democratic Party is the mafia, with multiple crime families (The Clinton family, the Obama family, the Soros family, the WEF family, etc). In one sense they are all on the same team: the mafia. But each family wants control, and struggles to gain power.

In the Mafia, someone would get whacked to get them out of power. In politics you lose your power and influence, you get fired, scandalized, whatever.

Dominion actually had a case, as far as what I've read. They got less than they were asking for, but it was still a lot.
Posted by: Ian S.
-------
Not really. Apparently what caused the settlement is that the Delaware trial court issued an order allowing Dominion to depose Murdoch Senior in the case. Happened last week.

The problem for Dominion is that truth is always a defense and the fact that many mistruths were told about their systems by the company itself and key players actually mentioned susceptibility to outside influences (being connected to the internet, wiping data logs, etc.) make it a muddled mess for both Fox and Dominion. Fox talent snarking behind the scenes in DMs about Trump and his lack of proof did not help Fox at all.

Legacy media is neutered. Alternative media soon will be. The elimination of AM radio is on the horizon. The RESIST Act has widespread bipartisan support, and that puts the target on the backs of websites as anodyne as this one. The lights are going out. Samizdat is the best case for the future and this Regime is every bit as vicious as its Soviet predecessor.

707 648 Susan Rice is leaving because they're getting ready to deep-six Biden.

Her being fired suggests to me that one of the factions trying to control the Democratic Party is gaining power, and eliminating forces that oppose them.

Think of it like this: the Democratic Party is the mafia, with multiple crime families (The Clinton family, the Obama family, the Soros family, the WEF family, etc). In one sense they are all on the same team: the mafia. But each family wants control, and struggles to gain power.

In the Mafia, someone would get whacked to get them out of power. In politics you lose your power and influence, you get fired, scandalized, whatever.

It gets really complicated when logs are wiped, election administrators are threatened with lawsuits by Dominion over trade secrets, etc.

One of the major issues though that is still unexplained is the divergence between Edison vote totals and those received by SoS offices and the disappearance in real time of votes. Essentially votes have a bounded limit where they can never be negative and thus any reporting system that subtracts votes indicates that the programming allows it to do so.

The other avenue of fraud at the local level is adjudication caused by a whole host of issues. Basically what you cast may not be what is recorded after adjudication in the back rooms.

733 6/9/21 James Murdoch, the younger son of News Corp billionaire Rupert, is known to donate to Democratic causes—an outlier in his otherwise conservative immediate family. But according to a new report, he contributed to the 2020 election cycle even more than previously guessed. Murdoch invested $100 million in his nonprofit foundation, Quadrivium, “which then gave a chunk of the money to political groups in the 2020 election cycle,” CNBC reported Tuesday. The massive donation, discovered in a tax return from 2019, is reportedly the largest that Murdoch and his wife, Kathryn, have given to their foundation since its founding in 2014—or to any political effort.

We have a problem where ANY system of voting including paper ballots is not reliable simply because it depends on who is counting them. Note that in Maricopa county, they went to old throwbacks to cheat using non standard paper that jammed. There are simply multiples of ways that a cheat can happen and many of the ways to cheat with paper ballots include discarding them, substituting your ballot for a predone one, and so on.

754 Her being fired suggests to me that one of the factions trying to control the Democratic Party is gaining power, and eliminating forces that oppose them.

She's leaving next month, so I don't think that it was a firing.

But there is definitely a factional battle ongoing (and has been since day one). In many ways, it's the same as with Trump: Biden came into office without any large cadre of supporters, and so had to bring in people from various sides. This has created conflicts and a lot of problems so far.

Worth noting that Smartmatic claims to be able to discern real voting turnout vs that fake numbers reported by Venezuela's government (saying in 2017 there was a discrepancy of 1 million).

Dominion's role is typically alleged to be providing data to facilitate fraud, which is apparently something these sort of operations can do.

Not quite, she was trying to gain access to the data which she did not have access to essentially. Hard to prove a case when a stonewall happens to prevent data access. I would suggest you find the Ga Senate hearing in late December how things went down in that state in 2020. About 7-8 hours long but there are multiple witnesses under oath discussing the problem. I happen to know one such witness before the panel and can swear to their veracity. For that, they were punished by being forced to appear before the Fulton County kangaroo grand jury that recommended Trump be indicted. Expensive legal fees.

If you note, Trump's legal efforts diverged from Sidney's and Wood's claims early on.

Pretty much. People trying to fight the government via lawsuits typically do not have deep pockets and often founder because literally the evidence that they need to prove any claims are solely within the government's pockets.

Essentially, you depend on whistleblowers and we know how they end up treated if they are not disinfo themselves which is typical in the intel world. Ray Epps is a key example and how the IC can lie--Epps denies being a FBI stooge but is quite possibly a stooge for some other govt department.

829 The black vote needs saving for Democrats?

Biden got more black voters than Obama! If you believe the voting numbers, that is.

At the same time that PDT got GOP black vote numbers back up to 1960 levels.

835 766 I gave up on Glenn Beck when he went anti Trump. Doesn't look like such a grievous fault now.
Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks,

Except his opposition lacked any kind of principle other than "I HATES HIM, I DOES." Beck is a fucking spaz. I wouldn't trust him with a button compass.

-----------------
Beck's opposition to Trump was that he was a liberal and would govern as a liberal which would move the Overton window catastrophically towards the left.
I opposed Beck's view in that Hillary would destroy the country and a liberal controlled Supreme Court would make every progressive dream come true.
Beck learned from his mistakes and made changes to his program and his network like hiring Whitlock and Deace. Meanwhile, Newsmax went left and Fox News embraced the insane Neil Cavuto and Bret Baier.

But the numbers wouldn't match.

If you "hacked" a counting machine and it spit out a different result than a hand counted result, the fraud would be obvious.

The machines don't print the ballots.

840 If you want to believe that, okay, but when people say it's been "hacked" on a server level and yet the vote totals with the machines match the hand count, then what?


Posted by: Blago at April 24, 2023 01:09 PM (nH8H4)

Well fortunately that was never a key theory nor really alleged. At least not by the right. Saying 2016 was hacked by the Russians was pretty common from the left.

Look, this is really quite simple.

1. You need to know how much you want to cheat by (this is Dominion's role, or you have to play the delayed reporting game which gives you a more narrow window).
2. You generate the needed ballots (for some reason they decided they were going to try to avoid chunky fraud in the data and ended up with abnormally smooth data)

Some of the ballots in step 2 are naturally pre-generated but sometimes you need to play catchup.

To all the cable tv holdouts: get a fast internet connection, such as 500 mbs to 1gbs fiber link. Get a Roku or equivalent to get some alternative channels, etc. subscribe to Daily Wire or Blaze or whatever you want.

Save money on you landline phone too by using a Voip phone. Buy a Yealink (easy to program) and connect through voip.ms. Very inexpensive.

Hacking counting machines isn't at issue here. I mean on paper you can do it and certainly machines were hooked to the internet and accessible but there's not much point. There are multiple ways to interfere with reported totals without needing to hack, and either way you're going to backfill the results.

Detroit tends to be relatively sloppy about lining up ballots and final reported results though.

I predicted this when Fox very obviously forced Tucker to stop running Jan 6 video after only ONE show and he gave that huge interview where it looked like he was having a minor breakdown.

Not surprised at all about this.

848 659 Hannity is a fat headed flag waiver who wouldn't know substance if it crawled up his ass and waived at him through his teeth in the mirror. He delivers a bunch of unmitigated rote, repetitive, banal snippets that while perhaps sometimes on target, are always inconclusive and lack both introspection and any type of coherent inquisitiveness.

850 : so Dan bongino is out and Tucker is out and the five is out and Jeanine Pirro is out and Maria Bartiromo is out. All the actual conservatives are being purged. Fox News is a pain in the ass but this was one of the few big media Outlets, actually the only big media outlet that even occasionally told the truth so this is a huge loss for the country. Thee are a whole lot of low information folks who only got a glimpse of some truth occasionally from these very people on Fox.

853 Deuce claims “I can only speak for myself, but I'm one Rube who is tired of being Conned.”

Who are you fooling Deuce? You’re pushing hard to President Bush III.

I remember when Dubya, the born again Christian, was so anti-abortion. So anti-abortion he nominated the current Liberal Supreme Court Chief Justice and some woman on his staff who had no record who was shot down by conservatives.

Oh, but your current guy is tough on groomers and transgenders, so all fine and good, even if he doubles down on the “territorial dispute” that’s not a “territorial dispute” (after a hard spanking and reeducation by his GOPe campaign funders) and sends Americans to fight and die in some dumb foreign conflict like the two former President Bush’s.

Either you’re fooling yourself or attempting to fool your readers.
