RUPERT MURDOCH FIRED TUCKER CARLSON HIMSELF, REPORTEDLY "CONCERNED" ABOUT TUCKER'S REPORTAGE ON JANUARY 6TH HOAX
PLUS: RAY EPPS CLAIMS HE'S NOT A FED ON 60 MINUTES

It has long been suspected that Tucker Carlson was told to stop reporting on the January 6th video. He hyped up the video, covered it for one night, and then stopped without explanation.

Although the theory that Fox News threatened him to make him stop has never been proven, circumstances sure are suggestive.

Now we have evidence Fox censored Tucker's reporting on January 6th:Rupert Murdoch made the call to fire Tucker, and was also, coincidentally, "concerned" about Carlson's reportage of the J6 Insurrection, which costs millions of lives and one AOC.

NEWS

Rupert Murdoch made the decision to fire Tucker Carlson.

Murdoch is said to be concerned over Carlson's coverage of January 6 including conspiracy theories about government agents being involved.

Here's that article that he's referencing.

A Fox News representative had no other details on Carlson's exit. People familiar with the situation who were not authorized to comment publicly said the decision to fire Carlson came straight from Fox Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch.

Carlson's exit is related to the discrimination lawsuit filed by Abby Grossberg, the producer fired by the network last month, the people said.

Murdoch is also said to be concerned over Carlson's coverage of the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, in which the host has promoted the conspiracy theory that it was provoked by government agents.

Here's that Abby Grossberg lawsuit, which smells fruitily of cowflop.


Goodbye, Fox. You will die alone and unloved and unremembered.

Very related: Ray Epps went on 60 Minutes to claim he's not a fed agent provocateur, and also, to not answer any of the questions about why he bragged about "orchestrating" the J6 riots.

"I did not have sex with that woman."

Btw, the notion that Erick Erickson or Ben Shapiro could replace Carlson is idiotic. Erickson is wobbly at best, and always has his eyes open for the main chance (i.e., getting on board with some outfit in the mainstream media), and even if I agreed with everything Shapiro says (which I don't), I can't take him seriously as host of a news and commentary show now that Ryan Long's satirical version of the guy (from the Fresh Prince of DC series) is permanently fixed in my brain.

The "60 minutes" appearance is par for the course. It's part of the standard playbook. First, the State/Party Complex ignores a controversy or suspicion. If that fails, they deny whatever it is. If that fails, they go on "60 Minutes" to lay out the official party-line lie.

People like Carlson are a reason that they got to step three at *all* on this one.

A lot of people call him a fed. He probably is a fed. Whether literally - as in, "an FBI agent" or similar - or just de facto, it doesn't really matter. Most people aren't all that nuanced with language. A fed is a fed. Agent, stooge, informant, whatever.

There are a lot of rumors swirling about. Will be interesting to see if we ever get the truth. DU has all sorts of explanations:

LA Times - Carlson fired on Murdoch's orders over discrimination suit. Abby Grossberg, a producer who formerly worked on Carlson’s show, filed a suit saying that lawyers for the network “coached” and “intimidated” her into giving misleading testimony in the lawsuit filed by Dominion Voting Systems. She also alleged a culture of sexism and misogyny at the network, and that executives tried to blame her and host Maria Bartiromo for the airing of 2020 election conspiracy theories.

93 69 So Ray Epps claims he's not a "fed." But nobody ever seriously claimed he was an actual FBI agent or an actual employee of the FBI, did they? The claim was always that he was an FBI stooge or CI. Epps seems to be making a very narrow denial on a point that's not seriously in dispute, in order to avoid having to make a statement on the real question of what his role with the FBI was. "I did not have sex with that woman."

A lot of people call him a fed. He probably is a fed. Whether literally - as in, "an FBI agent" or similar - or just de facto, it doesn't really matter. Most people aren't all that nuanced with language. A fed is a fed. Agent, stooge, informant, whatever.

Yes, I understand. But my point is that he seems to be adopting the narrow "actually an FBI agent" definition to be able to deny it. Has he ever denied accepting any money or other compensation from the FBI? Has he ever denied having a contact at the FBI?

The denial is more carefully worded than that. Ray Epps says he's not "FBI", and the FBI has said that the Epps did not work for "the FBI".

There are other intelligence agencies, of course.

Alternatively, the FBI could have pulled a Fauci and funded Epps through some private "security firm", in order to maintain deniability.

139 Tucker was fired simply to prevent him going after Ray Epps tonight. Matt Walsh, THE anti-trans activist, who made the best documentary about the subject, has been shut down.

NBC ran an interview with "Tiffany Dover" the nurse who collapsed from the vaccine on tv in December 2020 and hasn't been seen since. She looks nothing like her. Damar Hamlin is being "cleared to play" and the narrative that it was a freak accident instead of a vaccine injury has been established.

Meanwhile guys "on our side" like Dennis Prager has basically endorsed pornography. And doubled-down on it.

Everything is closing up, the Deep State/Great Resetters/Obama-Soros axis is aggressively shutting down dissent, tying up loose ends.

183 In TV and the movies at least, an undercover informant is arrested and jailed along with the real criminals in order to protect him and his undercover status. He then gets "transferred" to another jail/prison for some made up reason. Epps has been free as a bird and the deep state is trying to make the video evidence of him seem 'out of context', etc.

Fuck you traitor Epps. Watch how the deep state treat you when you are no longer needed.

202 NOODed on the previous Tucker thread but still applies.

"Does Tucker now take the J6 tapes to his new gig, or do the tapes stay behind at Fox? Meh, they played that cycle until it petered, so maybe doesn't matter."

I think the tapes play a big role in this. The tape that received air time that had the crazy costume guy (who received 4 years, incidentally) walking around calmly and actually, politely thanking the police, IMHO anyway, was devastating to the narrative.

If there was more of this, and if this had perhaps been the tip of the iceberg, there was no way the junta/regime/deep state/uniparty/establishment could allow the remainder to be aired.

Hoping Tucker has the tapes and makes hay with them.

Fuck all.

All shareholders owning more than 2% of News Corp:
1. Insiders: 40.2%
2. Independent Franchise Partners: 6.47%
3. SOF:: 5.06%
4. Blackrock: 3.59%
5. Irenic Capital Management: 2.06%
6. Vanguard Group: 2.51%
7. State Street: 2.32%

That's 62.21% right there, mostly held by the Murdoch family and its cut-outs. The rest are major investment banks, including all of the usual party playthings that represent so-called "Woke Capital."

262 Retail is going to have plenty of big-time failures. Most of the big retail chains are in debt up to their eyeballs in declining markets with rising interest rates. A lot of retailers are going to go tits-up. Any that have been subject to an LBO over the past 15 years will probably fail.

You can tell because the media and Democrats (I repeat myself) mostly shut up about J6 after that aired. The Epps interview indicates they think they can bring it back now.

----------------

I believe this. Throughout the Summer of 2019, coincidentally right before the Coof Op and the Fake Election Op, "news" sites practically in unison began shutting down their (often local) independent comment sections. By the hundreds and thousands. I thought it strange at the time, but looking back, way too coincidental.

Now we are gearing up for another Fake Election that will be even worse than the last Fake Election and fuck knows what other Horrifying Ops await, so it makes sense there will be another sweep of the internet that rather suddenly removes another layer of independent individual voices.

Doing it on a four year cycle like this makes a lot of sense from a strategic perspective.

Zaxby’s is great with the best sauce. The Kickin’ Chicken Sandwich is the best chicken sandwich on the market.

Bojangles is still preferable due to having bone-in chicken with a larger variety of generally good sides like the previously mention dirty rice.

The thing about CFA is it has a very limited menu and I’m sure that is half the reason they are so efficient.

Just to be clear...

Don Lemon got fired because nobody watched him.

Tucker Carlson got fired because everybody watched him.

Posted by: Citizen Cake the Red at April 24, 2023 03:16 PM (CwhoI)

357 Tucker Carlson has the name recognition and brand that could serve as the nucleus of a great online news network. Instead of joining one of the other (lame) conservative news networks like Newsman, he could easily start his own and run it his way. And instead of sharing the profits with an unappreciative and begrudging network, they'd go in his own pocket or for reinvestment. In a year or so his ratings will dwarf Fox News's.

Btw, there's a battle Royale over sponsors behind the scenes most people aren't aware of. The left has been relentlessly demonizing Fox News to big corporate advertisers because of Tucker. Now that FNC dumped him, they may be able to attract more big corporate sponsors. Fewer MyPillow ads, more Bud Light ads. This is undoubtedly one factor behind their calculation.

Posted by: Rusty Trawler at April 24, 2023 03:16 PM (1gif2)

358 It will take time, but I do hope Tucker opens up a line of communication right away, for (at least) the fox viewers to move to. People forget quickly.

But this may take a while to work it out. Hopefully Tucker had a backup plan.

He used to state on his show that no one was controlling him and he could say what he wanted. Nah, bro.

Tucker Carlson was way off the reservation with regards what was permitted to be transmitted within and without the Zeitgest, I'm shocked this didn't happen a long time ago.

How many main stream news personalities with a reach of 150 million people were talking about The Great Replacement as one example.

Tucker was literally transmitting heterodoxies and blasphemies gleaned from this very blog, nightly.

This could not be allowed to continue.

2) Border states are seeing an increase in crime and rapes, but to say they're from the undocumented immigrants is absurd. We speak with the Chamber of Commerce President Anita Dick about why it's so great to have everything made in Mexico.

3) Lisa Murkowski joins me to condemn JD Vance and Josh Hawley for being the only senators to vote against the 3 new Supreme court justices. Sure, it was executive fiat by Biden, but it just shows bipartisanship to just confirm these judges.

I hope he lands somewhere good. Until then, I guess I'll have to watch Glenn Greenwald's show.

443 "Only off by 17%?

Bummer."

Considering how little time has passed since that whole thing blew up, that is huge. Bud Light sells to distributors, not retailers. Distributors would have a varying ton of stock on hand at any given moment. It's not like they all used to call Bud Light for a new massive shipment to their warehouse on a weekly basis. There are plenty of distributors whose last order took place just before the controversy that wouldn't be expected to have placed any new orders yet by the time that 17% number was calculated. Give it a few more weeks and you'll see that number climb a whole lot.

Locally, it's being discounted heavily. Down by like a third. A 12 pack can be yours for under 8 bucks. That is probably moving product - at least for now, until enough wives bring it home for their husbands because it was on sale and get asked to please not buy Bud Light again - but it's going to be brutal on the bottom line.

I didn't see it. It doesn't matter.

This disaster is going to nuke their DEI score no matter what. The Mulvaney operation is over within InBev. That alone will send the precious DEI score into the sub-basement. At this point, they'd probably be better off going hard in the other direction. Publicly fire everyone involved. Repudiate the entire operation. Have the CEO make a commercial apologizing for wading into the culture war and supporting the trans movement. Lay out a three or five-step plan to ensure no further wokeness ever occurs at InBev.

I really enjoyed Tucker's commentaries over the years and with him being gone what's left to watch on Fox? Fox's version of The View? Judge Jeanne's legs on The Five? Tyrus parading around with that stupid wrestling belt over his shoulder? Martha Mcallam acting like Doris Day? The early morning show three who quack about potato salad recipes and clap like seals at lame country western acts? And for the sake of the children, I'm just going to skip over Hannity.

509 NYT is so excited about Tucker they are doing a "live updates" post about it.

The View ladies led a celebratory wave in their audience.

Rolling Stone is quoting unnamed FNC staffers as being petrified FNC will appoint someone "just like Tucker" to the time slot.

Axios is implying Tucker is guilty of every sin ___inable and is practicially Trump-like in his ability to escape prison time, so far.

It's like what you get before the day starts when you go to a conference at some hotel.

We have a few of them here in northeastern MD. Can't argue with your assessment. The only thing I'll add is they serve everything on what I call "headache bread". It's got a tough, almost leathery exterior. Requires vise grip style jaw strength to bite into, then you have to use even more jaw strength to complete the bite. I can't eat there without getting a headache and feeling like my jaw needs the equivalent of a 4-wheel alignment!

Let's see them go down and stay down 20+% over a period of months. We may have other wins in terms of public opinion etc., but misleading stock price graphs aren't one of them (same thing was done with AB Inbev 2-3 weeks ago; $6 billion in market cap sounds like a lot but it's not to a $120 billion company, and less when it's recovered in just 2 weeks...)
