Tucker Carlson Fired By Lachlan Murdoch; Here’s What We Know

Update (2114ET): After an entire day wondering why in the hell Fox News would can the highest-rated cable news host in the world, ever, the New York Times comes out with this;

Who:

The decision to let Mr. Carlson go was made on Friday night by Lachlan Murdoch, the chief executive of Fox Corporation, and Suzanne Scott, chief executive of Fox News Media, according to a person briefed on the move. Mr. Carlson was informed on Monday morning by Ms. Scott, another person briefed on the move said.

Why?

[T]he power that Mr. Carlson, 53, wielded outside Fox News could not insulate him from a growing list of troubles inside the network related to his conduct on and off the air, some of which had been grating on Mr. Murdoch and his father, Rupert Murdoch, the chairman of Fox Corporation, who co-founded the network in 1996, according to the two people with knowledge of the company’s decision.

The host, a polarizing and unpopular figure at the network outside of his own staff, was exposed as part of a defamation lawsuit by Dominion Voting Systems as a bully who denigrated colleagues and sources, often in profane and sexist language, and called for the firing of Fox journalists whose coverage he disliked. He has also drawn condemnation from the right and left for his role in fostering a revisionist account of the assault on the United States Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

So he was mean to people?

We also know that last week, Tucker attacked Big Pharma in one of his monologues.

  1. Tucker exposed way to much corruption for the deep state to allow. Citizens are begining to get wise of what is really going on in this country, and how our freedom is being stolen right before our eyes. Murdoch was instructed to shut him down by the higher ups, “such as obama and soros” or there would be more and bigger lawsuits, enough to pull FOX’s fcc license. The f.b.i. is corrupt, the doj is corrupt, the a.t.f. is corrupt, the c.i.a. is corrupt. Murdoch had no choice, Hannity will be next …. Wait and see.

  2. The family that runs Fox News also did away with Bill O’Reilly who was just as adamant but put the truth out. Fox News will destroy their own ratings and loose their place in the news world they will regret this and other firings that they are threatening to fire more from their prime shows. Wish we had Trump news their would be no more Fox News this family that runs this network will run it in the ground.
