Fox fired Tucker Carlson on Monday morning. I was not surprised. Murdoch took a dive on the Dominion defamation suit because the loss gave him a chance to clean house. When your net worth is estimated at $17.5 billion, you can take a $787 million hit easily, especially when insurance covers some of it. We know he took a dive because he would have won on appeal. The media has a license to lie called Sullivan v. NYT, in which the Supreme Court said the media can libel anyone simply by calling them a public figure.
I am not sure what today's poll is supposed to indicate, but part of the problem at Fox is that Murdoch's two sons are homosexual and that is hardly something to be "Proud" of.
As far as what struck me as a far more important story is that Joe Biden has declared that eliminating cash will be one of his directives should he win re-election. In my opinion, once cash is outlawed, there will be no more freedom and all of Biblical Revelations will have come true. Who would have thought a corrupt whore like Joe Biden would be the spark to try and end God's creation.
It's easy to be a socialist when you are rich. Wealthy intellectuals foment revolution and other nonsense because they can. The working people are busy working and supporting their families instead of being focused on change.
The number of celebs kids that go that route is shocking. The first one I remember was Sonny and Chers kid,
(And did she ever), but since then it’s kind of exploded… almost like the glare and heat generated by their parents success cooked whatever self respect the kids had for themselves.
What a payoff for all that fame I think I’ll stay among the little people!
I truly believe that homosexuality is 'inherited' - that said more than 50% of my friends have gay children....makes me wonder if there's something in the water. estrogens from birth control pills? One of my friends sobbed like a baby when she told me - my heart went out to her; She said she would never have grandchildren but I reminded her that's totally doable today...surrogacy, adoption, etc...
They may be. Soyboys, but the source of my information is impeccable. Besides, he ave you ever heard of a male who had big knockers and wasn't a homosexual ??
There is no reason to do research on something like that. I was in the hospitality field for over 40 years and if I worked with one homosexual, I have worked with thousands and, at one point in my life, lived with a homosexual. One, he was closest friend and we were business partners. I found out quite by accident he was stealing from me and boy did he lie. I immediately ended my friendship and moved away. I can say many things atypical of homosexuals. They want to be center of attention, they hate to lose and most blame God for why they are the way they are. They all lie and steal. If you don't realize that, you might want to open your eyes. I refuse to call a homosexual "gay" because that word means to be happy and I have NEVER met a happy homo. I have never been to a "pride" march and never will, but if you want to see really angry and bitter people, get close to a group of them and listen to what they say cuz the love an audience which might explain why at least half of Hollywood is homosexual. I have written enough for today.
Here is a horror story about homosexuals. We were invited to a Christmas party at a former co-worker of my now ex-wife. I was given a drink by the host. About 15 minutes later, I was feeling quite nauseous and the host had me lie down on his bed. About 10 minutes later, heard an odd sound and I was barely able to sit up. The host had taken off his shirt and was undoing his pants. I got him with all my might, grabbed my ex and we left. Obviously something was put in my drink. My ex actually had the gall to criticize ME and she never did say anything to her "friend" and we eventually split up because of it. Prior to that, I did socialize with both homosexual males and females, but no more. Shows where her loyalties lie when she is a liberal and I am a conservative. What did we have in common the whole 20 years we were together?? Sex, travel and food. Her friend"

Why do we waste our time on these platforms talking about these sub humans.
Better we should start thinking and thinking solidly about what we’re going to do when we are cheated again out of the 2024 election because, if you haven’t been paying attention, they are going to steal it again, and just like the last two times, they’ve already told us they’re going to do it!
I agree with calling this trailer trash sub-humans. Many times I also wondered why Fox kept bringing this human waste to the forefront of their broadcasts. I can't tell you how many times I have seen that circus freak Dylan Mulvainey on my screen.
"While I don’t reject those two notions completely, I am sticking with my own take because I believe Murdoch could have won that lawsuit."
I agree and so do several prominent lawyers. My opinion: This furthers the notion that a) BigPharm controls much of the media, and b) This is further proof that 2020 was stolen and J6 WAS a fedsurrection.
Please pray Tucka releases the umpteenth thousands of hours of J6 video so we can finally uproot the Deep State.
Does Tucker actually have the J6 footage or does it actually belong to Fox? I think McCarthy “gave” it to Tucker because he knew it would legally belong to Fox and Paul Ryan is there to oversee what is aired. Aren’t they just clever by half? I don’t think we’ll see any more of it come out.
And Tucker wasn't 'based' in New York with the rest of the Fox crew. He had a home studio built in his home in Maine so perhaps he does have the J6 tapes
I think they actually had to go to the Capital to view it. He talked about him and his team spending a week or 10 days there. I really hope and pray I am wrong, he still has access though.
I'm inclined to go with Kennedy's take on Carlson's firing. He was on Carlson's show 5 days before and it focused on the covid debacle and big pharma's role. Big money does move allot of pieces in our world.
Tucker questions every topic - I think our RINO politicians are pissed that he questioned and pushed the narrative about Ukraine funding - Why is the USA doing the heavy lifting? Why are we paying for their teachers' pensions? It's just nuts - and if the American public was really up to speed - most people have no clue - they would be upset by the fact that their tax money is paying the greater part of the Ukraine War - it's almost as if the Europeans are sitting by with popcorn and watching the games...
I think you are right. All the rest are smokescreens. The dumbest spin is that Murdoch is going to sell Fox news and he had to get rid of CARLSON because he was toxic. It’s like buying the Lakers without LeBron, I’m sure the price would be the same.
Tucker made 10M per year at Fox, he will make 200M per year at Spotify. Like Joe Rogan before him, he will be even a bigger star. This dumb move shows the world Ailes was the genius.
I don't watch any news broadcasts on TV but did see clips of Carlson on YouTube.
My recommendation is get involved on the local level and learn how to ballot harvest. I believe that is Mr. Trump's idea. I've also been getting emails From Mr. Ramaswamy. I know they are going to cheat . So we either counter or we turtle up and wait for them to cart us off the gas chambers. It is the older ones of us who will be dealt with. The young one won't know what has hit them until they are living in Venezuelan conditions. Most of the votes come from the young ones. Rush used to say they wouldn't be able to pull off these steal if they didn't have lots of people voting for them to start with.
I know three people personally who still insist Joe Biden is doing a good job.
One final thought. The rich have always ruled the world. To think that will ever stop is pure fantasy.
"Fox is the Ray Epps of News." Well, that's one very good way to put it.
Your theory is as good as any, but my personal guess is Tucker didn't play along with the elephant and ass show. In fact, he exposed the circus for what it was, something meant to entertain and appease the masses but about as serious as you'd expect three rings full of a bunch of clowns to be. That is why Tucker is gone.
And, yes, Rupert Murdoch would rather be part of the show than be anything real.
Like saying the Emperor has no clothes, Tucker openly mocked our supposed betters in the ruling class, that mockery simply cut to close to the bone and he had to be dispatched so that the Murdock's could be a part of polite society
Rather Like Peggy Noonan of the WSJ - She likes to keep her dinner party dates on the Upper East side of Manhattan - so she walks a not-so-fine line...but again, she's a Murdoch product. SHe's totally unreadable today.
Jeezo Mr. Surber another burner, what the hell can I write to further this cause? I quit watching Fox the day Neil Cavuto abruptly ceased coverage of the press secretary Kayleigh McEnany stating basically he would not allow that sort of lies etc to be broadcast. CLICK off. Yeah finally had enough of their bull shit and turn "these greedy little bastards" off. Don't even know what in the hell I was thinking all those years of watching their bull shit. They sure as hell had some very nice eye candy, no? Prolly most of their people have become world renowned historians and everyone of those GLB's is pushing some sort of a book! That was started by Bill O'Reily, don't wanna hear shit from Brian Kilmeade et al. As I looked for a substitute channel OAN was good until they got killed off, next up was Newsmax which is simply a home for all the warmed leftovers that had left Fox either fired or were smart enough to leave on their own. Now it's pretty much Real Americas Voice! Ditched Direct TV, went to an off air antennae, streaming Sling. I knew pretty much all was lost when Glenn Beck left in a cloud of confusion that was years ago! If it weren't for the NHL playoffs really wouldn't watch at all, and don't get me started on all the pro sports Gay LBGTQ etc more insane bull shit... Tucker will land as you have on substack or something similar...Keep on keeping on Don, I subscribed!!
"This may jeopardize its status as the No. 1 network on cable but losing audiences is not as big a deal as people think."
This is something I just don't understand. Advertisers purchase slots in programs and shows with audiences of a sufficient size. If that viewing audience shrinks enough, the value of ad time for that show drops, as does its price to advertisers. At some point, doesn't the market value become such that it becomes a matter of who's losing the least amount of money?
If so, THAT can't be sustainable, can it?
Can an enterprise reach such an economy of scale that market forces no longer have any effect? Is that how CNN manages to remain as a going concern?
It is beyond my comprehension that market forces cease to exist beyond a certain point for an enterprise that has reached a specific level of scale.
Is it a set of secret economic laws that only the elite business schools are allowed to teach? If so, that makes sense because I graduated from a state school in Minnesota, not Hahvahd, Yale, or Brown.
I guess I'm destined to be disappointed, waiting for the market to act and lay waste to the network TV landscape.
If I'm not mistaken the fees Fox (and CNN ESPN etc.) receives from cable providers dwarfs the ad revenue annually. That's how they can do stupid things and survive
I've been under the impression that the cable TV industry has been struggling mightily for the past several years - apparently I've been badly mistaken.
I just look at how small their audiences are compared to broadcast audiences, and at the "records" they are setting on cable. There are also stories about this on media sites like the Hollywood Reporter. Instapundit, Moonbattery, and Twitchy cover them too.
Fox News was Rupert's child. This is a simple case of prolicide.
Like you, Don, my wife and I stopped watching Fox News, around the time of the 2016 election. She was on the Trump Train immediately. For us Charles Krauthammer, whom we both admired, killed Fox News. We never looked back. Not watching that drivel freed up a lot of time for reading more substantive news.
In other news, while watching the Chevron Championship last weekend, I saw the light of the big 'B'. The prize for a hole-in-one on the par 3 12th was what I can only describe as a Bentley worthy of James Bond. Given the sponsor, I wasn't too surprised. No Hyundai there. Gotta love Big Oil :D
I think Fox was more Roger Ailes's child. Murdoch was the owner but Ailes shaped the network as a conservative alternative. Murdoch is a faux conservative.
I am not sure what today's poll is supposed to indicate, but part of the problem at Fox is that Murdoch's two sons are homosexual and that is hardly something to be "Proud" of.

Lachlan's 'wife' is a communist.
You mean 'faux communist' - she's hardly giving up the family billions
It's easy to be a socialist when you are rich. Wealthy intellectuals foment revolution and other nonsense because they can. The working people are busy working and supporting their families instead of being focused on change.
They don’t understand history. They will be the first ones eaten when the true revolutionaries take control.
ain't that the truth - the Democrat White Elite seem to have lots of time to foment their Progressive Revolution....
Tony,
The number of celebs kids that go that route is shocking. The first one I remember was Sonny and Chers kid,
(And did she ever), but since then it’s kind of exploded… almost like the glare and heat generated by their parents success cooked whatever self respect the kids had for themselves.
What a payoff for all that fame I think I’ll stay among the little people!
I truly believe that homosexuality is 'inherited' - that said more than 50% of my friends have gay children....makes me wonder if there's something in the water. estrogens from birth control pills? One of my friends sobbed like a baby when she told me - my heart went out to her; She said she would never have grandchildren but I reminded her that's totally doable today...surrogacy, adoption, etc...
CC I agree,
But they can’t reproduce so they have to recruit (although it’s often more like a press gang type of recruiting.)

I don't think his sons are gay. They are soy boys.

"these subhumans"
Don has given (gifted!) us a new acronym for them:
"GLB's" - Greedy Little Bastards"
To which this preacher says, "Amen!"
I agree with calling this trailer trash sub-humans. Many times I also wondered why Fox kept bringing this human waste to the forefront of their broadcasts. I can't tell you how many times I have seen that circus freak Dylan Mulvainey on my screen.
Funny, I’ve never seen him. Oh yeah, I cut the cable cord three years ago after the election What are you waiting for?
I rod myself of my TV about 10 years ago and have never looked back. It will do wonders for your self-esteem.
r-i-d
What, me worry?
Haha…
But seriously,, you, me and everybody else!
Or, Fester Bestertester :-D
We are absolutely in a post-truth era.
Tucker should become the next RUSH.
I believe he already had - that's why Fox dumped him.
He already is the next Rushbo.
You cover so much with brevity, Donnie.

You're prolly right, just hoping at this point. I detest Paul Ryan and his wealthy, liberal activist wife.
Paul Ryan doesn't get near the condemnation he deserves. Truly a PoS
I think they actually had to go to the Capital to view it. He talked about him and his team spending a week or 10 days there. I really hope and pray I am wrong, he still has access though.
Did Fox just Bud Light itself?
Can you name a reason to watch any of it?
Drink Bud and your penis will fall off- Fire Tucker and your audience departs 😄
Yes, Fox just Bud Lite'd itself.
I'm inclined to go with Kennedy's take on Carlson's firing. He was on Carlson's show 5 days before and it focused on the covid debacle and big pharma's role. Big money does move allot of pieces in our world.

I read somewhere that Tucker was ready to respond to Ray Traitor's 60 Minutes interview and Fox couldn't let that happen.
I think you are right. All the rest are smokescreens. The dumbest spin is that Murdoch is going to sell Fox news and he had to get rid of CARLSON because he was toxic. It’s like buying the Lakers without LeBron, I’m sure the price would be the same.
Tucker will and is the winner on this. He will thrive. Fox won't they just "Bud Lited" themselves.

I wonder how much influence Murdoch's two girly sons have on programming and personnel?
