As you may have heard once (or a hundred times), Fox parted ways with him this morning. But shed no tears for Tucker; his next act is likely to be YUUUGE - and very lucrative.
I found Alex watching Tucker, I will always be grateful for both of you getting us through Covid un-jabbed. I hope Tucker lands somewhere soon, he's a gift.
Yes! I started watching Tucker a couple of months into Covid. I'm pretty sure it was seeing Berenson on Tucker that made me stay. My wife and I discuss about once a week how grateful we are not to have jabbed ourselves and our kids, and it's in no small part thanks to these two guys.
I think Alex in large part was discovered for being on Tucker. I know that is where I found him. Thanks to these two men (among men), who would not compromise who they were like the rest of the cowards, I, nor my family ever got the poison. Where ever Tucker goes, the network will get instant credibility. As for Fox, good luck competing against CNN and MSNBC without Tucker. Dumb asses.
Fox May still beat CNN and MSNBC, but without Tucker the combined viewership is less than 1% of the population. That’s an irrelevant group. Legacy media is in its last leg. This only shortened the length of it. Now it’s all lies all the time on cable news.
Although a Fox news and business viewer, I found Tucker reading Alex. I knew who Tucker was, but did not watch Fox news at night. Alex notified he would be on the show, so I watched and was hooked. Tucker is a unique voice that will fall on his feet to new heights. Thanks, Alex!
Alex... Tucker to CNN would be a gain of function move. CNN is nothing more than a moderately pathogenic media virus, but even so, it should not be allowed to become stronger, like it would if Tucker onboarded. It is interesting though to ponder a future where Tucker is delivering pro-Trump news on CNN during 2024 elections.
Tucker isn't going anywhere. He is still under contract at Fox News. They didn't fire him. They just told him he can't do any shows. They are paying for his silence. They won't let him leave and go to a different platform until his contract is up - which is likely post 2024 election. And that is the point. They don't want him giving a voice to Trump or to RFK Jr. going into the election.
They aren’t just paying for his silence, they are continuing to pay him and threatening him with financial ruin for breach of contract if he speaks. Tucker can’t quit under his contract terms.
I found Alex a few years back via his Tell Your Children book warning about the real dangers of high THC cannabis (causes psychosis, everyone!). And then not long afterwards, his wonderful outspoken and true takes on covid. Forever grateful to you, Alex! We need many more like you!
I've got some bad news for anyone looking for Tucker to land somewhere else. It isn't likely to happen. It turns out that Fox News didn't fire Tucker. He is still under contract. They just told him he can't go on air. They will continue to pay him for the additional years of his contract. They are paying for his silence.
I watched baier every night from his first one until the last election when his obvious trump hatred became overwhelming. At that point we cut the cord on cable and never looked back. I watched tucker whenever I’d see him imbedded in some post here or there. Looking forward to his new home
I really don’t like Fox. Alex agrees more with Fox as a network on Ukraine while I agree with Tucker (and did from before the invasion happened). I am excited because I get to save some money - just cancelled Fox Nation and it reminded us to eliminate spectrum cable. I did watch Tucker’s Fox Nation content, but only the show once a week, and it’s as close to the legacy media as I get. No need for cable anymore.
Tucker - if you are reading this will you please go on Megyn Kelly or something and tell us where your headed? Can I put in a vote for Rumble?
I more or less agree with this comment. I have sometimes wished he was just a bit smarter and a bit more disciplined in his commentary (less snark, even when the sentiment of the comment is one with which I might agree.) I heard him speak live in Houston a couple of years ago & he credits his wife with a lot of insight 😉
When you are dealing with someone with an enormous ego, like Ye, who also has no particular reason to be talking to you, you have to be super nice just to get them to talk. Hence its difficult not to appear "deferential and adoring" when doing so. I watched parts of the Ye interview, including the parts everyone was complaining about at the time. On balance it seems that Tucker did a good job. It wasn't nearly as good as the Alex Jones version of the Ye interview, of course. LOL.
It was comments after completing the interview that were unnecessarily fawning. Tucker has a tendency to adulate most of his interviewees, not as badly as Sebastian Gorda but still reeking of insincerity and sucking up.
Tucker made Fox millions if not billions of dollars ... but it was all from people subscribing to Fox News from their cable companies or satellite companies. It definitely wasn't from the advertising his show brought in. Every major advertiser boycotted his show. Which is a tell right there. It was a show with the top ratings in America - with loyal nightly viewers; Educated and more affluent - just the type consumers advertisers are supposed to want to reach.
I can hear the sound of people across North America "cutting the chord" as I type.
That's no doubt true - he, almost by himself, gave Fox News its positive "brand" in the minds of the "red staters" and critics of the authorized narrative. But "Tucker Carlson Tonight" usually had advertisers you would see at 2 a.m. on some obscure cable network. You never saw any ads placed by Procter & Gamble or GM or Coca Cola ... or Budweiser. This was always a giant "tell" to me - Every big company boycotts the shows of journalists who actually tell the truth.
I hear people saying to cancel Fox Nation. However, if I do that, I will never see all those long form interviews Tucker did before he was fired. I haven't had the time to catch up on all those, and they're still available on the service if you look for them. There must be 100 hours of interviews I have yet to watch.
I don't like Fox either. After 2020 they repeated the same lies and talking points as if they were established fact. They adopted the left's vocabulary (the insurrection, the "debunked" election conspiracy, voting "rights" legislation), ad nauseum. Brett Baier is a terrible broadcaster and has no original thoughts; anytime he reads something he screws it up & he's a "company man".
I like The Five and Gutfeld and Jesse's decent. But Fox is part of the Machine and have been clotshot pushers since the beginning.
Thank you! I signed up at TuckerCarlson.com yesterday to see what’s next. I’ve already watched the Today content I wanted before cancelling Fox Nation. I stopped trusting legacy media in my early 20’s over Iraq. Here I am some dumb college kid that knows Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, Saddam was a terrible person but had an ideological approach to leadership completely at odds with the Taliban and Al Qaeda, Iraq did not have nuclear capabilities or they wouldn’t be so worried about Iran, our invasion was bound to be a cruel disaster. My thought was if I knew this as a dumb kid, so did every single lying turd at Fox, NYT, WaPo, ABC, NBC, CBS. I said until about 2015/ 2016 frequently “Fox News is NOT News.” I understood they were likely to be more accurate under Trump because the truth happened to align with their audience’s ideology, not because they’d become more factual, and my opinion was confirmed with the network’s Ukraine coverage. But I did rediscover Tucker, who I liked when I was younger and he was at CNN I grew to have a great appreciation of his willingness to speak out about the obvious insanity from the uniparty. We got cable back. We subscribed to Fox Nation for Tucker’s better content.
Without Tucker I have no need for cable or Fox Nation. Fox’s credibility has no powerful redeeming voices now. It’s just the uniparty R propaganda machine again peddling endless lies just like NYT, WaPo, CBS, CNN, NBC, MSNBC, ABC, etc.
I must admit the coverage I’ve seen from the old media about Tucker us hilarious. All are selling this crazy grifter chic’s nonsense, all while all failing to point out the idiot worked for Tucker less than a month and is using public information about private conversations from the dominion lawsuit, which occurred long before she even worked for Tucker, to claim she was “scared” he “might” use the term he privately called Sydney Powell in private communications front of her and somehow conversations before her time that she wasn’t a party to created sexually harassing work environment. 😂. It’s just total baloney.
To update, just now I read an Epoch Times article about Megan Kelly's reaction to Tucker's dismissal. The article ireported that Ms. Faulkner said on air that the separation was by "mutual consent". To the best of my knowledge, no other on air personality has said one word about this (excluding Kilmeade at the top of his villain gig) while on air on Fox. Hannity spKe about it on his radio show yesterday, saying he didn't know. I've lost all respect for her if the Epoch Times story is corredt.
As a HUGE Tucker fan- as in, never miss a show- I gotta say my world is a little rocked today. Okay. A lot rocked. Can't wait for his return- wherever it is.
And, as far as Fox goes, Tucker was the only reason I watched. They can pucker up and kiss my lily white behind. Fox will no longer be aired in our home- and I certainly hope his devotees follow suit.
On top of everything, it was a very cerebral hour of TV. Carlson didn't insult the intelligence of his audience and he went into great depth on topics no one else had ever brought up on TV. And then he did those hour-long interviews on the Streaming Service as well. I'm sure he will continue those wherever he lands.
Bad move Murdoch. You just screwed your own pooch. Tucker was the only reason I watched your network. Now I can add it to the garbage pile with CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, PBS and NPR... all leftist-uniparty-controlled propaganda arms of the Wall Street globalist corporatist cabal.
Time to wipe the entire MSM off the map. We need the likes of Tucker, Mark Steyn, Neil Oliver, Alex Berenson, Joe Rogan, Peter McCullough and others willing to stand up to the presstitutes, to set up an alternative to the current criminals. Don't forget either that Fox had a jab mandate in place.
He also used to fill in for Rush Limbaugh and wrote a must read weekly article for National Review before he got sued by some Global Warming activist. NR dropped him and we dropped NR. He’s GREAT!
I found Alex watching Tucker, I will always be grateful for both of you getting us through Covid un-jabbed. I hope Tucker lands somewhere soon, he's a gift.
Yes, same here. If not for Tucker, I wouldn't be here or have purchased Alex's book. Plus met all these open minded subscribers here. Thanks Tucker!
Yes! I started watching Tucker a couple of months into Covid. I'm pretty sure it was seeing Berenson on Tucker that made me stay. My wife and I discuss about once a week how grateful we are not to have jabbed ourselves and our kids, and it's in no small part thanks to these two guys.
I definitely agree with that. Alex was a staple for me all through the covid and vax thing.
I think Alex in large part was discovered for being on Tucker. I know that is where I found him. Thanks to these two men (among men), who would not compromise who they were like the rest of the cowards, I, nor my family ever got the poison. Where ever Tucker goes, the network will get instant credibility. As for Fox, good luck competing against CNN and MSNBC without Tucker. Dumb asses.

It is interesting though to ponder a future where Tucker is delivering pro-Trump news on CNN during 2024 elections.
I just want Tucker somewhere where he calls the shots and has complete untethered editorial freedom. And a platform that can handle the traffic!
Tucker isn't going anywhere. He is still under contract at Fox News. They didn't fire him. They just told him he can't do any shows. They are paying for his silence. They won't let him leave and go to a different platform until his contract is up - which is likely post 2024 election. And that is the point.

They aren’t just paying for his silence, they are continuing to pay him and threatening him with financial ruin for breach of contract if he speaks. Tucker can’t quit under his contract terms.
"Gain of function move." I love it!
SAME!
I found Alex a few years back via his Tell Your Children book warning about the real dangers of high THC cannabis (causes psychosis, everyone!). And then not long afterwards, his wonderful outspoken and true takes on covid. Forever grateful to you, Alex! We need many more like you!
same for me
And that’s why I bought his book and subscribe to his Substack.
Same here -- I would never have known about Alex without Tucker!
Same! I had never heard of Substack until I caught Alex on Tucker.
…the same, Debby!
Same for me.
I've got some bad news for anyone looking for Tucker to land somewhere else. It isn't likely to happen. It turns out that Fox News didn't fire Tucker. He is still under contract. They just told him he can't go on air. They will continue to pay him for the additional years of his contract. They are paying for his silence.
Hi KLG, that is really sad news for sure, can you tell me where you heard that information about Tucker?
That is truly a scary situation if they can contractually shut someone up. I fear for our Republic.
I hope Fox stock keeps dropping.
I now have zero reason to ever watch Fox again.
Amen. I’m done.
I do like Bret Baier. Couldn't watch the nightly news on any other channel.
I watched baier every night from his first one until the last election when his obvious trump hatred became overwhelming. At that point we cut the cord on cable and never looked back. I watched tucker whenever I’d see him imbedded in some post here or there. Looking forward to his new home
Agree…he’s pretty straight forward news…the real stuff without the Hannity/Ingraham fluff part.
I really don’t like Fox. Alex agrees more with Fox as a network on Ukraine while I agree with Tucker (and did from before the invasion happened). I am excited because I get to save some money - just cancelled Fox Nation and it reminded us to eliminate spectrum cable.

Tucker - if you are reading this will you please go on Megyn Kelly or something and tell us where your headed? Can I put in a vote for Rumble?
I loved his interviews. He usually just asked a question and let the guest talk.
Unlike hannity.
Yes. Hannity has his pluses but he's repetitive and he talks over his guests, doesn't let them talk.
(EXACTLY my thought while reading Steenroid comment)
Did you watch his interviews of Kanye West and Roseanne Barr? He was excessively deferential and adoring in each interview.
His last interview with Elon on Fox Nation was so good. He showed all the interview not just what was on his night time show
I think that Tucker is very bright but badly needs mentoring. His instincts are not always correct and his laughter is often inappropriate.
Love it when he laughs about the wake morons, especially those from the Biden Administration.
I more or less agree with this comment. I have sometimes wished he was just a bit smarter and a bit more disciplined in his commentary (less snark, even when the sentiment of the comment is one with which I might agree.) I heard him speak live in Houston a couple of years ago & he credits his wife with a lot of insight 😉
And did you have a problem with DJT's tweets, also?
Two deeply intelligent, insightful, honest men! It was an amazing interview.
When you are dealing with someone with an enormous ego, like Ye, who also has no particular reason to be talking to you, you have to be super nice just to get them to talk. Hence its difficult not to appear "deferential and adoring" when doing so. I watched parts of the Ye interview, including the parts everyone was complaining about at the time.

I can hear the sound of people across North America "cutting the chord" as I type.
He may have lost the cowardly woke corporations but he still brought in major ad revenue for Fox.
That's no doubt true - he, almost by himself, gave Fox News its positive "brand" in the minds of the "red staters" and critics of the authorized narrative. But "Tucker Carlson Tonight" usually had advertisers you would see at 2 a.m. on some obscure cable network. You never saw any ads placed by Procter & Gamble or GM or Coca Cola ... or Budweiser. This was always a giant "tell" to me - Every big company boycotts the shows of journalists who actually tell the truth.
I just did the same. Megyn & Tucker would be fire!
Rumble is perfect for Tucker!!!
I hear people saying to cancel Fox Nation. However, if I do that, I will never see all those long form interviews Tucker did before he was fired. I haven't had the time to catch up on all those, and they're still available on the service if you look for them. There must be 100 hours of interviews I have yet to watch.
If you have 100 hours left to watch, I'd say download the most interesting ones and turn off the renewal...........
100 hours is probably an exaggeration
I don't like Fox either. After 2020 they repeated the same lies and talking points as if they were established fact. They adopted the left's vocabulary (the insurrection, the "debunked" election conspiracy, voting "rights" legislation), ad nauseum. Brett Baier is a terrible broadcaster and has no original thoughts; anytime he reads something he screws it up & he's a "company man".
I like The Five and Gutfeld and Jesse's decent. But Fox is part of the Machine and have been clotshot pushers since the beginning.
BTW: Tucker's specials are still on TuckerCarlson.com.
Thank you! I signed up at TuckerCarlson.com yesterday to see what’s next. I’ve already watched the Today content I wanted before cancelling Fox Nation.

CANCELLED Fox Nation 2 hours ago.
He was all they had left except Harris Faulkner
Thank you for the reminder!
Note: Remember to Cancel Fox Nation...
Done!
I will watch The Five and Gutfeld! Until the run them off. Jeanine and Maria probably next maybe Gutfeld.
But I will never watch Fox again. Maybe if the ratings fall enough others will follow wherever Tucker goes!
I'd add Guttfeld! And Kennedy and Dagan on Fox Business. Don't share your enthusiasm for Ms. Faulkner.
Absolutely Gutfeld! I wonder if they’d let him have Tucker on as a guest??!
Gutfeld is great and so are his panelists. Yes, that show will be taken off the air at some point.
I doubt it. Would you go on Fox if you were Tucker?
Of course if he could speak his mind! Fox probably wouldn’t allow it though.
Yeah I like guttfeld but he's a staunch supporter of the vaxx (he thinks it ended the plandemic) ...even though he saw through the masking bs.
Dagan is awesome, but she's a bit player.
I like Faulkner because I know her. She used to be an anchor for a town I spent 10 years in.
Saw a different side of Harris when she appeared on Guttfeld a couple weeks ago. My mind is open to change. I love Greg inspite of his vaxx stance.
What's the scoop on Harris? I missed that
I just meant that I found her warm and funny during her appearance on Guttfeld, qualities I never perceived when watching her 11am show.
To update, just now I read an Epoch Times article about Megan Kelly's reaction to Tucker's dismissal. The article ireported that Ms. Faulkner said on air that the separation was by "mutual consent". To the best of my knowledge, no other on air personality has said one word about this (excluding Kilmeade at the top of his villain gig) while on air on Fox. Hannity spKe about it on his radio show yesterday, saying he didn't know. I've lost all respect for her if the Epoch Times story is corredt.
I like her very much.
I tried to cancel, but it just froze... I think it’s broken
OMG LOL - being totally inundated with cancellations.
Everyone cancelling all at once!
Don't forget to lose the Fox app on your phone and cancel any Fox series recordings on your DVR.
Oh good point. Thx for the reminder!
As a HUGE Tucker fan- as in, never miss a show- I gotta say my world is a little rocked today. Okay. A lot rocked. Can't wait for his return- wherever it is.
And, as far as Fox goes, Tucker was the only reason I watched. They can pucker up and kiss my lily white behind. Fox will no longer be aired in our home- and I certainly hope his devotees follow suit.
Me too! My kids knew that Tucker hour was “do not talk to Mom!” 🤣🤣
Oh yeah! It's on record every night in case we couldn't watch it live! (Admittedly, I had/have it bad!)
On top of everything, it was a very cerebral hour of TV. Carlson didn't insult the intelligence of his audience and he went into great depth on topics no one else had ever brought up on TV. And then he did those hour-long interviews on the Streaming Service as well. I'm sure he will continue those wherever he lands.
That's funny.
I feel the same way Dana. I feel so discombobulated.
RIGHT?? Like, up is down and down is up! I never missed a show!! What the hell am I going to do now?
Where I live (Left Coast) he was on @ 5. I Can start making dinner again!!!!
So funny, SarahB- I’d make my husband wait to watch Tucker until I served up dinner! I did not want to miss anything while cooking.
Right there with ya! I’m heartbroken.
I share your pain.
Watch OReilly on The First at 8 pm until we all find where Tucker lands. I vote he heads to
Rumble with Greenwald. His take on mainstream issues was the best IMO.
Greenwald rocks!
Where is The First?
On streaming devices, just add the channel app The First.
It is also a channel on Direct tv.
I still trust him but he is not in the same league as Tucker IMO.
At least it's baseball season. I can watch the Rays most nights.
Yeah, I would say "8pm Tucker" and watch it rdgless what the husband wanted to watch. Bye bye Fox.
I am done with Fox too.
I feel your pain. Here on the west coast we’d watch at 5 & the rerun at 10 nightly!
And with Tucker's departure there is now nothing at all to watch left on fox. Happy to be rid of the clowns, happy to follow Tucker wherever he goes
Gutfeld!
we like Laura.
Bad move Murdoch. You just screwed your own pooch. Tucker was the only reason I watched your network. Now I can add it to the garbage pile with CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, PBS and NPR... all leftist-uniparty-controlled propaganda arms of the Wall Street globalist corporatist cabal.
Time to wipe the entire MSM off the map. We need the likes of Tucker, Mark Steyn, Neil Oliver, Alex Berenson, Joe Rogan, Peter McCullough and others willing to stand up to the presstitutes, to set up an alternative to the current criminals. Don't forget either that Fox had a jab mandate in place.
Yeah I like Mark Steyn
I’ve missed him too! Humor & smarts…with the cool accent!
Never heard of him, please do tell me more. Am interested in listening to and learning from any trusted (rare these days) news sources.
He also used to fill in for Rush Limbaugh and wrote a must read weekly article for National Review before he got sued by some Global Warming activist. NR dropped him and we dropped NR. He’s GREAT!
