Fallout From Dominion Lawsuit: ‘White Power Hour’ Host Tucker Carlson Is Out At Fox Propaganda (Updated)

by

I saw this shortly after Fox News Propaganda settled with Dominion Voting Systems, Maria Bartiromo & Jeanine Pirro ‘To Be Fired’ From Fox News As Rupert Murdoch Moves To Be Less ‘Vulnerable’ After $787.5 Million Defamation Settlement, Critic Predicts:

At least one critic predicts [Trump fluffer]  Maria Bartiromo and Jeanine [‘box of wine‘] Pirro will be fired from Fox News as Rupert Murdoch moves to be less “vulnerable” following the network’s nearly $800 million defamation settlement with Dominion Voting Systems, RadarOnline.com has learned.

In a sudden development to come just two days after Dominion agreed to settle their $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News for $787.5 million, Puck founder and Fox News critic Dylan Byers predicted both Bartiromo and Pirro will be axed from the network.

Byers also indicated that, if the two reporters are not fired from Fox News, Bartiromo and Pirro will be warned to “be careful” regarding risking committing libel in the future.

“So I anticipate one of two things will happen here, or has perhaps already happened: The first possibility is that Fox News C.E.O. Suzanne Scott sits down with Bartiromo and Pirro and anyone else who came up to the line of libel and says, be careful,” Byers said shortly after Fox News and Dominion settled on Tuesday.

“Alternatively, Rupert and Suzanne have already decided to elegantly and eventually show Bartiromo and/or Pirro the door,” he continued.

Dylan Byers didn’t predict this coming: Rupert Murdoch has parted ways with his top-rated Russian propagandist, “White Power Hour” Host Tucker Carlson.

Media Matters reports, Tucker Carlson is out at Fox News. Here’s a brief look at his hatred and conspiracy theories.

Fox News stated this morning that the network and white nationalist prime-time host Tucker Carlson have “agreed to part ways,” effective immediately. Carlson will not be allowed to air a final goodbye to his audience.

Carlson has been a singular force driving Fox News’ extremism to new lows, single-handedly introducing the white supremacist “great replacement” conspiracy theory into mainstream American politics and becoming a kingmaker in the Republican Party as a result. A 2022 New York Times investigation foundthat Carlson “amplified the idea that Democratic politicians and others want to force demographic change through immigration” in more than 400 episodes.

Since the November 2016 launch of his prime-time show, Tucker Carlson Tonight, he has been a hero to hardcore racists and extremists for repeatedly hostingguests with ties to white supremacy and defending the QAnon conspiracy theory. He has also been the vanguard of January 6 conspiracy theories on the network.

As a result of Carlson’s success, Fox Corp. CEO Lachlan Murdoch made him the face of Fox’s streaming service. Murdoch backed Carlson every step of the way, repeatedly defending his bigotry and conspiracy theories, even as advertisers fled.

Media Matters has extensively documented Carlson’s extremism, including examples of white supremacist commentary going back to 2004, and he was named Misinformer of the Year in 2022, which included a non-comprehensive research file featuring over 350 examples of his misinformation. In 2019, Media Matters unearthed racist and misogynist comments by Carlson on the shock jock radio program Bubba the Love Sponge. Media Matters’ years of coverage drove a massive advertiser exodus from his program.

Below is just a small sampling of the worst of Carlson on Fox News over the years.

      • In September 2017, Carlson claimed that striving for diversity “gets you to civil war.”
      • December 2017: Carlson fearmongered that Democrats want “demographic replacement” with a “flood of illegals” to create “a flood of voters for them.”
      • In July 2018, Carlson characterized “hate speech” as “a made-up category designed to gut the First Amendment and shut you up.”
      • In September 2018, Carlson said America “was a better country” when it was less diverse.
      • Carlson warned his audience about threats of white “genocide” in October 2018.
      • In December 2018, Carlson said immigration makes America “poorer, and dirtier, and more divided.” He subsequently doubled down on the comments, even as advertisers began to flee his program.
      • Carlson has repeatedly defended Infowars’ Alex Jones. Carlson was a gueston Infowars in 2015, when he claimed then-President Barack Obama was pushing “Nazi” racial politics, and the former Fox host also sourced stories on Tucker Carlson Tonight from the conspiracy theory network.
      • In December 2019, Carlson labeled children separated from their parents at the border as “people who have no right to be here.”
      • After the murder of George Floyd, Carlson’s coverage of protests and victims of police brutality hit a new low. In June 2020, he said it’s a “good question” to ask why he is “required to be upset about” Floyd’s death at the hands of a police officer. Two days later, Carlson dedicated his opening monologue to showing photos of unarmed Black people killed by police and smearing them to justify their deaths.
      • On June 4, 2020, Carlson and his guest agreed the time for “vigilante justice” against protesters is near. He also told his audience that Black Lives Matter protests are “definitely not about Black lives. And remember that when they come for you.” Carlson lost nine major advertisers as a result of his commentary.
      • In January 2021, Carlson warned his audience they could be the target of a “war on white supremacists.”
      • The following month, Carlson claimed President Joe Biden would release MS-13 gang members “into your neighborhood.”
      • September 2021: Carlson described Biden’s immigration policy as “the great replacement” and “eugenics.”
      • In January, Carlson accused Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) of “blood libel” against white people.
      • In March, Media Matters reported that texts revealed in Dominion Voting Systems’ defamation suit against Fox News showed Carlson had shared a column a Holocaust denier had written for a white nationalist website.

The right-wing welfare system means that a POS like Tucker Carlson will not be off the air for long. Expect Newsmax, or One America News Network, or Right Side News, etc. to hire him for an outrageous salary in short order so that they can raise their network’s profile to compete with Fox News Propaganda. This Putin Puppet should just drop all pretense and go to work for Russia Today (RT), because Tucker is already the most popular American Putin propagandist in Russia.

UPDATE: Tucker’s former producer, Abby Grossberg, lawsuits against Fox appears to be the reason for his firing.

    • Guess you didn’t actually read the post Troll Boy – it included a Tweet about the 3 cable firings.

      • Go easy on poor Johnny Government Checks Kavanagh, he’s scared right now.

        He’s never worked in the private sector, the idea that someone can be fired for becoming a liability to a private company is confusing him.

        People have to earn their paycheck in the private sector, JGCK, but don’t worry, your government checks will still keep flowing.

        And not having his Tucker-Mommy to tuck him in every night and tell him he’s special is a great loss to someone so insecure.

        So while John Government Checks Kavanagh searches the internets for picture of Rupert Murdoch and George Soros in the same room, proving that they’re not the same person, because why else would they fire the only person who understands the healing power of sunlight on a man’s taint, how about we all give a few to some good causes.

        RaicesTexasDotOrg and/or ACLUdotOrg are both worthy.

        In the meantime, John, if it helps, Fox will replace your TV mommy with someone even worse, I hear they have a lab in Brazil where they’ve done some amazing work with clones that I think you’ll enjoy.

      • I can’t believe I missed that one line bullet point in an inserted post. Of course, AZBM did not comment on it but you got me. I missed that 1/2 of 1% part of the post. My bad but take your lame victories when you can.

        • Nitpicking troll says what?

          It’s not really that you have repeatedly shown reading comprehension issues, it’s that you’re so petty.

          Liberals don’t care about Don Lemon. We don’t have cults around TV talking heads.

          OMG you are such an embarrassment to this state.

        • Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov is upset about Tucker’s firing. Same for Russian state media.

          There’s your America First crowd right there.

          Fox seems to have a dossier on Carlson of all the bad things he’s done just in case they needed it to keep him from suing them.

          Right wingers don’t even trust each other. Ha!

          Right wingers are calling to boycott Fox News because they’re “woke” now. LMFAO!

          John Government Checks Kavanagh, host of the Kleverly and Kreatively named Kavanagh’s Korner (I guess “That Kavanagh Show”, “Not Another Kavanagh Show”, and “Kavanagh After Dark” must have been already taken) is having a sad that nobody is worried about Don Lemon.

          All this over a spoiled rich boy losing his multi-million dollar paycheck telling MAGATs what to think.

          MAGATs don’t care about school children being murdered in class but wow, fire the guy who is upset about M&M candies not being sexy anymore and they lose their minds.

  2. Tucker Carlson has now been fired from the big three cable networks: MSNBC, CNN and FOX.

    • Sadly, and in spite of what everyone is hoping, his base is still there and he will be replaced with someone worse.

      This was a business decision, not a save Democracy decision.

      Same with Don Lemon, Lara Trump, and Dan Bongino, all bad at their jobs.

      Still a good day.

      (Today’s made up name is a nod to the great sci-fi writer Harlan Ellison).

      • I forgot about James O’Keefe, who recently lost his job as head of Project Veritas for spending money on his musical theater career…

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hm_pH0ucc68

        Fast cuts hide the fact that O’Keefe can’t dance, but then neither can I.

        There’s video of him performing onstage in Oklahoma but I’m not that mean.
