I’m sure all the senior citizens who fell asleep in front of his show every night will know how to access it. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

I give up on Fox after the election and I never liked Tucker Carlson, I don't care where he goes or what he does. He's an instigator, he's a flamethrower, he's a rumor monger and I really have no use for him. I can't watch Fox anyway I totally got rid of cable. I do watch a Gutfeld on YouTube it's the only worthwhile show on Fox now. I stopped watching Sean Hannity at least 10 years ago all he does is repeat the same talking points over and over and over If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Remember he used to be on Cross Fire with his step-mother wearing a bow-tie? I didn't like him then, but he's matured over the years. Yeah, as soon as Fox called Arizona during the election, even before the other scammer channels, I knew they were on the same side in the steal. Fox got a heads up. I never watched them since but I'd occasionally view what Tucker said using You-Tube. Why would any conservative pay for several fake news channels in their cable price to access one channel? |

The claim they didn't discuss Carlson, who sided with Putin from the beginning. To the point where Putin was showing clips of Carlson and Gabbard, trashing Ukraine on Russian television. During his next to last broadcast, Carlson was at it again. 'Ukraine is losing' 'Ukraine is losing seven troops for every Russian killed'. More clips for Putin. That is what probably did him in. |

Sure, Jan. If you believe the full 10 minute clip was watched 73 million times you are very naive. Someone just scrolling past it in their timeline counts as a view. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Yeah, unbelievable. It has huge repercussions for the industry in how we get info. It can grow too. Like independent journalists as opposed to dependent. MSM could be a thing of the past. I'm excited. |
