Tucker Carlson Fired from Fox News!
(00:00.366)
Okay, I just gotta let everybody know, just because I appear on many media outlets, in particular Fox, I never met Rupert Murdoch, I don’t know his kids, I don’t know the executives there, I don’t have the ins and outs in regards to what takes place and behind the scenes and all that good stuff. With that being said, again, I’ve been around the block for a long time, and I’ve been around many of these.
media darlings and stars over the years, and at various different events, whether they be at a radio row at a political convention, whether they be at an inauguration, whatever it may be. I’ve done a lot of these events and I’ve been able to come in contact with many of these people, not to mention the fact that I’ve been doing radio for over 20 years now. And certain people that happen to be
(00:57.742)
Anchors now in certain places, they were radio show hosts that were on the same network that I was in. And over the years, I’ve talked about many of the personalities, many of the personalities that I’ve come in contact with and what they were like. What they were like. You know what I’ll do today? Rather than pick on some people that are still on air, so much picking on somebody, but the big host.
back when my network, Talk Radio Network, was still around. And it was kind of more of a heyday for radio. It was a great lineup across the board. Everybody, you had Jerry Doyle, you had Laura Ingraham, you had Michael Savage in the evening. I’ll tell you my Michael Savage story, okay? Never met the guy in person, but I guest hosted his show on several.
And the interesting thing about guest hosting Michael Savage’s show, it’s kind of like the Gong show. If he doesn’t, he listens and if he doesn’t like you, he just steps in and takes over. Now he never did that when I did his show, but I heard from his producers after the fact, you know, they were honest. They’re like, you did too good of a job. You did too good of a job and they don’t like competition. But anyway, anyway, it was, I liked it. It was a good experience. And I thought he was a pretty decent host.
time. So let’s talk about Tucker Carlson and what’s transpired and you know what, we’ll go over some of the rumors, okay, because I just want to make this clear. Okay, this is the problem. Everything that you’re hearing right now, there’s been media stories, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, you name it, everywhere, mediate, all these places out there, they’re guessing.
(02:50.734)
They’re guessing, they’re operating purely on hearsay, innuendo, nothing has been confirmed. And again, to me, unfortunately, if you don’t know, then you don’t write a story and report that you know. So, okay, I’m gonna let you know, this is what’s floating out there right now. And could one of these things be true? Could more than one of them be true? Yes.
but nothing has been confirmed. And the issue I have is when things are reported on and more, it’s amazing, people hear something. Oh, this one wrote a story, this is what it is. They don’t read it close enough, close enough to understand that it all might not be true. First and foremost, the Dominion lawsuit. Fox lost close to $800 million in that lawsuit.
(03:49.006)
Um, again, uh, you know, I might need to make some changes. Um, rumor has it that it’s, it’s not the case. Some people inside Fox news are saying, no, no, no, no, that’s, that’s not the case. That’s not why, um, big pharma, big pharma is another one. Actually Robert F Kennedy jr has jumped on this one, sending out some tweets because, uh,
About a week ago, Tuck Carlson went off on Big Pharma and the COVID vaccines during one of his monologues. Again, taking on Big Pharma, again, who were their advertisers? I mean, watch Fox. Watch Fox, how many companies out there? How many different drugs do we see advertised over the course?
of a day. You wonder why we’re a nation of drug addicts. We’re constantly being pitched drugs, drugs for freaking everything for crying out loud. And again, I’m old enough to remember when that was illegal. You couldn’t do that. Now, this is gonna take me to a different area. Again, this is something that I discovered years ago. We talked about it on the show, talking about how Wall Street gets away with such nasty behavior and never getting called
to the carpet on any of the networks out there. Why? They spend money too? They spend money too. Oh yeah, Morgan Stanley ads, all this stuff. We actually got a hold, this is, gee, I don’t know, 2007, 2000, I can’t remember the exact year. I gotta look it up. We got a hold of an advertising contract between one of the major investment firms and one of the networks. And it said right there, if you’re planning any negative editorial coverage at all,
Pull all of our ads. Pull all of our ads, which is basically saying, hey, hey, you better be nice to us on air. Better not come after us or guess what? You’re not gonna get those Morgan Stanley Goldman Sachs JP Morgan bucks.
(06:06.382)
It’s how it works, how the world works, people. It is what it is. If you don’t think that this is, that they take this into account, they do. Whether you wanna believe it or not. Actually, I’m gonna read to you what Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is suggesting. He said, Fox fires Tucker Carlson five days after he crosses the red line by acknowledging that the TV networks pushed a deadly and ineffective vaccine to please their pharma advertisers. Carlson’s.
breathtakingly courageous April 19th monologue broke TV’s two biggest rules. Tucker told the truth about how greedy pharma advertisers control news content and he lambasted obiscus newscasters for promoting jabs that they knew to be lethal and worthless. For many years, Tucker’s had the nation’s biggest audience averaging 3.5 million, 10 times the size of CNN. Fox just demonstrated the terrifying power of big pharma. Is this necessarily true? No.
But he’s got a point there. It’s something to consider. Would I throw that idea away? No, I would not. No, I would not. But you’ll never find out if that was the case. Never, ever, ever. Fox, management and Rupert Murdoch. They were getting tired of Tucker Carlson. Some are saying that, well, Rupert
Murdoch was upset about these Abby Grossberg, things that she said about how she was treated and what went on there. She was, Abby Grossberg, she worked with Maria Bartiromo and she moved off that. She went on Tucker Carlson and she said she was bullied and subjected to anti-Semitic comments.
(08:06.318)
again. He said, she said, hearsay. I don’t know. I don’t know. But I do know that there’s been plenty of occasions over the years when people just make stuff up. This this Abby Grossberg is no longer at Fox News and some are saying that this is the dirt that Rupert wanted. Some are saying that Rupert wants to sell Fox News.
(08:33.678)
And having Tucker on makes that more difficult. I don’t know, like I said, these are the things that are being battered around. January 6th, again, his coverage in some of the video that wasn’t shown out there where things were looking not as crazy as it was portrayed at the time. Again, you know.
(09:02.702)
I don’t know. They knew that they were running that story. And the other one here is that Tucker might run for president 2024. Those honestly, those are the rumors that are being batted around right now. And some of the stuff was put together by Michael Schneider. Want to give him credit for that? Now, again, I would people just I’m giving you caution here. OK, I’ve got experience doing this. I don’t like being wrong.
You listen to my podcasts, you’ve been listening to my radio show. Um, it is few and far between on rare occasion that I have to start off a program and come on and make a correction.
(09:45.934)
few and far between that I have to make a correction. But I will, and it’s one of the first things I do when I’m wrong. How I avoid all of that is I don’t speculate.
(10:01.166)
I don’t speculate. I don’t speculate with my client’s money. I don’t speculate on the information that I provide. Everything right now is rumor. We’ve yet to hear from Tucker Carlson and his camp. His attorney hasn’t really returned anything. I don’t know what is baked into this deal. I don’t have a copy of his contract in regards to termination.
may have things in there if he’s terminated with cause. I don’t know whether or not he has to keep his mouth shut. I don’t know if he’s getting any type of payout or severance. There’s a myriad of things that are involved with it. I don’t know if he has to stay away from news for a period of time before coming back. Some people speculate. He should go to Twitter, start a show there, go to Rumble, whatever it may be. I don’t know.
Okay, until we hear from Tucker Carlson and the longer we don’t hear from it, basically what that basically is telling me is that he is, he’s got some sort of agreement where he has to keep his mouth shut and he continues to get paid. But again, like I said, avoid the temptation to jump into conspiracy theories or nonsense out there. Wait for the facts. Watchdog on wallstreet.com.
