Pretending that this is not a major, major career setback for your man-crush is like at Monty Python, amputated knight-levels, screaming "it's only a flesh wound!!". It is also hardly a "record store". You apparently don't know much about the evolution of media these days. 400 radio stations, plus plus plus. You are just a bit too eager to crow without knowing the facts. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LaosLover Posted April 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2023 Tucker was their only draw for the 25-50 demographic on the network. So two big predictions are being made here today: 1) Getting fired HARD and being bum-rushed to the 6th Avenue pavement is a career GODSEND. You'll see. Just you wait. 2) Many, many more catheter ads on Fox as they adjust to an even older median viewer age. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am thinking similar to Joe Rogan. Once he is free of the network and the bosses, he will thrive. He is/was a very good writer before hitting tv, and can also do long form interviews. Not to mention organizations like Blaze and Daily Wire have probably already sent him offers. I have a feeling he will be tormenting the entitled left and the Washington uniparty for many years to come. You can, I suppose, live in hope. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wherever he decides to go, it won't have the same reach that Fox News has. Look at the guy that he replaced, Bill O'reilly, who was just as popular as Tucker is when he was forced to leave.

Plus $60 million plus in legal settlements for his sins. These days there is a lot more to the media landscape than cable tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Eric Loh Posted April 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2023 Murdoch's sons are cracking the whip and Fox will have to change. They will still have their audience who are unlikely to switch loyalty. Henceforth the talk shows will be heavily censored and vetted by the editors. Fox hosts will toe the line if they want to keep their jobs. Big Fox personalities like Bill O'Reilly, Glenn Beck, Roger Ailes and others were big draws and have high ratings with their controversial commentary and conspiracy theories and they got the boots. Tucker will fade away as time will take its toll. Bye and good riddance to a bad guy. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we mock what we dont understand. He has the 5th most listened to show in the nation. Radio has overtaken tv as a media source. You are right, people listen in the car, both standard radio and SiriusXM. For longer than they watch tv. So we have gone from "like a record store" to disregarding millions of viewers and listeners. You guys are really desperate to see failure where it will not happen. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
