RYou Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 CNN continues to clean house...... Don Lemon, CNN - out- fired. On the heels of a near billion dollar defamation settlement.... Tucker Carlson, Fox - out - fired. Dan Bongino, Fox went down last week. Both stoked the fires. Let's see who down this afternoon. CNN's Reid ? Another firestorm. It's pretty clear that with the Sandman settlement with CNN and now Fox's settlement with Dominion, the bosses are reigning in the troops and the slanty sided political coverage.

mspart Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 I just looked it up and didn't find Baritomoo out at Fox. Mike, are you guessing here or do you have some kind of inside info? Pirro moved to another Fox show and nothing about Baritomo on the google. mspart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mspart Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 (edited) Perhaps a scoop that didn't pan out. Which isn't unusual with news credos these days. Put it out and don't confirm, takes too much time. Everyone will forget if you are wrong, but you may be a star if you are right. mspart Edited April 24, 2023 by mspart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Luchador Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 I'm not seeing Carlson being fired, that seems to be speculation at this point. The real story is going to be in the details. He was a ratings giant. This hurts Fox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RYou Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 3 hours ago, Mike Parrish said: Baritolomo and Pirro also out at Fox. Last Friday, A reporter for WaPo speculated they would be canned. So far he's wrong. He also missed the Bongino and Carlson hatchet chops. What I heard is that Carlson was PO'd Fox would not let him air additional video from January 6. Then last week he had a segment hanging an MSNBC reporter over fictional lies about January 6. Fox wouldn't let the piece show. They duked it out and of course Carlson lost. His producer got the boot also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

headshuck Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 This “news” appears to have been orchestrated with the AOC demands on air. Are they about to float her as the new VP running mate for sleepy Joe or even Presidential candidate that took down the mighty Tucker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VakAttack Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 It's objectively hilarious that Don Lemon doesn't even get to be the biggest news in cable firings on the day that salty bitch was fired. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he's not there anymore, but not sure he was fired. It's pure speculation. Fox lost $1 billion in value today. He alone was bigger than CNN with respect to viewers. Tucker has been hinting about something big to come. Lots of rumors, the best is he is working on something with Elon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did not see them on Monday. Now, if you want "pure speculation", you could read your last sentence. P.S. Bill O'Reilly was too big to fail, also.

Yes that was pure speculation, my point exactly. Many legacy media outlets are all saying different shit. That tells me nobody knows. So far he's running for office, fired for running the J6 tapes, fired because of the dominion settlement, quit because he wasn't allowed to run a story on the dominion settlement... nobody knows shit, but Tucker is having a heyday with it. He certainly isn't upset, and is intentionally withholding information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plasmodium Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 I'm sure TC has a nice and comfy golden parachute. He'll probably build a very successful podcast and lie his ass off into the sunset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
