So let’s file this one under: They had to have known that this was going to happen! And of course, what I’m talking about, here, is the rather harebrained idea arrived at by the geniuses running the show over there at Fox News to fire Tucker Carlson, the last guy worth watching on the entire network. And as I’ve said before, I haven’t watched Fox since election night 2020. And with Tucker now gone there’s really no longer reason for anyone to watch. I mean, who’s left? Baier? Hannity? Cavuto? MacCallum? You gotta be kidding! How is it that any of them are any different than any of the boobs on CNN or MSDNC? They’re not! They’re no different at all!!!
And you know, it was once upon a time, in a galaxy
far, far away that “Fair and Balanced” was a fairly accurate catchphrase, even
though it was a rare occurrence when any truly hardcore Democrat dared to make
an appearance on the network. And it would eventually cease to be anything more
than a bumper sticker slogan. And it really became nothing but an oxymoron with
the arrival of Donald Trump on the scene as it was with very few exceptions
that the network was obviously anti-Trump. And it was over time that the
anti-Trump sentiment only seemed to intensify among the first stringers there
at the network, culminating on election night 2020.
I can’t say that I’m all that disappointed to hear
that the ratings for Fox News have dropped off rather precipitously in the wake
of Carlson departing the network. During its 8 pm hour, the network has dropped
from a three million viewer average to a 1.65 million viewer average since the
departure of Carlson; the hour was previously filled by Fox & Friends
co-host Brian Kilmeade, which will then be filled by Fox News personality
Lawrence Jones. Good luck, Lawrence, you’ll need it!! And it was in a statement
this week that the company confidently said that the network will continue
delivering the coverage that has made it a ratings powerhouse in recent years.
It’s now very clear that Fox News needed Tucker far more
than Tucker needed Fox News. Their ratings plunge has proven that. And firing
him was nothing more than the final nail in their ratings coffin. Most
Americans are coming to realize that the legacy media is owned by the global
elites making them able to spout whatever propaganda their bosses want. Fox
News has long been nothing more than controlled opposition and when Tucker
started saying inconvenient truths, he simply had to go. A journalist was fired
for being a journalist. Psychoanalyze that America, and acknowledge its
implications and take a magnifying glass to the people behind the firing.
But Fox did far more than to simply fire an anchor,
when they got rid of Carlson. Because it was in so doing that they succeeded in
removing all doubt, as to who they really are, and what they’re really all about.
First, they called Arizona in favor of Joey B way too early. Then they canceled
Tucker’s continuing expose’ of the unseen January 6 footage. Finally, they succeeded
in getting rid of the one person on their network who called foul on the government
for violating constitutionally guaranteed rights, not just of Conservatives,
but of American citizens in general. People just start to doubt you’re on their
side when you start a pattern of behavior like that.
And so it would appear that keeping Americans
uninformed and stupid is far more important to the elites than is making money.
Carlson exposed the ‘Deep State’ and corporate hypocrisy. He showed us how both
are dedicated to the promoting of anti-American values, and they did it, and
continue to do it, consistently. They don’t care about
viewers, because there are trillions of dollars at stake. Tucker singlehandedly
flipped the Ukraine narrative. And that’s far more expensive than some lost viewers.
Fox
News essentially Drudged themselves. Now they’re just another soon to be
antique fraudcasting network that folks like me no longer pay any attention to.
So maybe this is the new business model used by so
many big companies, one that has it being more important to be woke than to
actually make a profit, although you would think that investors would be more
than a little pissed off. Unless they’re just as woke as are these companies.
And so Fox seems to have joined companies like Anheuser-Busch and Disney in
using the business model that does little more than to alienate their customer
base. Thanks for the lesson that everyone already knows. Most people are pretty
fed up with the cancel culture, from being cancelled or seeing a prominent
figure cancelled and smeared. It is time to “cancel” the culture of the left.
Everyone at Fox deserves to lose their job. The fact
that Hannity and the other corporate losers didn’t stand up for Tucker says it
all. Tucker was the only thing that saved Fox after the 2020 election debacle and
their shameful early calling of Arizona, not to mention their hiring of Paul
Ryan and their turning against President Trump and his voters. It seems to me
that Fox thought itself a bit more popular and beloved than they were. I think
they thought, we rode out O’Reilly’s firing, we can ride this out too. Big
mistake! Report the truth and lose your job! Smear your opponent and get a pay
raise. This is life in the world of ‘journalism’ when elections are hijacked.
Carlson was fired because he used his prime-time platform
to expose the crimes and illicit goings-on of the most powerful men,
corporations and agencies in the world. That’s why he was fired, because he
revealed the truth about big pharma’s toxic injections, Fauci’s deranged
lockdowns, Joey’s police-state surveillance, the expansive deep-state
censorship program, CRT, BLM, ESG, George Floyd, drag-queen children’s hour,
the oddball cult of trangenderism, Ukraine’s dictator-president Zelensky and
all the other pernicious inanities that are being used like a wrecking-ball on
the nation’s moral and historical foundation. Tucker exposed them all.
It’s not about personality.
It’s about the stories Tucker did. His was the highest rated show on all cable
news because of the stories he did. Other hosts followed his lead with similar
stories. By removing Tucker, the message to all remaining hosts is those kinds
of stories are no longer allowed, and they’ve shown they’re willing to remove anyone
who doesn’t get the message. That’s why it wasn’t just the 8pm hour that had a
ratings crash, but all of Fox News. Why bother watching what we think will be
just another censored cable channel. Yes, they might still lean right, but they
will ignore the stories that don’t fit what the bosses want. That’s why I’ll
never go back.
