Good riddance, Tucker Carlson! I'm not a FOX viewer (I don't watch TV at all). But you don't have to watch television to grasp how damaging his lies and disinformation have been to our democracy. Sadly, it likely will not take long for him to surface somewhere else to continue spewing his vitriol. It sure would be interesting to know the real story behind what happened... I've read that a "reliable source" says his departure was not part of the Dominion settlement. But the timing certainly seems more than coincidental. Anyway, there are others at FOX who are no doubt champing at the bit to step into his shoes. We'll soon find out whether FOX was chastened at all by the Dominion decision.

Thank you! Hear hear. Also news breaking this evening indicates as you heard rumor of that Tucker Carlson was let go deliberately, and that it was related to something about a hostile or otherwise creepy work environment and apparently not tied to the Dominion lawsuit settlement. Yikes. -Vanessa
