Talk about damaging. Turley came on like a grave digging DOJ prosecutor. And there he was, on FOX.<\/p>\n
Ah, but this is not the same FOX it was a few months ago. This is now a news outlet that\u2019s scurried away from MAGA.<\/p>\n
This is a news operation that fired its number one star, Tucker Carlson\u2014knowing the move would torpedo their ratings across the board.<\/p>\n
Had Carlson remained at FOX, his comments on the Trump documents-indictment would certainly have been in defense of the Orange Don.<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
Is it possible FOX ownership knew, in advance, that this documents-indictment was going to be A Big One? They were briefed?<\/p>\n
And part of the reason they dumped Carlson was to keep his defense of Trump off the air?<\/p>\n
Rachel Maddow (MSNBC) is already floating the idea that prosecutors could make a deal with Trump. He escapes conviction if he doesn\u2019t run for the Presidency.<\/p>\n
Clearly, the Democrats are pursuing multiple cases against Trump to achieve that very goal.<\/p>\n
Tucker Carlson was holding the line. He was perceived as Trump\u2019s number-one defender in the American news media.<\/p>\n
How\u2019s this for a FOX jackpot? Rupert Murdoch doesn\u2019t want to hear more chatter about rigged elections. He doesn\u2019t want to hear trumpets with high ratings celebrating Trump on his own network. So he settles the Dominion lawsuit by paying out a few hundred million bucks, promises Dominion Tucker will be gone, fires Tucker, and clears the way for the documents-indictment against Trump to be a banshee screaming success.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a plan. Not a particularly brilliant one. But effective. Not chess. Just a checkers piece jumping. One two three. Done.<\/p>\n
And quite possibly, a few nasty skeletons hidden in the FOX\/Murdoch closet\u2014which could have emerged during the Dominion suit\u2014stay in the dark.<\/p>\n
One other point about Tucker. Night after night on FOX, he was more than willing to talk about rigged elections. Convincingly. Murdoch\u2014and the Democrats\u2014want a clear glide path to victory in 2024. They don\u2019t want a guy with a hundred million viewers standing on the tarmac waving off the landing and forcing the plane to stay in the wind blown sky.<\/p>\n
Which is why, now that Tucker has shown up on Twitter with a new show, FOX is threatening to sue him.<\/p>\n
They still have him under contract, yet they\u2019ve fired him, they\u2019ve taken him off the air, AND they say the contract bars him from launching a new program.<\/p>\n
Sounds a little strange. Sounds like a dog muzzle.<\/p>\n
As in: FOX supersedes the 1st Amendment.<\/p>\n
Sounds like one more layer of bullshit and censorship laid over free speech. But that\u2019s a fashion trend now.<\/p>\n
Every Wokey putz in America has to censor somebody, to keep his membership intact.<\/p>\n
Unless we\u2019re talking about hairy ass tranny drag queen shows for little kids at government schools with a few pedos circulating in the room. THAT\u2019S Constitutional. Must allow that.<\/p>\n
