I'm done with Fox. And I canceled Foxnation. Screw them.
Run redneck run!
That's a good thing. :) Better to have other truthful networks at the top and let Fox News rot in Hell. Thank you
@@palmereldritch_6669 Run fuck boy run
I don’t know how corporate media lasted this long but I’m glad people are starting to see it for what it is.
I’m glad you said corporate media because that is exactly what it is corporate media.
It's being propped up artificially. Just look at the "news section" here on youtube. Are people actually searching for those channels?
We still enjoy fox an the staff
50% drop from previous 4 weeks isn't a 'slump'; that's a nose dive.
You don't honestly think they didn't know that would happen?
@Blooze Girl
Of course they did just goes to show you how serious they were about getting rid of him.
They are arrogant people and they underestimate their audience 😂 we will not come back!
@@donnnajacobs3248
Calm down, they will still lie to you to get ya riled up, but it won't be as salacious.
But; if going a little more centrist, that leaves you out to dry, brings in exponential advertising revenue...you won't be missed.
Can you see NOW how played you all were?
@@StudioDaVeed funny coming from the Presidential Masters in liars following! Not upset, hello I don’t care 🤷♂️ if they rot on their stupid. As for lies hello we’re accustom to them from your President so we spot them miles away. Oh maybe you’re afraid to speak truth or you will be next? Don’t worry 😉 Fox is screwed by themselves.
I've severed all ties with Fox News, never to return.
“Severed all ties…”, lol. You mean you stopped watching it.
@@rayray8687unsub, as well. No more book purchases. Stop listening to hannity on the radio. There are lots of ties besides watching. Fox even promotes in-person events.
Tucker was the only reason I watched it.
He was the best liar on fox.
Have you seen the latest open-mike videos of Tucker insulting his viewership? He lied to you, insulted you, conned you and sucked you in for ratings. You're going to miss that? Don't worry - you can rely on Trump to do the same.
I went to Newsmax, OAN, Epoch Times, and The Daily Wire. Goodbye FOX!
Until they too get sued for lying?
I can't believe anyone still watches MSM or network news at all.
Im embarrassed to say that I didnt disconnect from the mainstream news until Tucker was released. People should read the twitter files #20......you're just getting propaganda fed to you. Im surprised that Tucker got away with his debate/opinion/truth for so long. I am also a bit dismayed that Congress is stuck on pre-Elon twitter when this government operation (twitter files #20) is like a chinese balloon hovering directly over them.
Agreed
They all are CROOKED.
Lol, I totally agree. But here we are- watching the crap Forbes puts out. I've been really liking Redacted with the Morris's lately. I really enjoy how Forbes is using the CCP style videos more often...
Agree. The United States has been corrupted by the media since obama changed that law.
Fox News can go the way of Bud Light.
So do we add Tucker Carlson to the long list of things Trump destroyed? As the famous book title states 'Everything Trump Touches Dies'. Trump steaks, Trump University, eight bankruptcies, shuttered four casinos, Trump water, Trump airlines, whatever that football league was...
So, you want Kid Rock to shoot them with his AR?
@@lastjob2011 Ha, I was thinking that exact same thing today. Tucker can thank Trump and his Big Lie for being jobless. Toxic indeed!
@@lastjob2011 **Mrs. lastjobbie,**

@@lastjob2011 But you would rather be sniffed by joe
Kilmeade just isn't going to cut it in Tucker's slot. Fox signed the death warrant for cable news.
No, losing 787.5 million dollars in a lawsuit for peddling bullshit was the death knell. Lawsuits destroyed big tobacco, and they will destroy the Fox News tabloid garbage spigot as well. Good riddance.
Fox Propaganda had its lies exposed. Let them rot in hell.
@@Raider19D No they didn't. Fraud occurred, no real investigation was allowed so there is no way to prove it when the narrative is controlled. We have not had a fair election since before 2000. Its why I stopped voting over 20 years ago after the congressional hearing on electronic voter fraud. Fox just trying to cover their asses for not being in the "club" with the other moronic democrats.
Best part is he was photographed with his wife after the firing and he looks to be having the time of his life. Fox tanking with viewers will make his smile just a little bigger.
Weird that you would follow him around to see what he is doing
They probably have to keep paying him while he's under contract!
Pretty sure Fox knew this would happen. Not a surprise.
@@GodWeenSatan others follow him around, then we get to see the pictures. I know you're not that stupid, but you're trying your best to change my mind

FOX - "This will pass over and we'll slowly get our viewers back" Keep thinking that.
I don't think they care much either way.
Boycott Fox...
Another one down the tubes, along with Bud light.

That's great. Trump has ruined the GOP, and Fox. Just like him, and you're all right by him. Jeffrey Epstein supplied the 15 year old girl to Trump. Her vid is on CZcams. One of the most disgusting videos ever! Very graphic. Five 'encounters'

Murdoch is part of the unelected uniparty of elites. Fox News has never been anything more than controlled opposition. They're just pissy because Tucker Carlson pointed this out. That's why he got fired.

I only watched Fox for Tucker. After he was fired, I put Fox News on the “do not recommend” setting on CZcams and I unsubscribed to Fox Nation. No thanks!
That’s honestly the first time I’ve ever seen the name or face of Chris Hayes, and he’s their top competitor?
Frankly I’d never heard of Tucker Carlson either until he came under fire for promoting the ‘stolen election’ garbage. That’s when I first heard of that pillow guy too, lol.

This is like when Project Veritas fired James O'Keefe. Where he goes, I go!

Getting fired from Fox is a badge of honor that only makes Tucker more credible.
Toxic Tucker has been fired from three major networks (FOX News, CNN and MSNBC).
Who will be the fourth to fire him: TASS, Pravda, CGTN, ONA, RT, Truth-Social?
More credible? He was one of the talking heads that caused Fox to cough up $787 Million to Dominion for lying to their audience. And you say he's credible?
"Just say that the election was stolen, and leave the rest to me and the Republican congressmen."
Donald John Trump.
Tucker's hero
It makes Tucker a liability and one who got fired from all major media outlets. This gives him the mark of cain. He is a great entertainer and never a real journalist. May he live to his failure forever.
Whatever.
God Bless Tucker Carlson. A True American Patriot and Hero .

Bye bye Fox News

Tucker Carlson is going on to bigger and better things whereas Fox News, like ex CNN anchor, Don Lemon are just going to cry

Definitely a 🤡🌎

That's backwards! But that's what Fox has done to you!
I Love This! Rock on Tucker, we will follow you wherever you choose!
Another mindless zombie 🧟♂️ is walking the streets 🙄
Tucker’s popularity is not only limited in U.S but also many European countries and Japan , Korea too .
I hope he let whole world to know truth behind the most dangerous times in human history.
From California
Hate is popular world wide, it's true.
Philippines too !
"I hope he let whole world to know truth" are you forgetting the part where he was fired to due constantly lying on air and getting fox into hot water
Those of us that were committed viewers of Fox News have noticed the changing of the guard for quite some time. Letting go of Tucker was the straw that broke the camel's back for most. It is Fox News that wants a more centered approach to news, slipper-slope if you ask me but they didn't. In fact, they apparently don't know who their viewership is, and that in itself is cause for concern.
The Murdochs don't care for the viewers WATCHING, they care for the viewers, they WANT to watch.
They know exactly who their viewers are. That's why Tucker lied to them and said Trump won the election but Dominion stole it away. That's what Fox viewers want to see. They don't want to see facts, they never have.
No its because the had to pay a fine for the defamation case because Tucker has a big mouth that got them in trouble
@@GodWeenSatan would you prefer that he didn't tell the truth? Standing and precedence are both killers of democracy. You're like the guy that runs his car on empty and then wonders why he ran out of gas.
Stop calling it Fox "News". It's far from the truth.
Leave us hope and pray that their advertising sales follows a similar slump.
RIP FOX regards from the Netherlands.
Most viewers only watched them because of Tucker Carlson.
I watched Maria Bartiromo, Waters, and a couple of others but, the organization as a whole is just feeding crap now. I follow the one I like elsewhere. Tuckers first video away from FOX, 22 million views and counting.
They don't want those viewers!! I don't blame them!
I bet Fox never pays a dime to Dominion
Dominion and Fox have Blackrock as major share holders. Both above 40%. So Blackrock sued itself and fired Tucker.
You lose.
I bet a train wreck nov 2024 that sets off civil war, because republicans plan to fight the voters and outcome
That's a bet I will happily take on.
I am glad to see low ratings. Hopefully these station full of liars & creeps will shut down altogether
I hope that Fox News dries up and blows away. Stand tall Tucker.
Tucker was the only reason I would free stream the FOX mess, Ratchet Jaw Hannity was the turn it off now point.
Yeah the guy was hilarious
Ha. Yeah. The insufferable Sean Hannity with his nearly incoherent spewing of parenthetical boilerplate sentence fragments is more a trial than an attraction. If I wanted to hear an ex-sports announcer babble about politics for the sake of a good laugh, I'd spend a few moments watching the glaring, gynecomastic ,Theodore Oldverminn perform one of his shouting chimp routines.
Carlson's great virtue was that he was able to accurately characterize the activities and aims of the organisms of the left, along with their crony capitalist enablers and masters. Obviously the "insect overlords" and their pink haired sexually perverse sinecure collecting flunkies, did not much like having their veils pulled back.
When an employer dumps their best most productive employee you know you have situation that has been poorly handled. It will all come out. Tucker needs to keep moving on and the rest of us have to turn our backs on Fix News.
It has been Fix News for many years now
He will look back in losing his job at Fox as one of the best things that ever happened in his life
I know we do!
God bless you Tucker continue being honest and true
🙏♥️🇺🇸🙏
you must be confused, he was fired for constantly lying, which got fox news into huge trouble

May Fox and Bud Light rest in peace.

Strange how we publicly move together on so much yet the election results very much suggest otherwise...
Yes! Something’s not right!
Yea there are a lot of crazy liberals running around.

So well said ..
Tucker was the real deal! The truth will prevail.
Lachlan and the rest of the Murdoch family needs to get the message: Tucker is the network, not them. Just hold the stock and stay out of personnel decisions. They are a bunch of rich kids who have poor judgment. Risk vs reward, my @$$! Advertising isn't worth much without impressions, and 2-3X the competitors nightly is a no-brainer for companies.
They don't care. If all else fails, they'll just sell and walk away. Same with ABI, and Norfolk Southern for that matter.
God bless Tucker he is a hero for telling the truth
sucker Carlson said out of his mouth he lie when he's cornered, those are his words not mine 🤣🤣🤣
Poor zombie 🧟♀️! Best to go find a brain 🧠.
he was fired for constantly lying, he lied his way into a lawsuit, and the company feared that if they kept him he would keep spreading lies and hence more lawsuits
A bud lite moment for fox. Understand your customer, first rule of effective marketing. I hope many more of these esg corporations bite the dust.
Let's not forget that FOX had the vaccine mandate as well. Fox doesn't stand for freedom. They say they do but show otherwise.
Why? Is it because they have Caitlyn Jenner and Laura Ingraham?
Hopefully all “media” that’s mainstream goes bye bye
I refuse to watch Fox and urge everyone with any integerity to boycott these bullies!
Tune into Newsmax
better yet start reading
Tucker is a handsome man.
Fox News is no longer on my channel grid lineup. Stupid move Rupert.

I love Brian as far as mornings and fill in while anchors are on vacation and his Saturday show but 8pm. Weekly is Tuckers spot no one can fill that on permanent basis. And don't forget that he's on fox Nation .that's a soon to be customer prescribers dropping as well because his shows will be wiped out and I was looking forward to seeing those. Wish Jesse, Sean, and Laura would leave to even Greg these ppl. Should all stage a walk out in protest of Tuckers firing. If did that then Fox would have to sale or become CNN+ and hire leftist idiotic anchors.
Entirely predictable. His audience will follow him wherever he goes.
That is nice, seems like Tucker Carlson is going on to bigger and better things, whereas Fox News, like Don Lemon, ex CNN anchor, are going to start crying
Tucker Carlson has just increased his popularity.
Glory to Tucker Carlson.
Fox = CNN = MSMBC
Rip Fox
Go Woke Go Broke!
Fox was going down hill fast. I was only Watching Tucker's show and Dan Bongino. Deleted all fox book marks and apps from all my device's.
Hurry up and get your own show we’re waiting
Fox news basically screwed themselves when they accepted the 2020 presidential election results and became woke in not all but in some ways. Canceled my subscription and no longer have Fox on the tv. I have moved on to Newsmax. 🇺🇸
There will always be internal matters of one kind or another. Who and what viewers appreciate and commit to matters. Tucker told the truth and should be shown much respect for his contributions. Tucker was on topic. Cannot accept Cult Woke Pronoun Sensitivity and make a difference today. Bring Tucker Back.
"Tucker told the truth" are you forgetting the part where all of this happened because he was caught continuously lying on air and it got fox into hot water, so they decided to drop him due to his constant lying?
He who laughs last, laughs best
Are they just trying to get a figure of how many people "WON'T" vote dem? Hummm
Fox pulled a Budweiser
I watched Hannity and Ingram, because I watched Tucker at 8...now there's no point.
The people know Tucker is an epic truth teller. We will follow him over Fox News.
Poor zombie 🧟♂️. Go hunt for some brains 🧠
yeah but he was fired for constantly lying, what makes you think he tells the truth? he was literally caught lying a million times and now it costed him and fox millions of dollars
Tucker was the only reason I watched fox
I'll never watch Fox news again
no more fox for me, i did not watch it since they fired him . done
I like tucker because he criticizes the uni-party in D.C
The billion dollar mistake!
Where is Tucker’s new platform?
The NFL Bud light now Fox news RIP
Go woke go broke.
I bet the AOC’s of the woke world are happy!
I already switched to Newsmax
News Max!
We're all laughing with you Tucker, even though Murdoch doesnt need the money its still great to see whats happening to fox. LET'S GO FOX TV.
I don't know what conversations took place behind closed doors, but the Murdochs' must have known the fallout would be this severe. So ... why?
It's simple, They don't care about the money, or the brand, or the network. They want to be accepted by their liberal New York friends again, and they'll pay whatever it takes to get back with the "in" crowd. They don't care about you. They never did. Their coverage of election night proved it. Fox has been the "controlled opposition" for over a decade, stop listening to them. Tucker was the one bright spot in that whole place, and in typical communist fashion, the "head that sticks up, gets chopped off".
Yess love to see cable take $$$$ loss when they deserve it
knowing fox news iz not happy makez me happy
One small step for America one giant leap for democracy!!
FTC
Good
Why would Fox think that Brian Kilmeade will fill Tucker's shoes? Kilmead's opinions are contrary to Tuckers about the war in Ukraine, about Trump, about Jan 6, and so on. The people that tuned in to watch Tucker Carlson are not interested in watching Kilmeade or anyone like him who bends with the political winds.
Ugh.
I typically listen via Bluetooth as I drive. Obviously this just wasted my time.
Blessings come unto those who hold onto truth..❤
yeah, tucker constantly lied to his viewers on fox news so now is a great time in the media for truth to spread
Good! I hope the sink to the bottom!

He's the best in cable TV so let's fire him. Makes no dang sense.
