I didn’t anticipate that this week would start off with the news that Fox News Corp would part ways with Tucker Carlson, one of the network’s biggest liars. Here’s my take on Tucker’s exit from Fox:
I’ve written extensively about the impact that Fox News and its anchors have had on American democracy. If you want to watch/read more, you can do so here:
I’ve read and heard all of your offerings on this matter, everything Fox News..What I believe is required now in this moment is for the entire organization to be shut down dismantled and further legal action taken to remove this cancer from the country. The Murdochs must be stripped of their citizenship if they in fact have it and deported.. The Board of Directors of Fox News are as responsible for all of the lying and gaslighting as Carlson..they must be dealt with as well starting with Paul Ryan..The so called defenders of our Democracy have got to start playing hardball, and right fucking now..Not taking these actions is tantamount to treason..
Thanks, Steve, for this superbly cogent, extensive analysis of the Tucker monster.
PLEASE MAKE A TRANSCRIPT OF THIS BRILLIANT TALK AVAILABLE a.s.a.p.
By the way, Rolling Stone also has a great summary of Carlson and the break-up:

I love how RStone writers, like our Steve Schmidt, don't mince words about the evil, the lies, the lack of integrity of deranged characters like Tucker Carlson.
