Here's the sad news:
He never has to work another day in his life, if he decides that's what he wants.
He could retire and have a very good life.
He isn't going to face any consequences for what he did, not even rejection by his fans.

My sources are telling me: Tucker was all set to go live tonight. He probably had plans to talk about the lawsuit and clear his name. Producers were prepping guests and slots of Monday's show. Corporate nixed the idea and Tucker up and quit!
That question came up on Deadline WH. No one knows, but I hope reporters hound McCarthy for answers.pipistrelle wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2023 4:57 pm Wasn’t he the one who got the exclusive McCarthy J6 tourist video? Who inherits that?
Tucker up and quit!
He was fired, or maybe he quit, or maybe his dog was really sick.Rupert Murdoch made the decision to fire Tucker Carlson.

No, wait, it was just a rain drop....
No, because if he quit where's the outrage? He has to be perpetually outraged.

“Carlson, whose contract was renewed in 2021, will be paid out for the rest of his contract, people familiar with the matter said. Carlson is paid about $20 million a year, one of the people said.”
I think Murdoch Sr ordered Fox to shut down the law suit and pay "the ransom money", and requested them to fire the guy who was responsible for the dent in his income / fortune.noblepa wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2023 12:30 pm Does Fox' willingness to fire their highest rated commentator bode ill for Sean Hannity or Laura Ingraham?
Fox and its on-air personalities have long been obsessed with ratings. Firing Carlson was a surprise to me, especially coming this soon. I would have thought that they would have waited a few months so that the firing would not be so easily tied to the Dominion settlement.
First Dan Bongino, now Carlson. Is Lachlan cleaning house?

Fox News Refused To Pay Tucker Carlson Severance After Sudden Firing: ‘Everyone Expects’ Ousted Anchor To Launch Multi-Million Dollar Lawsuit Over Axing
Story by Aaron Johnson • Yesterday 6:40 PM
Fox told Tucker Carlson’s lawyers he was fired “with cause" — related to the ex-producer’s lawsuit which claimed sexism, antisemitism, and harassment, RadarOnline. com has learned. The “with cause” label means the company will likely seek to avoid severance payments to Carlson. Most executive contracts contain language stipulating different scenarios of how their separation from the company would be treated financially. Fox has a history of paying out its talent and executives, with examples including Bill O’Reilly and Roger Ailes.
“Times have changed. The days of a golden parachute when confronted with allegations like this are over," a source told RadarOnline.com hours after Carlson's firing was made public. "If Tucker fights — which everyone expects he will — Fox will dig in. There will be no scenario under the sun in which he gets a massive windfall against the backdrop of sexism, antisemitism, and harassment. They can’t reward that kind of behavior. Fox has learned its lesson from scandals of the past.” Carlson has not yet indicated if he will contest the “with cause” claim.
