In a stunning announcement today the network and extremist talking head severed ties. Why? No one knows for sure at this point.
Media experts believe the sudden separation of a top host and the network has come about because of the upcoming Smartmatic lawsuit.
Murdock is trying to cut his losses with Dominion by toning down the lies in anticipation of Smartmatic picking up where Dominion left off.
That parting will not slow down Carlson's lies, racism, and homophobia because right-wing outlets will be chomping on the bit to hire him. Nothing like a flamethrower for the rabid base to get viewership.
I predict he'll go with OAN, Newsmax, or a personal podcast. Maybe more than one of these outlets. He has loyal MAGA nuts willing to follow him into the jaws of hell if necessary.
Whatever Carlson does you can bet he'll continue to double down on misinformation and outright lies. Murdock knows this. So, their parting is no shock to close observers.
As it stands, sadly right-wing outlets are profitable because there's a segment of America that believes their lies and conspiracy theories.
