Conservatives are outraged after learning that Fox News let host Tucker Carlson go.
“Tucker Carlson Tonight” was Fox’s highest-rated show and the most-watched program in all of cable news.
The news comes after Fox paid $787 million to Dominion Voting Systems in a defamation settlement over claims made by the network following the 2020 election.
Many conservatives see the move as further evidence that Fox is moving farther to the left.
The phone lines were full Monday during the “Todd Starnes Show” as callers said they were canceling their Fox Nation subscriptions and leaving Fox over the Carlson ouster.
The backlash against Fox was evident in comments on the company’s social media posts.
“Fox is dead. Without Tucker, they are CNN,” one person wrote.

“There’s no reason to watch Fox if Tucker is gone!” another person said.

Don Lemon fired by CNN
Tucker Carlson out at Fox just days after Dominion settlement
Dan Bongino out at Fox
Lara Trump out at Fox
Sure seems like there are big things going on behind the scenes
Fox has kept Geraldo Rivera and gotten rid of Tucker Carlson + Dan Bongino. The entire board should be fired for that alone.

It’s not just a coincidence Fox News fired him after he exposed Big Pharma and hosted an amazing interview with our rightful President, Donald J. Trump!
God bless Tucker Carlson!
