Well, he did cost them almost $1 billion.

I feel like he's worth more than that

No way. I used to think that way about O'Reilly, but they were able to plug Tucker in and not miss a beat. They can get any MAGA YouTube personality and pay like $100k and get the same numbers in that time slot. The people watching aren't going to change the channel.

I doubt we'll get the full story behind this move. I wonder where Tucker will reemerge. I'm sure they paid him a boatload of money in consideration of a robust non-disparagement agreement.

Crossfire reboot is my hope and have Jon Stewart come on and wreck him in person again

They'll probably try to shove that Jesse guy into Tucker's slot. Hell maybe even Greg Gutfeld.

Neither of them would miss a beat.

Odds this relates to him calling trump a huge piece of lard or a sexual harassment claim by a young male staffer?  Or both?

And yes he can be replaced easily.  Crying all evening because you can't crank it to M&ms is not a major talent

They can write off the settlement and reduce their taxes. They also will likely get a fair bit of the settlement amount covered by insurance.

Very possible

I think it can be the principle (if they have them, which is money) of the thing, even if it's covered you eff with the network and it's prestige, you get the metaphorical horns

"Prestige" lol. FWIW, one of the popular conservative tabloids is reporting that a "source" has told it the decision was made because of Tucker's internal comments (revealed through litigation) badmouthing Fox management. Sounds plausible enough, but could just be speculation.

Is the settlement sealed? Is it possible that this was part of the settlement? Possible move to potentially offer them some cover in the smartmatic lawsuit?

I don't think he would do well at all.
