It’s a sad day for Fox News after the network recently announced that it had cut ties with one of its biggest personalities, Tucker Carlson. The news was shocking, to say the least, and has many people wondering why the network would make such a move.
Journalist Megyn Kelly, who recently had her own show on Fox News, weighed in on the situation and said it was a “terrible move” by the network. Kelly believes that this move was not part of the network’s recent $800 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems, and she believes that Carlson’s departure is not related to that.
During her Sirius XM podcast, Kelly said: “This is a terrible move by Fox and it’s a great thing for Tucker Carlson. I don’t know what drove Fox News to make this decision and it was clearly Fox News’ decision because they are not letting him say goodbye. That’s my supposition.”
Good for Tucker. Trust me, he doesn’t need them. https://t.co/NjFqqsIV4q

Kelly also believes that Fox News “overcorrected” by covering the “bulls*** claims about Dominion” as though they were plausible. She added that Carlson was “one of the few” that went on the air and disputed the claims.
It appears that Fox News made a huge mistake by getting rid of Carlson. The network has been under fire lately for its biased reporting and many have been asking for a change in the network’s attitude. This move may have been a way for the network to show that it is making a change, but it appears that it backfired.
The loss of Carlson is a big blow to Fox News and it will be interesting to see how the network moves forward from here. It’s clear that Fox News has lost a valuable asset and it may take some time for the network to recover from this move.
As for Carlson, Kelly believes that he will be better off without Fox News. She said: “I firmly believe Tucker will be better off. I think these cable networks are dinosaurs … getting out under the thumb of the big corporate management is a blessing. It is a blessing and I know he’s smart enough to know that.”
It’s clear that Fox News made a huge mistake by getting rid of Carlson. The network has been under fire lately for its biased reporting and many have been asking for a change in the network’s attitude. Unfortunately, this move may have done more harm than good. Carlson was one of the few voices of reason on the network and now he is gone.
The violent leftist agenda has become increasingly popular in recent years and it’s important to have voices like Carlson’s to counter that. It’s unfortunate that Fox News has chosen to get rid of Carlson and it will be interesting to see how the network moves forward from here.
