    Apparently she's staying but is being dropped from prime time.

    Word is that Hannity will be the Carlson replacement.

    Gee, it's the same news data wise.
    Wonder what's missing.
    Wonder what magical mystery ingredient the racist-thanksgiving-uncle audience is finding lacking...

    OMG.

    He had to have been joking right?

    https://twitter.com/therecount/status/1667143475307880450

    Right? I mean obviously not with his ‘point’ that Messi needs to learn English, I can believe Kilmead is dumb enough to believe that. But the comparison to David Beckham. His statement that David Beckham learned to speak English when he came over here to play. That had to be a joke… Right?

    Now that Fox has hit Carlson with a C&D letter threatening him with legal action for violating his "no-compete" clause he's got an interesting choice: whether to fight it and perhaps blaze a new trail for worker's rights in the fight against no competes or just knuckle under. Sounds like a lose-lose to me... :corn:

    ETA: or is it a Kobayashi Maru? :spock:

    FOX's loss of Carlson has not diminished their ability to perform rigorous, cutting-edge journalism that speaks truth to power:

    A somewhat shitty article on the number of views Tucker's Twitter videos have gotten. I say that it's shitty, because it points out that the metrics everybody uses are wrong but doesn't do anything to correct them. So, they'll point out that the numbers Twitter publishes are based on the number of people who scroll past a video, while the other numbers from outside groups, count the numbers if a person actually watched a second or two of a video, while Neilsen numbers (which we don't seem to have for Twitter), require someone to watch a video for at least a minute or more. It's broadly bullshit, but we do see indications that Tucker's popularity varies wildly over the videos he's published.
