Tucker Carlson Was Pushed Out by Rupert Murdoch

The decision to fire Tucker Carlson came straight from Fox Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch, the Los Angeles Times reports.

“Carlson’s exit is related to the discrimination lawsuit filed by Abby Grossberg, the producer fired by the network last month… Carlson’s senior executive producer Justin Wells has also been terminated.”

“Murdoch is also said to be concerned over Carlson’s coverage of the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, in which the host has promoted the conspiracy theory that it was provoked by government agents.”
