What is it about the Fox News Channel that makes it so disturbing?

good reminder that those who we think "say the quiet part out loud" sometimes actually don't!!

I am sure Fox management was shocked, shocked that Tucker would say such things.

White people fight like this

Maybe they were upset about the part where he expresses remorse.

you know that crazy high pitched laugh he did turn his show sometimes? the one that made his whole body convulse? the one that everyone said made him look like a psychopath? well, what if....

now i’m just thinking of the simpsons episode where the stand-up comic is doing the “white people drive like this” bit

So sad (gift link, read away)

EXCLUSIVE: Tucker Carlson tried to push out Fox News' mega-powerful PR chief. It backfired spectacularly -- and helped set the stage for his own ouster.https://t.co/Mmjm4x9Z1P

Hahah he tried to get rid of BRIGANTI? That's like someone trying to oust Coco Schwab as Bowie's key assistant from 1976 on -- never gonna happen.

"I am bigger than this network."

"You thought."

is it good when the people youre trying to persuade laugh at you

In some cases, executives laughed off Carlson’s attempt to get Briganti fired, assuring him and others that Briganti was not going anywhere anytime soon.

Briganti “hates all the talent,” the former Fox News commentator says. “She was so disgusted by the level of fucked up idiots who work there, in her opinion, and had to clean up their messes and their overblown egos.”

tough but fair

What makes this all the more entertaining is that there's that third factor of the producer who felt pressured by Fox's lawyers in the Dominion discovery process and has since filed a separate suit, releasing snippets trashing Tucker further.

Given the way she speaks to the press on behalf of people she hates, I'm genuinely curious if there's anyone on earth Briganti likes, or if she's one of those uniquely NYC rich corporate types who genuinely loathes all of humanity, a character straight out of a Ballard novel.

Didn't Ailes hire her directly? Game recognize game.

For fun!

I think Gutfeld may be my least favorite of these 4 shitbags, just perpetually smarmy and smirky
