    We all know there will never be another Rush. I like Clay and Buck. Tucker needs to be seen and heard. A podcast is the way to go.

    I'm not sure he can do much of anything until the remaining 18 months of his contract run out. That's why I think Fox fully expected to take a financial hit on this (or the establishment is giving them stipends) because this was a political hit and not a business decision.

    My understanding is that Tucker had a "non-interference" clause in his contract. If he was supposed to have full editorial control of his show, then Fox is going to have some problems. Tucker wasn't in on the Dominion case. January 6th actual footage, the Pfizer covid lies and the Ukraine debacle were what got him fired and he is more correct on all of these than Murdoch and the government. If Fox wants to lose another big case on contractual interference, then go ahead.

    Let's hope so. We need Tucker for 2024
