On Tucker Carlson
by Karl Denninger Market-Ticker.org
So Tucker is no longer with Fox. Reports are that he was told just minutes before Fox made the announcement and, that Fox is paying out the $20 million a year for the balance of his contract although “firing” him, thus he can’t sue as he’s being paid as agreed.
Fine.
It is also reported that Fox will not attempt to enforce any sort of non-compete or “lockout” on his activity. This is probably smart although they likely could, at least through the end of the contract term, since he’s being paid. Whether he could sue and win on that basis if they tried it is unknown but in any event its bad publicity and likely not worth adding fuel to any animosity Tucker might have over the situation.
Plenty of people are trying to play Eye of Sauron on this, but seriously folks: Do you have a single IQ point remaining?
