I think CNN is way off the mark with this Paul Begala interview. I don’t for one minute think Carlson was fired for disagreeing with management.

Cassandra,

@Karoli
I think the most likely story I've seen is that the evidence that came out of the Dominion suit included smoking guns for the suit about a hostile work environment on his show. But I still don't understand the timing. That must have come out earlier.

    @CassandraZeroCovid I don’t think that was it either. I’m not sure any of us know the real reason but I’m looking hard at the shareholder lawsuits.

    lavndrblue,

    @Karoli I think it was part of the Dominion suit agreement. The question I have is why Don Lemon (CNN) was fired on the same day in much the same manner.

    @lavndrblue I don’t think the settlement agreement mandated that. But I do think they saw him as a huge liability.

    lavndrblue,

    @Karoli
    I agree! I think deals were made…

    @lavndrblue @Karoli I am curious about this too. @brooklynmarie posted a recent article about problems Don Lemon had with displaying misogynistic behavior towards co-workers. I suspect this played a roll in his firing today. And if the firing was about Lemon rightly pushing back against Vivek Ramaswamy's on-air lies about Black history? Whoo boy.

    @chargrille @lavndrblue @brooklynmarie I want to know about that too.

    @gulovsen I 100% agree. The shareholder lawsuits are the most fraught for Rupert and Lachlan.

    @Karoli MSNBC kind of danced around that also. And even more ridiculous - speculated that Fox would change their ways!

    You're far too cynical. This is easily as plausible a story as Elon's rocket was meant to explode

    AbortTheGQPNOW,

    @Karoli With more lawsuits coming, this is an "act" of good faith. The walls will never tumble down. But FOX is hurtin' for certain.
