They're not firing their highest-rated star, people.

They're hoping the "vacation" will give enough breathing room for sponsors to come back. That or MyPillow will just buy up all the airtime.

He's going to take a vacation to avoid the heat, then he'll resurface in month or so as part of the Trump campaign or Trump News Network.

I think the explanation that he got a positive test this weekend makes the sudden vacation make a lot more sense.

Twitter comments are just lol. Like there's NOOOOOOTHING suspicious about Fridays story breaking, only for his next appearance on Monday announcing a long planned, but completely unpublicized vacation. I always plan my vacations Tuesday-Friday, that way I don't have that cumbersome 9 day vacation you get with sandwiching weekends.

He says 4 days right? Hopefully that means the higher ups are having a meeting in the next few days about his future. 😐

Typical Fox News, bust out the "long-planned vacation" excuse when they need to take someone off the air for a few weeks to let the heat die down.

Did it for O'Reilly, Hannity, Pirro, Carlson...

Put it on ya calendars; gonna defend bow tie bigot...

...its not as if his show is this alternate universe self serving dimension; they are all fox employees. Whatever Tucker's responsibility in this is also really HR's, his boss, etc. Obviously when I say 'responsibility' I don't mean actually caring about the bigoted shit, that's Fox's bread and butter. But hiring someone dumb enough to get caught. Why is tucker serving detention on his lonesome?

He can't be racist without his head writer. He doesn't have original and exciting racist thoughts of his own, just really pedestrian racist platitudes that no one's interested in.

It's to take the heat off after his racist writer was outed. Pretty obvious. Just say that's what it is

Yeah, this is just a break so the whole thing can blow over. Tucker getting COVID would be too lenient for this fuckface. Hopefully he'll find suffering and misery at some point in his life. It's doubtful, but one can hope he gets what he deserves.

I do like his comment on the staff writer. What he did was bad but it had no impact on the show and actually you're all bad, shame on you.

Not really. The guy flat out said immigrants would make the US poorer and dirtier. He's used dog whistles, sure, but he's pretty damn blatant with the white supremacism. I guess maybe he finally lost enough advertisers that the network doesn't feel like subsidizing his political aspirations, but I really don't get how having a racist writer on staff gets him in trouble with Fox when being a racist himself hasn't.



OK, sure. Clearly Carlson is a racist. I don't see what any of this has to do with him getting 'heat' for hiring another racist. At least from anyone who didn't already think he was a piece of shit.
Because he uses the old "I didn't say it in those exact words therefore you are misrepresenting what i said to make me sound racist" defence, whereas the writers posts were in those exact words.

Hopefully his vacation takes him right into the middle of the damn Sun.

I know it's wishful thinking, but if he never returned to being on the air, it would only be seen as a good thing by most people.
