HANNITY

As I indicated yesterday he has taken a hit by not having Tucker’s huge audience just stay on for him. It turns out that he’s now down to 1.3 million viewers which is where Kilmeade is at. Tucker carried the night time lineup for Fox on his back and now it’s indisputable!

Listen I always watched Tucker but would skip Hannity if there was something else that I followed on. Tucker was riveting, even though he was occasionally wrong as I have ranted about previously, but was always must see. Hannity was always if there’s nothing else on.

TUCKER?

I have waited to see how things shake out but I still have no idea. One day they say that Tucker and Fox parted ways amicably. The next day they say Tucker was fired for cause and won’t get paid for his contract and he was clearly removed from his job involuntarily but was he fired or did they keep him under contract so he couldn’t go anywhere else and compete with Fox. I saw an article today that said with 95% certainty that it was the latter.

I agree because Fox has a history of firing but not really by keeping people off the air but paying their contracts so they could keep them from competing with Fox. I think that’s what is going on here. Listen OAN has already indicated that they are willing to pay Tucker $25 million a year to move his program there. And I’m sure that Newsmax will come up with something comparable. Tucker’s audience goes with him wherever he goes.

And just in case you don’t know, Fox stock has taken a big hit and and its viewership has cratered. Kilmeade dropped from Tucker’s 3.5 million viewers to 2.9 million on Monday. Not too bad but it has steadily decreased until it’s now at 1 point something that is lower than someone on CNN or MSNBC I don’t remember which and Hannity’s numbers have also fallen. They’re still good but declining. People watched Tucker and stayed on to watch Hannity. Now they’re not watching Kilmeade and so may be watching something else and don’t flip back to see Hannity. From my perspective if you watch Hannity twice a week you pretty much get everything he has to offer.

The other interesting thing is that Eric Bolling, who has the 8pm slot on Newsmax went from 150K viewers to over 500K viewers with Tucker’s departure. The leftist Murdock kids are willing to destroy Fox News to silence someone who exposed their false narrative crap. They are really upset because Tucker exposed the J6 crap and it’s interesting that McCarthy gave the tapes to Tucker not Fox News.

And the idiot known as Geraldo got destroyed today when he I guess tweeted about his hatred for Tucker especially because he wouldn’t go along with the lefts bs about J6. People said things like you’re an idiot. The tapes show Ray Epps and others inciting violence and fomenting the violence at the Capitol, not Trump.

Btw the lawyers defending J6 defendants have now identified 80 plus people, thanks to finally getting access to the tapes, that are either federal agents or federal plants and are demanding further discovery.

JUST A REALITY CHECK

I’m watching a discussion where mothers are being sued for defamation for complaining about basically pornography being made available in school libraries for children of any age and it reminded me of the difference between now and back in my day.

Back when I was in elementary school books that you could check out were limited by your grade. Not pornography but just books they thought were beyond the comprehension of younger children. They had to give me a waiver to check out anything I wanted.

Now you can check out pornography at any age.

QUICKIE

There are a lot of things I will probably comment on tomorrow but the one thing I did want to comment on is something that no one else has and that is that if you watch Magoo’s press conference with the South Korean president and much has been made of Magoo having the questions and answers before hand, but the thing that struck me and no one else is that if you bother to look Magoo has an earpiece and a wire running from it down across his chest to who knows where. Clearly he had realtime input from his handlers.

PENMANSHIP

I can’t believe that the left is claiming Magoo’s penmanship in his feeble roll out means he’s somehow the right person to lead the country. I learned penmanship in catholic school and I could probably come close if I really had to but it would be a struggle. Do any of you actually believe that brain dead and motorally challenged Magoo actually wrote that. He can’t even walk, especially upstairs. His motor skills are almost nonexistent. Let’s see him do it live!

I just tried it and it wasn’t hard at all. Magoo I will challenge you anytime and any where to a cursive writing challenge!

BTW

I also saw today that Tucker negotiated a new contract in 2021 that pays him $20 million per year and while I didn’t see how long that contract was for but I got to believe at least five years and Fox has said that they will honor the contract and pay him under the contract. That means Tucker will get probably $70 million between now and 2026 for doing nothing. You know me. I would sit on my ass and just enjoy life. Tucker is set for life but unlike me, he will undoubtedly continue to pontificate on some platform.

ICYMI

Today the DNC announced that there will be no debates in the Dem primary. Clearly they are all in on a brain dead candidate and don’t want to expose him to actually having to answer questions from RFK Jr. and Marianne Faithful or whatever her name is.

And I will bet that they will come up with some excuse, Covid not being legitimate anymore, to keep Magoo from debating Trump. They know they are trying to protect their weekend at Bernie’s candidate. Magoo couldn’t even announce his candidacy live. He put out a video and though he was apparently speaking most of it was off camera. Want to bet how many takes it took to put together a three minute video?

And most notably, he didn’t address anything he had supposedly accomplished or what he was going to do other continue to destroy the country. He needs to finish it. His entire message was Trump and MAGA republicans are evil.

TUCKER

Here’s the best thing I saw today about what really happened.

The other thing I saw which I think was ridiculous and it may actually be in the above link but was in other places was that Tucker couldn’t go to newsmax because their audience was much smaller than that at Fox. Guess what morons. The reason that Fox had a huge audience at 8pm was Tucker. If he went to newsmax at 8pm, newsmax would have that audience. I would certainly go there to watch and I’m pretty sure that Tucker’s 4.5 million viewers would go there too. These idiots are apparently clueless about reality.

TUCKER AND LEMON

As I’m sure you know Tucker and Fox parted ways and Lemon was fired.

Now I’m surprised in both cases because I never thought that Fox would eliminate its cash cow. That’s like cutting off your nose to spite your face. And the mental midget known as Don Lemon thought he was bulletproof no matter how stupid or disgusting in the workplace because he is black and gay. No way CNN would fire such an intersectional person. (Btw I don’t know if I’m using that term correctly and don’t really care.). But he was wrong. Apparently checking the right boxes doesn’t protect you eventually from your stupidity and arrogance.

I have no idea why Tucker and Fox parted ways. They didn’t say and have not mentioned it on the air. Most think it has something to do with Dominion, but if that was true then both Hannity and Ingraham would have to be let go also and that would be a monetary hit Fox couldn’t take. So I don’t really have a clue what’s going on. Tucker has been controversial for years. Why now? We’re going to have to see what really went on, but whatever Tucker will be just fine. I would love to see him go to Newsmax in the same time slot and destroy Fox but he probably has a noncompete clause in his contract and/or separation agreement.
