How could a no compete even work, talking 1st amendment here.

I don't think 1st Amendment applies here since it's not the Gov imposing a no compete. Besides, in private business you sign the contract then those are the terms you agreed to, but there are limitations.

I don't think any of this applies to Tucker anyway since Fox terminated the contract.

I read somewhere that Tucker had retained a lawyer. I assume they are going through his contract with a fine tooth comb, potentially for a lawsuit for damages if Fox acted without cause and to advise Tucker of any contractual limitations.

I think we may not hear a lot from Tucker until that is resolved, but I doubt that silence is due to any no-compete clause, IF they failed to show cause. If it's true that they are buying out his contract, that seems to be a big tell. Truth is none of us knows how his contract reads, so we're all speculating.

Bet everyone is chomping at the bit to be the first to interview him.

Most of the shows there are silly. There

I believe his non-compete clause only applied if he left voluntarily. I read that somewhere and can't find it now. With the termination hes free to do as he pleases.

he kinda did leave voluntarily, they agreed to terms of his departure.

I guess only time will tell, If hes not back on the air in a month, I'll be disappointed. i look forward to seeing what he has to say about the next presidential race

his contract is still in force, Reportedly they are paying him for the next two years, Im surprised Tucker didn't have an attorney AND a agent to look over any contract he may have had with FOX. I suspect the next place he lands, he will have an iron clad contract

Use, under duress, as a middle name when you have to sign your name.
They just look to see if you scribbled. LOL

"Who better to weigh in on the Tucker Carlson/Fox News drama than some of the cable news network’s biggest, former stars? In this clip, Glenn speaks to both Bill O’Reilly and Megyn Kelly about Tucker Carlson leaving the network. They both provide DIFFERENT theories as why he and Fox News parted ways. Plus, O’Reilly and Kelly discuss with Glenn where this leaves Fox News moving forward and Carlson’s possible, next steps…"

Tucker can make more $$$$$ going on his own .. and still being Tucker .. with no holds barred ..

“When we see the few truth-tellers who are the stars of their organizations jettisoned – Tucker Carlson from Fox News, Matt Taibbi from Rolling Stone, Glenn Greenwald from The Intercept, James O’Keefe from Project Veritas… we must face the fact that there is an organized conspiracy to suppress truth.” — Paul Craig Roberts

From the comment section...

maga rats commenting on tucker's firing... (courtesy The Onion)

- I shot my TV as soon as I heard.

- So who is going to tell me what to think now on weeknights between 8 and 9 p.m.?

- But the Constitution explicitly states that you can’t fire Tucker Carlson.

- I’m still trying to process which minority to blame.

- But he was the only thing keeping me insane.

- After a decade of blasting his show at full volume, my doctor says I’ll never be able to hear the frequency of his whine again.

- This is a HUGE victory for American PATRIOTS…somehow. Because now Tucker can FINALLY SAY WHAT HE WANTS!

- The risk of getting fired is the exact reason I always conceal-carry.



Man, what a bunch of herp derp that comment is...
