Tucker Carlson is 'furious' at Fox News executives for not supporting his NSA spying claims

[Zorro]

Tucker Carlson is furious with Fox News executives for not vigorously defending him amid his evidence-free claims that the National Security Agency spied on him in a conspiracy to destroy his TV show, according to people familiar with the matter.

One of the sources described Carlson as "furious" with network executives, especially the public relations team, "for not backing him up."

"Tensions are sky high," the person said.

Another source pointed out that Carlson has "always had tension with" management, but said right now he's "extra pissed."

Bite the hand that feeds you, Tucker. Go for it. I dare you.

1. When one calls the kremlin, our arch enemy, one should expect that that call will be picked up

By the NSA...what did he expect? They weren’t “spying.” What an idiot

And why would fux snooz defend him..seriously!!

2. I dunno. I wouldn't be surprised if this were

one more attempt by Tucky-Wacky to stay relevant and get attention now that tfg (note the lowercase), his main source of bullshit to feed his anger-seeking followers, is no longer POTUS.

3. Why would they back him?

The last time they went to bat for him their defense of him was that he is a known liar and that no reasonable person should take what he says seriously.

That is how they got him out of a slander charge where likely he would have to pay a large settlement.

Now the "known liar that no reasonable person should take seriously" wants everyone to believe that the NSA was/is spying on him?

Pull the other one Tucker.

4. In that case Tucker should take his ball and go home.

buhbye

5. Tucker's mad....BFD.

They'll give his show to someone else; they are just reading the propaganda the writers create for them anyway.

They might have trouble getting someone who displays that perpetually constipated look, though.

6. You have to get the audience to accept the replacement, though

And a finnicky lot they are.

7. Remember Tucker with his own NPR talk show back in the shock and awe days?

And his daddy ran the network for awhile. I was beyond furious but that didn't help, he kept his show. What an insult to NPR.
