Fox understands that having fired Tucker, he has the potential of becoming more powerful than they could possibly imagine.

[austintexas]

That was the key phrase, “access to the population.” They don’t want him to have access to the population. Right, good luck with that! Go Tucker!!

[cliffordmaxwell]

The people do not want corporate media to be able to control the narrative. PERIOD!

[El.presidente]

Tucker actually only said 5 words: "The Emperor has no clothes." Let the Fall begin. Goodbye 🤡 🌎

[captainbuck]

I completely ignore FOX! I watch Tucker!

[ensignj]

FOX fired Tucker to silence him during the election. Go Tucker.

[anthonyhoward]

Tucker Giving up $30 million makes him a true patriot.

[daveblackman]

It’s like they’re trying to make him intentionally bigger and more popular 😂

[andreaspooky]

I don't see how their claims could hold water.
When Carlson spoke at conferences, or holding interviews, was Fox able to stop him by his contract?
I don't think so.
He's basically posting his videos on a social platform with no contract or an owner.

Its not about Tucker supporters, its about believers in free speech and logical honest discussion that Fox is in fear of :)

[JanPBtest]

Fox has no case, anyone can tweet. End of story.

[mitchellpritsker]

We don’t want Tucker to be silenced we need to hear more from him?

[marygooden]

They falsely fired him…..so Fox initially broke the contract. In that case, Tucker should be able to do anything he wants! Now, they just want to shut him up. I say Go Tucker Go! Good for him, keep speaking out.

[scottbrown]

They did shut him up. On their network! I don't see how they can stop or prevent him from speaking his mind.

[nukembear]

Pretty sure tuckers contract doesn't let the company silence tucker, it's no doubt a non compete but if you talk for free on Twitter, your not competing!

[mkrake]

Calling what Tucker is doing right now a show is being generous. So far it's just Tucker looking into the camera and giving an opinion and that's it. No interviews. No segments. Nothing. Would Tucker's Fox contract prevent Tucker from writing an op-ed for some paper? Because what's he's doing right now isn't any different.

My family has for the most part given up on foxnews. Tucker was a real person giving real news and opinions. We didnt always agree with him, but we loved his show. Now we just watch Stewart Varney for his light hearted business new show. Fox does not really understand its viewership. CNN has fallen, and now Fox is going the same way. We now watch Tucker's podcast instead of foxnews.

[a.hoctavius]

Make up your mind Fox News. You want him or you don’t

[LisaRent]

Tucker would be the only Fox host banned from posting videos on Twitter.

Tucker is teaching us how great it is to have you're own authentic voice without filter, true independence.
