Friend ,

Tucker Carlson is finally out at Fox News. After years of racist rants, right-wing disinformation, and countless white supremacist conspiracy theories, the pundit finally went too far.

And what exactly did Tucker Carlson do to finally get shown the door?

He cost his bosses at the Fox Corporation money.

After paying $787.5 million to settle a defamation lawsuit, Fox News finally drew the line. He was worse than racist, dishonest, xenophobic, and hateful. He was a financial liability.

Friends, this is what it’s all about for the corporate media: money. And it's not just Fox News.

To get the news you can trust, it must be independent, nonprofit, and free of corporate influence. But it’s never been harder to survive as an independent news outlet, and unless readers step up, we simply won’t make it.
