He's anti-corporate establishment. They don't want to pay Fox for him to be there. I'd bet most of what I have that they just needed an excuse to fire him on behalf of their advertisers. That's it. It used to be that corporations paid for views, but I don't think that's the case anymore. I think they pay for influence. If you can do that with the most views possible, great. If not, controlling information is way more important. Advertisers do have a major influence on programming, as they should. After all, they're paying for it. The Wall Street Journal weighed in on the influence of the advertisers: Tucker Carlson’s Vulgar, Offensive Messages About Colleagues Helped Seal His Fate at Fox News - WSJ While Mr. Carlson’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight” was popular, it was also repellent to blue-chip advertisers. Top-tier marketers tend to steer clear of content they deem too controversial, and the show was sometimes the target of advertiser boycotts. As advertisers have fled prime time, some have shifted to airing commercials on Fox at other times. Mr. Carlson’s show has filled the void mostly with ads from direct-response advertisers and MyPillow Inc. The pillow manufacturer’s commercials star CEO Mike Lindell, who has also appeared as a guest on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” and was one of the most prominent people spreading the false election-fraud narrative. Direct-response advertisers typically are smaller businesses whose ads encourage people to take actions such as calling a toll-free number. The lack of advertiser demand meant the commercials in many cases weren’t being sold at a premium or at a rate commensurate with its audience size, which meant it wasn’t providing a huge financial windfall to the network, people familiar with the network’s operations said. |
