Now that Fox has an open time slot, they can raise their journalistic standards to a whole new level with - the George Santos News Hour. That's the kind of integrity we can expect from Fox.

That's _precisely_ what HR is for. HR is not for the benefit of employees. It's for ensuring employees can be fired with the least amount of inconvenience and unpleasantness for the employer.

[@cobrasys]

Right, but outright collecting dirt with the explicit purpose of blackmailing former employees is ghoulish even for HR departments.

I wish for a sequel that will require more impressions, like that Tucker runs for Congress. Wait, that sound too likely, never mind!

[@dahn57]

I expect Tucker will end up at one of the outright fascist, white supremacist channels, so we've likely not heard the last of Seth's Tucker impressions 😉

[@johnobrien2373]

​@Dahn Well, it would have to be. Fox firing him means he has been fired from all 3 big cable news networks! The fringe is all that's left!

[@camelsheit_on_the_walls446]

Among all the people at Fox, F(t)ucker was probably the one despising his audience the most. We know that no one looks down on the Fox viewers as much as the selfsame Fox folks, but the Fired One took it to another level, serving his audience the most bizarre & obvious lies, and twisted surreal stories, that he could think of, and getting some serious kicks out of seeing how they swallowed it whole and eagerly. He has been as addicted to mocking their intelligence (or rather; lack thereof) as they have been addicted to being despised and lied to. I fear, that both parties probably will be suffering from abstinence syndrome right now... 😭

[@alexisgrunden1556]

First, I am so happy to see someone else who calls that perpetually poleaxed @$$clown _F*^ker_ Carlson; thank you! 😂 Second, as for the viewers? They *willingly* chug that Kool-Aid; let them go into withdrawal from it.

[@EH23831]

Full unhealthy co-dependency 😅

[@charlie-obrien]

As you look at all the clips they used, you always see Tucker dressed like a prep school Sophmore. I mean what grown man wears khaki's with penny loafers and no socks when he is at work. Going by that, I think you can imagine what his outlook on the rest of the world is and how willing he would be to mingle with the 90 year olds and trailer trash that watched his show.

It's been covered on Corrections before, it wouldn't work without the door closed, unless you did something really dangerous to the microwave. But I guess that someone who wants to microwave their junk might not really care about danger, and just want the Darwin Award, dead or alive.
