Wasn't Tucker Carlson essentially kicked off of Fox for believing something different?
Thus proving the point. The moment he went against the talking points he got fired.
He was kicked off for being a sex pest and knowingly pushing the election lies internally at Fox News.
I still love when Putin just drops his Kompromot on Tucker right on his head during the interview. "We know you tried to join the CIA and we know they wouldn't take you :)"

I am convinced that the whole 'sexual abuse' thing is very common in upper echelons and make for a convenient excuse to take down someone now towing the line.
I almost always look for 'root cause' when I hear a sexual abuse scandle taking down someone in power.

Carlson is essentially a performer. He has publicly said so many contradictory things I'm not sure why it matters what he thinks at any given point in time.
He’s changed opinions over time and admitted it, but been consistent for the last handful of years.

There was the $787M lawsuit settlement Fox agreed to because of Carlson's content. That probably had a bit more to do with it.
The Dominion lawsuit was Hannity [1] not Carlson.
Carlson is much smarter and lets his guests actually make wild accusations while Carlson is "just asking questions".

It's kind of part of the same thing. He said stuff Murdoch didn't like so he was gone. Whether he believed it or not is hard to tell.

Well, Tucker was saying Bill O'Reilly was faking it as an everyman when really a millionaire right winger.
