Tucker Carlson's Firing May Be Related to the Dominion Lawsuit

A racially charged text message reportedly sent by Tucker Carlson to a Fox News producer is providing more insight into why the cable news station fired the former host last week. The Times reports it was sent to one of his producers in the last few hours after the January 6th insurrection and reads in part this way: "I found myself rooting for the mob against the man hoping they'd hit him harder, kill him" Other messages where Carlson disparaged Fox executives and used sexist language also reportedly led to his firing. A representative for Carlson did tell the Times that he had no comment on the story.
