Tucker's power was that he reached normie boomer and gen X types
While I agree and this could be a problem, he also has name recognition among these types and could be the catalyst that switches many of them over to alternative media sources, if he goes over to them. Once there, they'll stick around.
We're already seeing it. I know plenty of boomers that have started watching shit on Rumble. Especially with how prevalent these people are on Facebook where they just need a link to get started.
By the way, Fox's power isn't Fox News. It's their control over so many local stations. People don't realize that local stations are political, and they give them more trust, even subconsciously. But then they quickly mix in their syndicated bullshit and it instantly "normalizes" it all. Whereas they take national news with a grain of salt, they often take local news at face value.
