There are plenty if ways around that friend. Just consider ALL the many personalities who've left Rupertville over the years. Whether they floated independent like Beck and O'Reilly or headed off for a competitor like Megyn and Shep there was very little to impede most of them, if anything at all.
O'Reilly actually went on Beck's show to give him the REAL truth of the Tucker story. While his 100% straight from the source FACTS about the what and the why ended up sounding and smelling like a dusty old fart let out by O'Reilly holding a riding crop and sporting assless chaps he did manage to tell Glenn one thing that was factual. (Sorry, I wanted everyone to share that mental image with me. I'm in a cruel mood. 🤣😈 Oh and my BDSM Bill definitely has a hat 👮♂️ cuz, he's a sex machine, folks!! )
The "non-compete" agreements that they all sign DON'T extend to the Internet and/or independent platforms. Nothing in those agreements can stop you from betting on yourself and making your own spin-off show, as long as you don't try to get NBC to buy it.
It's not just the majors either. Krystal and Saagar from the Hill had their own show (believe its called Breaking Point) off the ground and running before the ink dried on their resignations. Kim Iversen is another popular Hill alum who went independent with her own show airing on the burgeoning Rumble platform.
On the left, Jimmy Dore left the Cenk and the YOUNG TURK jokers for greater success with his own show hosted from his garage. Heck, even Olbermann and CAPICOLA{GABAGOOL} loving multigym enthusiast Christie Cuomo got their own gigs after wading through the rubble.
A lot of this speculation has been about what FOX was paying him and the term length - supposedly through 2028 or something. "They keep paying him $20 million a year and HE CAN'T TALK! THIS IS HOW THEY SILENCE TRUMP BEFORE ELECSHUN 2024!!"
Who's giving these takes? The guy on Venice Beach?
Listen. In case one Alvin Bragg didn't teach us ANYTHING it's that lawyers can do whatever the fuck they want in our society. The idea that Tucker is going to sit still right now, at THE MOST TURBULENT AND POTENTIALLY PROFITABLE juncture of his life -- that's PATENTLY insane. Even IF there were some incredible clauses in his contract about NEVER SAYING ANYTHING OR BEING ON A SCREEN until the end of the term, any decent lawyer could find a way out of it.
Not to mention Tucker probably has WAY BETTER than "decent" legal representation. I mean, even more fundamentally: you just heard Barnes say Carlson's been talking about getting fired for YEARS now. If he had that portent for so long, what would have compelled him to sign a brutal agreement like this hypothesized one?
Trump is running for 2024. TUCKER WILL BE ALIVE AND WELL AND HEARD ALL AROUND THE LAND, THUSLY. My bet is on Barnes' idea: go to Rumble, air 5 nights a week right after Greenwald, and WRECK SHIT.
It's going to happen fast, whatever he does and wherever he does it. **Tucker will earn a LOT more than 20 million a year by staying in the limelight. He's not taking a break, and if he's hamstrung from doing it somehow it would be a travesty.
Because more important than any financial incentive is that Tucker is now freed from constraints and can shape the landscapes of civic discourse and politics MORE THAN EVER. He's one of the most important people on the planet and EASILY the most powerful person in the entire MEDIA. You can't hold him back.
Anyone saying it's going to be like Beck starting the Blaze is a damn fool to me. It's going to be 10,000 times larger than that. Trump will have the conservative news market cornered by the time this is over, BOOK IT.
