Yeah I heard that broadcast too. So if Tucker is still under contract, they have to pay him millions of dollars a year...to do nothing? Is it Fox's way of trying to shut him up? Can he legally start up a different competing news outlet if he's contractually obligated to a non-compete contract? I'd love to hear from Tucker himself on this matter, but so far I'm not hearing anything from him.
My guess would be that they have two options:
Continue paying Carlson. That way they can guarantee his silence and keep him off air.
Fire Carlson. Allow him to spread his word and have to give him a huge severance payment.
Could his pay be dependent on his ratings, perhaps? With no show that would reduce that to a minimum and any non-disclosure agreements would still be in play.
