Et tu Rupert

        Although my schadenfreude meter is stuck at 10 out of 10 thanks to the news that Tucker Carlson was defenestrated at FAUX News the other day, I can't help wondering what's next for the cable "news" channel and its benighted viewers.

      My exposure to Carlson is limited to short clips of his greatest racist and misogynistic hits aired by CNN or MSNBC, but many Fox viewers considered his show must watch TV.   Will these viewers accept Carlson's firing and move on with the network or will they migrate to even more extreme fare in order to get their daily dose of conservative outrage?  Will Tucker turn his name recognition into a presidential campaign?   Stay tuned!
