Fox News Host Stuns Audience After Calling Out Network's Decision to Fire Tucker Carlson

In a stunning jab to Fox News, host Greg Gutfeld called out the network for firing Tucker Carlson. 

Gutfeld compared the ongoing advertiser boycott of Elon Musk's X to Fox News' decision to fire Carlson, arguing that both icons pose too many challenges to elitists. 

The host said that Musk telling off "cowardly advertisers" who cave to pressure from the radical Left and abandoning X is "how it's done." After showing the clip of Musk saying "G. F. Y." about top brands' decision to stop advertising on his platform, Gutfeld praised Musk while throwing a jab at his own network's decision to get rid of Carlson. 

"The fact is, Musk may be the last man standing between real freedom of speech and the suffocating block of this censorship industrial complex, which is made up of government, media, and tech forces," Gutfeld said. "He realizes that advertisers have no spine and can be easily cowed by special interest groups in cahoots with political allies."

Gutfeld then threw Fox News under the bus, "If you don't believe me, I've got two words for you: Tucker Carlson."

Gutfeld has been "musked". He now has the courage to call out the media. He may be joining Tucker soon at X. We welcome him.🙏

That's a really bold move, but he is also 100% correct. Fox News cost themselves millions of dollars in revenue and viewers. They should have never fired Tucker.

And, that's WHY Gutfeld and Tucker ARE 2 of the best.
NO BS with them, none, what you see IS what you get.

Truth seems to be gaining momentum. It’s actually sad how exciting that is.
