Fox News makes headlines and shocks the world.

It’s the end of the school year, and it’s been an eventful year. I’m not sure I would have much to say that would make people think, or maybe I just really ran out of things to say.
But after the events of last week, there is one thing I would like to mention: Tucker Carlson is out of a job at Fox News, and that’s hilarious. It truly could not have happened to a nicer guy. I mean that sarcastically of course, because he is for all intents and purposes a white supremacist. Note to Tucker: if a bunch of white supremacists watch your show to refine their talking points, you are a white supremacist no matter what you think.
But Tucker is gone, finally having done enough to get his bosses at Fox to man up and sever ties. It took two years after he was seemingly cool with an insurrection on the U.S. Capitol Building, but better late than never.
Fox shouldn’t be applauded for doing the right thing after all of the awful things they allowed him to say on camera over the years. But Tucker Carlson being deplatformed, at least temporarly, is a step in the right direction. Good riddance to bad rubbish and ugly bowties.
