'The Daily Show' Shares a Few Theories About What Led to Tucker’s Exit
It’s now been more than 24 hours since the news broke that Tucker Carlson was out at Fox News—and Desi Lydic says she might be starting to feel a little sorry for the pro-testicle tanning television personality. Especially after The Daily Show guest host learned that Tucker was given just 10 minutes notice before his departure was announced publicly.
“That is so cold,” Lydic said. “I mean, that’s barely enough time to pack up all his Nazi memorabilia.”
As of this moment, it remains unclear what led to Carlson’s abrupt dismissal—but Lydic has a few ideas: “Maybe it was the election lies that cost Fox News $787 million. Maybe it was insulting his bosses in private texts. Maybe it was his overall vibe of ‘creepy dad driving the babysitter home.’”
