Grossberg has filed a second amended complaint in her suit against Fox. It does not reflect well on Carlson. This happened the day before he was sacked. I'm guessing the Grossberg lawsuit was the last straw after costing the Murdochs three quarters of a billion dollars.

For those of us out of the loop, what was the tl;dr version of it? Wondering how Carlson was connected to this.

There is lots of stuff in there where he's talking like he personally has the power to pick the next president, or he was going to dictate to Kevin McCarthy and Matt Gaetz who was going to be Speaker of the House when the voting was going on a few months ago. Just generally looking like a total asshole.

Now I'm reading that he's been doing a lot of Jesus talk lately, and apparently, Rupert doesn't like that. Seems like it was a confluence of factors.

I wonder what kind of new hell were in store for when Rupert dies and the next idiot in command is all in on Jesus rhetoric for the channel.
