Two major terminations in Broadcast Journalism and Cable TV: Don Lemon and Tucker Carlson

On April 24, 2023; two major names were terminated in Broadcast Journalism and Cable tv. First, Don Lemon lost his job at CNN. Don Lemon was the host of “CNN This Morning” along with Kaitlan Collins; and Katharine 'Poppy' Harlow. On April 25, 2023, Kaitlan Collins and Katharine Harlow addressed their viewers regarding the correct firing of Don Lemon. Don Lemon was stunned literally by the news, as he posted the utter disbelief on Twitter. Lemon deserved to lose his job, as he said offensive statements about former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley. Next, Tucker Carlson and Fox News parted ways on 4-24-2023. The real story is Tucker was ousted by the Murdoch family. Rupert Murdoch and his family (particulary brothers, Lachlan and James Murdoch) collaborated together for this shocking decision. Tucker Carlson has worked at CNN; PBS; MSNBC; and Fox News over the past twenty three years. In each job, Tucker has lost his employment. Tucker Carlson can be called Tucker 'the motherfucker' Carlson; in the whole fifty states due to his often moronic comments about US citizens. Furthermore, the Fox News network saw their ratings plummet by 50% during the prime time hours slot since Carlson's exit. The sharp decline in prime time hours ratings is a clear sign that the media viewership is upset. Fox news network and their supporters (viewers) are controversial, right-wing followers. Fox News network revenue and profit are hurting, due to the drop in viewership; advertising sales; etc. Fox News network is owned by Fox Corporation. The company has corporate headquarters in New York City, New York. In this paragraph, the fate of Fox News network will take shape. The USA should unite as a country, to stop watching Fox News network. There are other well known alternatives like MSNBC; CBS News; and ABC News. Cable TV viewers should flock to watching these channels, as the American public will improve their outlook on reliable news. Jimmy Kimmel and Seth Meyers are late night talk show hosts, which are so happy that Tucker Carlson got fired again. As an avid fan of both people, the author is in accord with both late night talk show hosts. In closing, there are some options for Don Lemon and Tucker Carlson in their next phase of journalism roles. Could either one land at Newsmax channel? Newsmax states that the company is a leading 24/7 cable news channel. Yet, it is described as conservative, right-wing and far-right audiences. Only the public and cable tv knows where the heck Don Lemon will go. Good day from the rhyming Rahulio Ganpuleone.
