In light of the shocking news that Tucker Carlson has been fired from Fox News, I spoke to media veteran and progressive powerhouse Thom Hartmann. Thom has been on television and radio for decades so his perspective on Carlson’s firing was absolutely fascinating.
I describe Thom as the antithesis of Tucker Carlson, and for good reason. He is unfailingly honest, responsible, and in media for all the right reasons. His insight into Fox News, the Murdoch empire, and the harsh business of network news is one born of years of experience, and he has one of the most interesting — and controversial — takes on what is likely to have happened so far.
