Thoughts and prayers for the evil fucks at Fox News:
Now that Fucker Tucker Carlson has been fired, Fox News has reshuffled its prime-time lineup. According to The Daily Beast, Laura Ingraham is not included in that lineup after The Drudge Report reported on the changes at the network.
To be clear, Fox News has neither confirmed nor denied the reporting by Drudge.
The Drudge Report on Wednesday morning reported that the network plans to move longtime star Sean Hannity into the coveted 8 p.m. hour previously held by Carlson, who was shockingly fired late last month. Furthermore, Drudge added, with Hannity moving up an hour, fellow hosts Jesse Watters and Greg Gutfeld would slide into the 9 and 10 p.m. primetime hours. The latter slot is currently held by Laura Ingraham.
Drudge’s claim about a major lineup reshuffle came just a day after Fox Corp. held its annual advertising upfront prominently featuring the network’s stars. In response to Drudge’s blaring headline, a network spokesperson wrote in a statement: “No decision has been made on a new primetime line-up and there are multiple scenarios under consideration.
Fox Corp. CEO Lachlan Murdoch left the door open to schedule changes last week during an earnings call. “There’s no change to our programming strategy at Fox News,” he said. “It’s obviously a successful strategy, and as always, we are adjusting our programming and our lineup and that’s what we continue to do.”

Since the network ousted Carlson just days after settling a defamation lawsuit with Dominion for $787.5 million, Fox News’ ratings have plummeted as disgruntled right-wing viewers have boycotted the conservative cable giant. Meanwhile, wannabe rival Newsmax has seen its viewership explode in recent weeks as the MAGA channel has unapologetically pandered to Carlson fans.
Of course, Hannity, Watters, and Gutfeld are all deplorable fascists as well. As Murdoch said, the programming won’t change. Only the faces of the white nationalists have if the reporting by Drudge is correct.
Bye, Felicia.
