Ex-FOX News anchor, Tucker Carlson, is reported to be seething over what he considers to be petty reprisal by his former network. According to insiders, the network's personnel recently dismantled the summer studio, previously constructed for Carlson on his Maine property by the company. This alleged act comes just as the fired host gears up to start his new broadcast.
An inside source reveals, "Tucker is outraged by their spiteful act. They didn’t even leave a mouse pad behind! He has had to employ a crew to tidy up the mess they created, to set up a new satellite studio for his upcoming show on Twitter."
The studio, which was located in a renovated barn near Carlson's Woodstock residence, was allegedly left inoperable, thus exacerbating Carlson's animosity towards the network.
The insider adds, "He was previously displeased with FOX. Now he’s seething with rage — and considering legal action against them."
Images have surfaced showing a scowling Carlson, 54, unloading tools from his vehicle as he and his own team begin the process of rebuilding. Contrarily, a source close to FOX News maintains that the network only reclaimed its own equipment, leaving the studio, constructed using corporate funds, untouched.
FOX News terminated Carlson's contract in April without giving explicit reasons. However, speculations suggest that his departure might have been part of the settlement conditions for its $787.5 million defamation case with Dominion Voting Systems. Dominion had sued FOX over inaccurate claims made on their shows, including "Tucker Carlson Tonight," accusing the tech company’s machines of manipulating the 2020 presidential election results in favor of Joe Biden over Donald Trump.
However, previous sources informed GLOBE that the conservative network's executives, led by Rupert Murdoch, were reportedly infuriated by Carlson's leaked texts criticizing Trump.
The texts, made public during court filings as part of the lawsuit, showed Carlson referring to Republican Trump as "a demonic force" and "undisputed world champion" of "destroying things." The insider shared, "Tucker became a pariah. Everyone was calling for his ouster — from Murdoch and Trump to Dominion. His days were counted.
"But Tucker isn’t retreating without a battle. He plans to strike FOX where it hurts most — their finances. He claims to possess potentially damaging evidence that could be more detrimental than what Dominion presented!"
