Asked by Semafor if Tucker Carlson's firing had anything to do with a harassment lawsuit recently filed by a former Fox News producer -- one who'd worked on Carlson's show -- the ex-producer's attorney responded: "I have no comment on those reports other than to say that timing is a matter of physics, and as such is undeniable.”

Tucker Carlson's final show on Fox aired last Friday, the network said.

LA Times now with sources "familiar" claiming Murdoch personally pushed Carlson out, citing specifically the lawsuit filed by ex-producer Abby Grossberg.

Tucker Carlson departs Fox News, pushed out by Rupert Murdoch

Tucker Carlson's last program was Friday, Fox News said. His ouster is likely related to a discrimination lawsuit filed by a former producer.

Los Angeles Times
The suit brought by Grossberg is primary aimed at people who worked on Carlson's show. It accuses him personally of creating and condoning a misogynistic workplace environment (including jokes about which women in politics his staff would have sex with), and antisemitic jokes about employees who, like Grossberg, are Jewish. A lot of this behavior is attributed to Tucker staff member Alexander McCaskill.

I've uploaded a copy of the Abby Grossberg complaint here: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/23787336-complaint-abby-grossberg-v-fox-news-et-al

Notably, this case is in its very early days. Carlson had only recently as last week notified the court he was aware of the summons. Fox & Carlson still have two months to ask for dismissal. Personally, I'll be watching to see if Fox moves for a split trial now; if Carlson is forced to hire his own counsel; or if a settlement is suddenly announced.

"He's probably tanning his testicles about now." - @GoatRoper

You know, it's funny you should mention that.

Once the testicles are tanned, what can you make? A wallet?

A card case, not enough ball sack for a wallet.
