Addressing the current moment is not my intent. I have no idea what the "inside story" is on the events related to Fox's or Carlson's decisions. Mr Carlson is wisely being deliberative regarding his physical presence and his messaging, and by next week the news cycle will have no doubt shifted in relation to this sudden exile, or self-exile; so there is little point in adding my own theories to the events of the present. (Though I suspect that the stern, mafioso-like public warnings of Sen. Charles Schumer [D-NY] and others to the Murdochs, that they were making a mistake in tolerating Carlson's airing of the first set of previously unseen January 6 videos, and that those who passed on the footage were playing a "treacherous game", was a factor in at least some upheaval on the part of Fox's leadership. I recognize a political threat of retribution when I hear one):
