When was the last time a major news or opinion Journalist was fired or, more politely, parted ways with their news organization? If you are trying to think back a few years, then that's my point, it doesn't happen very often.
But, on Monday, April 24th, not one but TWO media icons fell from grace, in what is being termed by some as the "Monday Media Massacre."
In this episode, we discuss how the words of Tucker Carlson of Fox News and his CNN rival, Don Lemon ultimately caught up with them. Leading to both long-time anchors "parting ways" with their news organizations. AKA... they got fired!
Join me as we hear directly from each of these larger-than-life personalities that have for decades been prominent figures on the news channels we watch.
