A handful of Fox News anchors have allegedly reached out to Tucker Carlson directly or had their surrogates contact the axed anchor to let him know that they were 'eager' to join whatever venture he starts on Twitter when their contracts are up.
According to knews.com, Carlson also reportedly received a surprising phone call from one of the network's board members.
According to sources with knowledge of the conversation, the board member informed Carlson that his recent firing was a condition of Fox News' settlement with Dominion Voting Systems. Though the condition is not noted in any of the settlement files, it was an alleged spoken agreement with the guarantee that the settlement would be off if Fox didn't comply.
Sources believe that Dominion had a goal in mind - to maim the conservative news network - and that requiring Fox News to cut ties with their most watched personality, Carlson, would cause a viewer exodus.
The sources added that Carlson is a "civilian casualty," Dominion wanted to send a message to Fox, which seems to be working.
