Disgraced former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly is still acting like he's the smartest person in the world, and he said during an interview with Chris Cuomo that he, and apparently on he, knows the real reason that Tucker Carlson was fired from the network. O'Reilly says that everything we've heard so far is either a lie, or a small part of what really happened, but that the truth is that the "threat" of a future defamation lawsuit killed Tucker's career. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses these claims. Link - https://www.rawstory.com/bill-oreilly...

For some reason on his News Nation program, uh, the other day, Chris Cuomo decided to interview disgraced former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly. And Bill O'Reilly told Chris Cuomo that only he knows the absolute truth about what happened at Fox News with Tucker Carlson. Only Bill O'Reilly has all of the answers. So Bill O'Reilly is still trying to pull off his, I'm the smartest human being to ever exist routine. And he kind of came off looking like an absolute idiot because while he says he's the only one with the absolute truth, all he did was repeat things that have already been said by other media outlets before Bill O'Reilly did that interview. Like that's what happened. Because Bill O'Reilly claims that the reason, uh, Tucker Carlson was let go from Fox News is because of lawsuits. Oh my God. Yeah. Nobody else was smart enough to come up with that Bill. You are the only person who said Tucker Carlson was fired because of lawsuits. Even though everybody else already talked about the Dominion lawsuit, which Tucker Carlson was a very big part of. Everybody's already talked about the sexual harassment lawsuit filed by Abby Grossberg. So everybody already knew about that. And then he says there's also a potential lawsuit, you know, that that may not even happen, but the threat of maybe another lawsuit might have been what also led to Tucker Carlson getting fired. That lawsuit may or may not be coming from Ray, uh, eps a, uh, Capitol Rioter, who people like Tucker Carlson have accused of somehow being an FBI plant because Mr. Eps made the mistake of stopping and chit-chatting with the police during the riot. And they're using that little tiny incident to say, ah, he's friendly with them. Clearly he's a plant, even though he's, he's definitely not, but they have slandered that man. I mean, there's no question about it. So he could sue. He should sue, and he would win. But Bill, here's the thing, bud Tucker Carlson and Fox News can still be sued for that, even if Tucker is fired. So firing Tucker does not change the liability of that whatsoever. In fact, Tucker Carlson would likely still be covered by the Fox News lawyers because it happened while he was employed at Fox News. So firing her, him for something that may not even happen, even if you're still liable for it happening if you fire him. Like I, I'm not sure you understand how anything in the world works, bill O'Reilly, but I mean, I guess you are the expert on that, right? You would know everything about being fired from Fox News over lawsuits. Wouldn't Sha Bill, which just kind of raises the question as to why Chris Cuomo would bring on This, this discredited freak anyway. I mean, I know you're probably wanting ratings, Chris, but come on, you couldn't find anybody better to talk about Tucker Carlson getting fired. You had to go to Bill O'Reilly. You had to platform that wrinkled old freak. No, you didn't, is the answer to that. And you should be ashamed of yourself for so very many things. But now you can add that interview with Bill O'Reilly to that list as well.
