My day is much happier, hearing this news.
Yesterday AOC was on MSNBC calling for Tucker to be banned. Probably this didn't influence Fox's decision, but I'm not sure I like it when popular "liberal" politicians are calling for media censorship.
Tucker was often horrible, but he was the only one on corporate media who called for Julian Assange to be freed, who said that war with China would be stupid, and several other true things. Now even these little bits of truth will disappear from TV, as the rest of Fox is all in on fake news, and the other corporate outlets (e.g. MSNBC) are all in on slightly different fake news.
It's a case of being careful what you wish for -- whoever replaces him will be worse.
