I'm nothing but glad Tucker Carlson was just fired from Fox News. The man was an open bigot. He was a white supremacist who employed other white supremacists. He's also a liar and a scoundrel. But I want us to pause for a quick moment and squeeze some lessons out of what just went down.

Because here's what I know - Fox News is going to replace one bigot with another bigot. This man wasn't fired for his racism, he was fired because he was costing the corporation a TON of money. Period. They were ALWAYS willing to endure his racism.

But let me unpack and explain what we really need to know about all of this.
