Big Head DC has just received word from Tucker Carlson himself that rumors floating around the blogosphere today (which were stirred up by an unnamed NBC exec in the NY Times yesterday) are false — MSNBC has not canceled his program behind his back. “We’re on the air as far as I know,” Carlson tells us. “I’m heading to the studio right now in fact.”
Could MSNBC have made a decision to drop him without telling him first? Or is it a possibility that someone within MSNBC who doesn’t like Carlson floated the inaccurate rumors, as we’ve heard from our own NBC sources? When we contacted Carlson about the alleged cancellation mentioned by the NBC exec yesterday, he seemed to confirm the latter line of thought, saying, “TV’s a dangerous business.”

WE LOVE YOU TUCKER!!! Hold on!!!
Someone’s gunning for him.
You know, Tucker seems to be cursed since Jon Stewart went off on him on Crossfire.
[…] Nothing could further from the truth, from what Carlson hears. “We’re on the air as far as I know,” Carlson tells Big Head DC. […]
That’s funny. When I spoke to Tucker*, he told me it was over. Finished. He was done. He sounded drunk. And like he had been crying. Then he asked me if I knew anyone at FOX News who could give him a job.
* Legal disclaimer: Okay, I didn’t really speak to Tucker. It was actually a tranny I met on the street who just looked like Tucker. LOTS of trannys look like Tucker.
[…] Nothing could further from the truth, however. At least, from what Carlson hears. “We’re on the air as far as I know,” Carlson tells Big Head DC, calling rumors of his show’s impending demise “complete and utter bullshit.” […]
Could MSNBC have made a decision to drop him without telling him first?
TV Execs??? (blink, blink!!!) Being two-faced?? I just can’t believe it…
Bad karma’s a bitch, tho…
Tucker covers the most sleazy ppl and works for the 2nd most sleazy ppl.
MSNBC is considering canceling Tucker Carlson’s program….No one has been more instrumental in allowing equal opportunity to represent different views out there than Tucker….If Olberman and the gang are succesful it will be a major blow to equal attention in MSM….write to MSNBC and ask them to KEEP TUCKER!!!

[…] Thwarts Bush Over Thanksgiving | Mo Rocca Really a Lesbian? | Fran Townsend’s Odd Resignation BHDC Commenters Want to Save Tucker Carlson Monday November 26th, 2007 9:16 AM by BHDC Staff Filed under: Tucker CarlsonOver the Thanksgiving weekend we got several comments and e-mails pointing us to a new Web site called Save Tucker in response to our postings regarding the possibility that the MSNBC’s conservative show may soon be cancelled. The site, created by Tucker fans John Bertran and Alain Jean is promoted as such: […]
He’s an ignorant hack. His attempted hatchet job on the reporter from the scotsman was a joke. He had the temerity to question UK journalism standards when he’s one of the worst examples of partisan obfuscating journalism that this country seems to favour.
Americans, do yourselves and the world a favour and throw the lot of these idiots in the trash. They’re damaging your country.
