Along with the call for action, Favre attached a clip of Sirius XM host Megyn Kelly condemning Fox’s apparent axing of Carlson.
“They don’t have a deal. Why not?” Kelly asks in the clip. “Because he needs to be silenced while Fox tries to rebuild that disappearing audience.”
“They are banking on you coming back to them. They got a debate in August. You can’t resist. You’ll go. You’ll forgive everything. They’re banking on it,” she added.
Fox trusts that its longtime viewers will tune in for key events, including Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R-FL) likely presidential announcement, Kelly said.
