2. So Barr got to Murdoch last night

You know Chris Wallace is next on the chopping block.

Can’t upset dear leader.

3. Oh no?

Who will replace him? Sarah HS or Sarah P? Maybe Kellyanne?

4. Depressing on many levels.

7. Of course, that doesn't mean you can't be interviewed or go on the lecture circuit...

9. True.

I remember when Conan O'Brien got pushed out of the Tonight Show by Leno and NBC, he used his non-compete time to do a live tour.

13. Interesting thing I read on another thread

Employees at that level continue to receive their pay for the length of the non-compete agreement.
