Funny how costing your bosses $800 million bucks will get you fired.

The fun thing is, this still doesn't get old Tuck off the hook for the lawsuits, he just doesn't have Fox covering his ass now. He can pay for his own lawyers, and that ain't gonna come cheap, not even for a right wing millionaire asshat like he is (was?).
