To steal a line from Ted Lasso: I wish him the best - cause he is the fucking worst.

@hi

This is trolling, right? Oh are we trying to kickstart the migration of r/gatekeeping over to /m/gatekeeping?

I think it’s part of the deal they signed. While he was fired I’m pretty sure he was compensated more than fairly for that exclusivity and for agreeing to not get litigious. Either way there is absolutely no reason to feel sorry for Tucker.

I thought the article said his services would still remain exclusive to Fox until 2024 as part of the termination.

I believe that was indeed the insinuation by Spez but if you read the transcript it’s very clear that however the term “go quiet” was misconstrued it was cleared up by both parties before moving on in the discussion. “Quiet” was clearly defined in the context of their discussion to be reference to the “noise” of API calls/requests. Any attempts to spin the discussion to be a veiled threat of bad PR would be in bad faith.

It’s important to note here that the Apollo dev is in Canada and it is legal for him to record the call as it is single party consent there. So he’s not doing anything nefarious by recording the call and primarily does it for his own record keeping and is good operational prudence really.

Edit: Apollo Dev also only made the recording and transcript available to clear his name after Reddit/Spez accused him of threatening actions.
