During an interview with radio host Glenn Beck posted on Monday, Tucker Carlson responded to news about the termination of his staff members at the network when Beck asked him if he had heard about it.

“Did you hear the news today?” Beck asked Carlson. “Probably not.”

Beck referred to a report by Chadwick Moore, the editor of The Spectator, which discussed how Carlson’s staff was laid off after he left Fox News. In June, The Daily Caller confirmed that the remaining staff on Carlson’s show were fired, but some were asked to continue working until mid-July.

“Tucker Carlson’s @TuckerCarlson’s remaining team at Fox News (nine employees) will be frog marched out of the building tonight at 9:00pm. HR will be waiting outside the control room when they finish tonight’s show to escort the remaining producers outside. One former Carlson producer called it ‘Degrading!’” a July 14 tweet from Moore read.

Moore reported that any sitting member of the U.S. Senate who publicly criticized Fox after Carlson left were not allowed to appear on the network’s shows anymore.

“That is, and this is certainly not a defense of the company that’s doing that, but this is kind of par in corporate America, I think it’s disgusting,” Carlson said.

Carlson described a conversation with someone in the Human Resources (HR) department that made him decide to avoid any future interactions with them.

“This person came into my office and said, ‘you’re not allowed to talk to another employee about something.’ This person had complained about me so I saw the person — I had never met the person, who had filed complaints saying that I hurt his feelings, or made him feel unsafe because of my opinions. So I run into him and I said, ‘hey, here’s my cell, call me, text me, if you’ve got a problem call me.’”

“And the HR lady comes in and she’s like, ‘you’re not allowed to do that!’ And I said, ‘I’m an adult man and a father and a taxpayer, you are not allowed to tell me who I can speak to.’ And then I used bad language, because I mean it.”
