BREAKING: Tucker Carlson Out!

Fox fires Tucker Carlson out the cannon.

Another shocking story, the controversial host Tucker Carlson is out at Fox. Perhaps, the most watched cable news host in history has been fired out the cannon. He was the No. 1 in primetime with 4 million viewers.

That means Maria Bartiromo, Jeanine Pirro, Sean "Softball" Hannity and Laura Ingraham are not safe.

The network announced that Carlson will not be on tonight.

“Fox News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways. We thank him for his service to the network as a host and prior to that as a contributor.

Mr. Carlson’s last program was Friday, April 21. Fox News Tonight will air live at 8 pm ET starting this evening as an interim show helmed by rotating FOX News personalities until a new host is named.” 

It came days after Fox announced they were settling with Dominion for $787.5 billion after the network promoted baseless claims that the voting systems changed votes from Washed Up 45 to Joe Biden.

Dominion claimed it was owed damages resulting from Fox’ airing of false claims about its role in the 2020 election. In the past few months, emails and texts gathered for the trial from Fox executives and anchors — Carlson and Sean Hannity included — hinted that people working at the company knowingly put forth false information about the election and Dominion’s involvement in it.

Carlson found himself embroiled in serious controversy throughout his time at Fox. In recent weeks, a lawsuit from a former booker at the network, Abby Grossberg, accused Carlson’s staff of making anti-Semitic jokes, liberal use of the word “cunt” in the office, and casual misogyny.

There was zero indication of Carlson’s exit as recently as Friday evening, when at the close of what would be his final episode he said to viewers a typical, “We’ll be back on Monday.” In fact, as of this morning there were still promos running for Carlson’s planned interview with Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.

Carlson was most known for promoting white supremacist propaganda. The program was a favorite among Russian propagandists.

Carlson began his Fox tenure as a political analyst in 2009, appearing on various programs before the launch of Tucker Carlson Tonight in 2016. Prior to that, he worked at CNN from 2000 to 2005, where he served as cohost of the debate-style program Crossfire, before making the leap to MSNBC, where he hosted the primetime program Tucker from 2005 to 2008.
