Now That Tucker Carlson’s Out At Fox, Here’s Places He Could End Up Next…
Well, today has certainly been interesting.
First, it was Dan Bongino and now it is Tucker Carlson.
It appears that this has something to do with the settlement reached after the outlet settled a lawsuit with Dominion Voting Systems.
Fox News last week agreed to a $787 settlement with Dominion.
However, that is just a thought and it could be something else entirely.
The big question though, is where he will end up next…
Fox News released this press release earlier today.
NEW YORK — April 24, 2023 — 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 21st. 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.
FOX News Media operates the FOX News Channel (FNC), FOX Business Network (FBN), FOX News Digital, FOX News Audio, FOX News Books, the direct-to-consumer streaming services FOX Nation and FOX News International and the free ad-supported television service FOX Weather. Currently the number one network in all of cable, FNC has also been the most watched television news channel for more than 21 consecutive years, while FBN ranks among the top business channels on cable. Owned by Fox Corporation, FOX News Media reaches nearly 200 million people each month.
America’s most popular TV news personality has not yet made an official comment or statement on the matter.

CBS News confirmed:
Carlson’s final show aired Friday, the network said.
“We thank him for his service to the network as a host and prior to that as a contributor,” Fox News said in a statement.
Of course, the big question on everyone’s mind has got to be where exactly Tucker Carlson will end up next. For many, he is the bullhorn of the conservative movement. The highest-rated commentator, in the most coveted prime time slot, on the most well-known news network…someone like that doesn’t just disappear.
He can quite literally write his own ticket. Any news organization that has the money to afford him will definitely snatch him up if possible.
That’s the key words, if possible. It’s only been a few short hours since the announcement has been made about his ouster from Fox News so we know little and all we can really do at this point is speculate. For example, people might say that he should go to Newsmax; but can Newsmax REALLY afford Tucker Carlson? It would be hard to say and how much of himself would he have to give to make it worth their while.
Hell, he could likely start a podcast that would make him money hand over fist, if not what he was making at Fox News, certainly enough to be eating out every night for the rest of his life. Then, there is the other option…he isn’t going anywhere but home. Assuming that Fox has had to pay Tucker Carlson the balance on his contract, there likely is a non compete clause in his contract. Tucker Carlson could go anywhere, but he may not be going anywhere but home.
