Nobody can ever replace Tucker Carlson as far as his fans are concerned, but Fox News Channel has decided which of its personalities will fill his shoes in the coveted primetime slot.
Fox News Channel has seen its ratings dip amid outrage over the April ouster of Mr. Carlson, who has since launched a daily social-media program called “Tucker on Twitter,” part of billionaire Elon Musk’s strategy to make Twitter more of a news platform.
“She has hosted a series of highly rated town halls including Red State Trailblazers, Time for Class and Georgia and the Battle for Senate,” said the network. “A former litigator and Supreme Court law clerk for Justice Clarence Thomas, Ingraham joined FNC in 2007 as a contributor, providing political and legal analysis to FNC’s daytime and primetime programming.”
“In addition to hosting Primetime, Watters is also a co-host of The Five, the 5 PM/ET roundtable discussion program that has been number one in cable news and all of cable for the last seven consecutive quarters,” the network said.
