Brian Steinberg Senior TV Editor Tucker Carlson hasn’t left Fox Corporation quite yet. The company’s Fox News Media unit has hours and hours of various specials and original programming the controversial anchor developed for the subscription-based streaming service Fox Nation, and doesn’t appear poised to take any of that content down. The Carlson-created options currently available on the service are manifold. There is a program called “Let Them Eat Bugs!” that examines how “global leaders, movie stars and social media influencers are making a concerted push to force bugs into your diet, whether you like it or not.” A “Tucker Carlson Originals Christmas Special” is available for those interested. And Carlson’s last broadcast on Fox News Channel — from Friday, April 21 — is ready to for binge-viewing. There are also classic Carlson interviews to be found in “Tucker Carlson Tonight: The Vault.”

I mean, does he have a collection of paintings that weren’t by Hitler? I don’t know,” Kimmel joked.

Tucker Carlson is firing back after he was let go from Fox News earlier this week. In a video posted to Twitter on Wednesday, Carlson officially broke his silence for the first time since the surprising ouster and dropped clues about where his career could be headed next. «One of the first things you realize, when you step outside the noise for a few days, is how many genuinely nice people there are in this country and decent people who really care about what's true,» Carlson began, adding that «the other thing you notice when you take a little time off is how unbelievably stupid most of the debates you see on television are.

In fact, he didn’t really say anything specific at all.Carlson’s two-minute rant, in the form of a video posted to Twitter you can watch above, was instead a vague, cryptic list of grievances against “people in charge,” “both political parties” and what he called the emergence of a “one-party state” in the United States.

Brian Steinberg Senior TV Editor It’s an idea that would make any news executive salivate. What if MSNBC revived CNN’s old “Crossfire” show, enlisting Tucker Carlson from the right and Don Lemon from the left? Such a concept would normally be unthinkable. Tucker Carlson is known for his work on Fox News. Don Lemon has long held forth for CNN. It has been that way for years. Until, as of earlier this week, it wasn’t. Within the space of 90 minutes on April 24, Carlson was ousted from Fox News Channel and Lemon was pushed from CNN. Both were stalwart personalities for their networks. Both were valued for their ability to spark conversation, debate, pushback and even furor. For years, that has been the cable-news coin of the realm. As the economics of TV shift, however, it is becoming clearer that media executives may have less patience for TV-news pot-stirrers.

on the network’s official website there wasn’t a single mention of the settlement.
