What’s Happening:
Ever since Election Night, conservatives have been growing more and more skeptical of Fox News.
The network has long been considered the one “conservative” outlet in the mainstream media. But in recent days, they appeared to push the same narrative as CNN, MSNBC, and all the others.
Some worry that Fox will become no different than those left-leaning channels. A rumor even arose that one of their stars, Tucker Carlson, was leaving the network.
But Tucker himself squashed those rumors and gave a bit of hope for Fox:
Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Monday assured viewers he was not leaving the network as rumors had suggested on social media sites over the past few days.
“Over the weekend, we got a lot of calls asking if we’re leaving Fox News,” Carlson said. “This show is not going anywhere. It’s getting bigger.”
…Carlson said Fox News executives are looking to “expand the amount of reporting and analysis we do in this hour across other parts of the company.”
Tucker Carlson, a celebrated conservative v[contentad widget=”427100″]oice in the media, revealed that rumors of him leaving Fox News were unfounded.
He said he was going nowhere. In fact, the show is getting bigger. Tucker revealed that the network wants to expand the impact Tucker and his team have on the channel. Let’s be honest, he’s one of the last good shows on Fox anyhow. A true conservative voice for America.
Tucker suggested they will be doing more during his hour-long show and even “across other parts of the company.”
This might be reassuring news to the many Republicans recently turned off by Fox News’ antics. They called Arizona for Biden hours into Election Night before most other groups.
Many people’s worries were confirmed when longstanding host Neil Cavuto even cut away from the White House press secretary when she began to discuss possible voter fraud.
It’s hard not to think Fox News is turning, when they deliberately do things like that.
But if the network wants to expand Tucker’s role, it means somebody on their board is smart enough to see the writing on the wall. Fox News has thrived because millions of Americans want unbiased news coverage, free from liberal spin.
Since Tucker’s taken over his current time slot, the show’s only grown. That’s even after liberal attempts to boycott and two doxxing attacks.
Key Takeaways:
- Tucker Carlson dismissed rumors he was leaving Fox News.
- In fact, he said his role would be expanding on the network.
- Many conservatives have started to question Fox News in recent months.
