Brian Kilmeade, co-host of “Fox & Friends,” addressed the network’s firing of Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Monday night as he hosted Carlson’s former show during the 8 p.m. EST hour.
“As you probably have heard, Fox News and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways,” Kilmeade said. “I wish Tucker the best. I’m great friends with Tucker and always will be. But right now, it’s time for ‘Fox News Tonight,’ so let’s get started.”

Hannity whatever...
If you are still watching Fox Snooze you not getting any truthful information. Just stop.
“Notice they fired Tucker as soon as Don Lemon was available…”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh no. Don’t you Dare go there!
;-)
There is nothing worth a shit on Fox without Tucker.
Hannity still draws in 2.7 million viewers. Fox is not going to care that they will lose 700,000 from losing Tucker.
“I have considered Brian to be a RINO.”
Me as well. I believe he is a never-Trumper and never misses a chance to explain why Trump is wrong about almost everything. Several months ago I started switching the radio station when his show came on so he may have changed his ways since then.
Tucker the top rated show not Hannity.
...... Hannity is about to become more "Tempered" as we enter this new kinder gentler broadcast era .....
.
Correct. Tucker had 3.4 million viewers. If they decide to give his slot to Hannity, the program should attract 2.7 million viewers. So Fox will lose 700,000 viewers. But more advertisers may be willing to spend money on Hannity’s program. Tucker Carlson was becoming like Donald Trump. So we saw that he ended up getting cancelled, unfortunately.
I don’t think that’s fair. There are a lot of people on Fox who seem to be solid Conservatives and express Conservative values very forcefully.
We’ve been talking here about Tucker all day - but nobody really knows what happened, whether he was fired or chose on his own to leave.
I haven’t always agreed with him, but he seems to be a pretty principled guy, and maybe he decided that Fox just wasn’t right for him anymore.
Agreed. And he was already "lame". Can't blame him in a way. He enjoys his job.
Fox’s ratings are about to fall to cnn, and mslsd levels.
Went to watch Gutfeld, 10 min in and no conversation about Tucker, just talking about Twitters blue check marks. Looks like they are all scared. Maybe they will bring it up later. I doubt it though.
I wish Fox News the worst.
Corporate bean counters have a plan but the world is constantly changing and Cable TV seems like a dinosaur.
If Hannity was a real man he would have walked out. I would certainly hope that many of those who watch Hannity will find the exit due to what Fox did to Tucker. No one owes Hannity anything.
Kilmeade is a D-Bag
Because they will be replaced. O'Reilly. Beck. Tucker. Fox doesn't care about ratings. They know who's the boss.
Tucker drew over 5 million viewers, the biggest audience for FNC by far.
Will Mike Lindell pull his ads, I wonder...
Fox will order Hannity to stop interviewing Trump on his program. Fox won’t need Mike Lindell’s ads. They will be more attractive to mainstream corporations.
