Tucker Carlson leaves Fox News

Fox News parted ways with Tucker Carlson on April 24, with a statement thanking him "for his service to the network as a host." Carlson gave no indication he would be leaving Fox News during his final show on April 21, and his departure caused a backlash against the network from some conservatives. According to polling conducted exclusively for Newsweek, if Tucker Carlson responds to his surprise departure by launching his own "independent internet show," 36 percent of Americans would be either "significantly likely" or "likely," to tune in.
