Fox Picks Tucker Carlson To Replace Megyn Kelly

Fox News has announced that Tucker Carlson will move into Megyn Kelly’s 9 PM slot following her departure from the network after this week. Apparently, the “fair and balanced” network concluded that what its prime time lineup needed was another white, male, conservative, Trump-supporting host.

Politico has the other changes:

Martha MacCallum will succeed Carlson at 7 p.m., per Fox. MacCallum will anchor a program called "The First 100 Days," chronicling the first 100 days of the Trump administration. She will also co-anchor inauguration coverage for Fox. Shannon Bream will succeed MacCallum as co-anchor of "Happening Now," alongside Bill Hemmer.

It’s not clear to me what will happen to MacCallum or her slot after Trump’s first 100 days. A show called “The Second 100 Days?”

In any event, to get a taste of Carlson, check out his deplorable (and I use that word deliberately) interview with Ezekiel Emanuel, Obamacare architect. Carlson seems all in on repealing it and the heck with those who rely on it for health insurance.

Watch it below, from the November 15, 2016 Tucker Carlson Tonight.

Outstanding news … if you are CNN or any other cable outlet in that time slot. Tucker has been a ratings loser everywhere he has went. I have total faith he will be again here. If I was Hannity, I would be ticked. First, you get pushed back an hour. Now you have a lead in who is the Tv version of the 1962 New York Mets.

I sometimes switch over to Fox in the evening to catch what they are discussing, but will not watch Sean Hannity, Jesse Watters or Tucker Carlson. It seems that Megyn frequently upset the core viewers, so this move should solidify their base, and further alienate them.

And nobody noticed a teary eyed Sean Hannity in the background. The rules are harsh at the summit of Bullshit Mountain.

What I like about Tucker C is when you run across a liberal guest who knows how to yank his chain, he unravels pretty readily.

Perfect, one racist idiot to replace another.

While I disagree with his politics I’ve never understood his popularity with viewers during his bow tie wearing days on CNN’s Crossfire and program on MSNBC that he did for a couple of years because he’s so easily predictable with how he doesn’t report the news, but spins it. His act and personality could put a pot of coffee to sleep.

I’m sure he won’t have a glass see threw desk to get viewers to stop and drool over his legs.
