Biographer Chadwick Moore claimed that so far, nine former staffers had left Fox News to work for the recently-ousted but still popular host Tucker Carlson.
Moore — whose current project is a biography of the former “Tucker Carlson Tonight” host — broke the news in a tweet on Saturday, saying, “My sources have now told me *NINE* former Tucker Carlson Tonight staffers have left Fox News to join Tucker on his next venture. There are others who are waiting to leave as soon as a role opens up for them with Tucker. Each of the 9 approached Tucker, not the other way around.”
“Good, I hope he took the Chyron guy. He’s my hero,” one woman responded, referencing the network employee who was responsible for a recent graphic referring to President Joe Biden as a “wannabe dictator.”
Moore responded with just two words: “He did.”
Moore elaborated in a separate thread, naming the staffer responsible for that chyron and saying that he had, in fact, left the network to work with Carlson again.
“The Based Chyron Guy, Alex McCaskill, was a former Tucker Carlson Tonight producer who has now left Fox News after ten years, en route to joining Tucker’s new team. He is one of at least three former producers who have left Fox to join Tucker’s new venture,” Moore explained.
Moore went on to say that it was not just Carlson’s former employees — many of whom had been with the show for the entire seven-year run — who were lining up to leave Fox News. According to his sources, some of Carlson’s regular guests were even saying that they would not appear on the network in his absence.
“Also, quietly, many familiar faces from Tucker Carlson Tonight are refusing to appear on Fox News since Tucker was bizarrely pulled off the air — and not just the ones who got blacklisted for writing a book about him!” he said.
