In the wake of Tucker Carlson’s sudden exit from Fox News, ratings for the cable news channel’s 8 p.m. time slot saw a major drop on April 24 and especially April 25.

The former host of “Tucker Carlson Tonight” generated more than 3.3 million viewers nightly, according to Nielsen data. “Fox News Tonight,” the show replacing Carlson’s program, drew just 2.6 million viewers—about a 20 percent drop—in the coveted Monday evening time slot, The Hollywood Reporter said.
