After Fox News announced on Monday it had parted ways with primetime host Tucker Carlson, numerous people took to social media to announce they would stop watching the cable news network and cancel their subscriptions to its streaming service Fox Nation.
Carlson, who had led a popular primetime show on the network called “Tucker Carlson Tonight” since 2016, had been a fixture on the news channel even before then. Carlson’s conservative news commentary program had been one of the network’s most successful shows and regularly garnered more than 3 million viewers per episode.
