Tucker Carlson biographer Chadwick Moore said at least nine former Fox News employees have left the cable news network to work alongside Carlson again on his new show.
In April, Fox News announced it had parted ways with Carlson. Since Carlson left, the network has suffered a decline in its key prime-time viewing audience, while his new Twitter show episodes have slayed cable ratings, attracting several million views.

“My sources have now told me NINE former Tucker Carlson Tonight staffers have left Fox News to join Tucker on his next venture,” Moore tweeted. “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.”

Moore also said the former Fox News producer who was fired for allowing a chyron labeling President Joe Biden a “Wannabe Dictator” to air is among those who are now working for Carlson.
Tucker Carlson’s team at Fox was extremely close. Most of them were there from the launch of the show until it’s end, and they’ve stood by their boss in the aftermath. I write about it in my book https://t.co/bIUKaSo2Dv

Fox News recently sent Carlson a cease-and-desist letter, demanding the former network host stop releasing shows on Twitter.
