According to reports, Tucker Carlson, the former anchor of Fox News, has purportedly inked a $400 million contract with ABC to lead a new late-night program.
This surprising development has political analysts and media aficionados abuzz. This new show will take the place of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on ABC’s late-night roster,
which has been there for over 20 years. A diverse array of emotions have been provoked in the political and entertainment spheres by the move,
which signifies a substantial change in the network’s approach to programming. Strangely enough, Tucker Carlson,
who has become famous for his vehement conservative views and prime-time appearances on Fox News, is now joining ABC.
Given ABC’s reputation for being on the center-right side of issues, this decision comes as a surprise.
