Another Faux-cast off has reached out as I discovered -

Tucker Carlson Offered Job by ex-Fox Host After Leaving Network


By Giulia Carbonaro On 4/25/23 at 7:14 AM EDT


After abruptly leaving Fox News on Monday, Tucker Carlson has received an informal offer of employment from another former host of the network, Glenn Beck.

Beck discussed the departure of the Fox News' rating star on Monday on his show on the television and radio network TheBlaze, which he owns. Mentioning that he and Carlson have "become friends" over the years, Beck said he would love to have the television host working for his company.

"We would love to have you here. You won't miss a beat. And together, the two of us will tear it up. Just tear it up," he said, addressing Carlson while talking to presenter Stu Burguiere. "That would be fascinating," Burguiere, who co-hosted the show, said. "It would be," Beck replied, highlighting the hypothetical tone of the offer. "I'm sure there will be quite a large contingency of people trying to get that," Burguiere continued.

"I think that will kill Fox. I really do," said Beck. "I know so many people that, you know, still kind of like Fox. And they watch the other shows. But they're like, Tucker, Tucker is the only one that I really trust. You lose Tucker Carlson. I think that really kills them. Hey, have I reminded you to join TheBlaze?"
