Tucker Carlson departs Fox News following Dominion lawsuit revelations.

Fox News has cut ties with its top-rated prime-time host Tucker Carlson, less than a week after the network settled a defamation lawsuit from Dominion Voting Systems. Carlson's private messages were among hundreds of internal communications made public in the course of the lawsuit that caused angst and embarrassment for Fox. Carlson's comments about Fox management, as revealed in the Dominion case, played a role in his departure from Fox. Fox said that the 8 p.m. time slot, which Carlson has held since April 2017, will be filled on an interim basis by "rotating Fox News personalities until a new host is named."
