Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly reacted to the network’s ratings drop after firing Tucker Carlson Monday of last week.
Kelly, who left Fox News in 2017, quote tweeted a tweet from CNN’s Brian Stelter that showed Fox News’ ratings for the 8 p.m. hour had dropped by 50% since Carlson’s firing.
“Bloodbath.” Kelly wrote. “Not even Bud Lite (which is currently giving away its beer in an effort to get ppl to pls pls drink it) lost this much of its customer base.”
Carlson was let go amid a string of problems at Fox News. He’s been getting job offers left and right. Kelly herself recently broke a story about a $100 million offer.
We reported recently that Lawrence Jones will be the temporary replacement.
It remains to be seen whether Fox News will be able to maintain its ratings without Carlson. However, Kelly’s quote tweet of Stelter’s suggests that his departure is already having a negative impact on the network.
Bud Light is indeed giving away beer. We reported on that recently here. See below:
The media landscape is constantly changing, and journalists are always looking for new ways to stay relevant. One way that some former journalists are doing this is by reporting about other former journalists.
For example, former CNN anchor Brian Stelter has been reporting on the firing of former Fox News host Tucker Carlson. Stelter has been critical of Carlson when he was at Fox News, arguing that it was a sign of the increasingly partisan nature of the media.
Another example is former Fox News host Megyn Kelly. Kelly has reported on the sexual harassment allegations against former NBC News anchor Matt Lauer. Kelly has been critical of Lauer, arguing that he should have been fired sooner. She is also staying on top of the Tucker Carlson situation.
Reporting on other former journalists can be a way for former journalists to stay relevant by staying in the news cycle. It can also be a way for them to share their opinions on current events and to shape the public discourse.
Of course, there are some risks associated with reporting on other former journalists. For example, it can be seen as gossip or as a way to settle scores. It is important for former journalists to be careful about how they report on other former journalists, and to make sure that they are reporting on the facts.
Overall, reporting on other former journalists can be a way for former journalists to stay relevant and to shape the public discourse. However, it is important for them to be careful about how they do it, and to make sure that they are reporting on the facts.
Here are some additional thoughts on how former journalists are staying relevant by reporting about other former journalists:
- This trend is likely to continue as the media landscape continues to evolve.
- It is a way for former journalists to stay in the news cycle and to shape the public discourse.

Kelly has been largely supportive of Carlson:
It’ll be interesting to see what happens next in the world of media shakeups and Twitter journalist drama.
