Fox News shakeup may harm Laura Ingraham.

Major Changes to Fox News Prime-Time Lineup Could Leave One Host Without a Show

Fox News is planning to shake up its prime-time lineup following the firing of host Tucker Carlson. According to the Daily Beast, the network is planning to give Carlson’s old 8 p.m. Eastern time slot to Sean Hannity. Jesse Watters would assume Hannity’s 9 p.m. slot, with Greg Gutfeld following at 10 p.m. Laura Ingraham, who currently hosts the 10 p.m. show, would be bumped out of prime time under the arrangement.

While a Fox spokesperson indicated that no lineup had been finalized, rumors have been circulating that a prime-time shakeup would lead Fox to cut ties with Ingraham. However, Fox has denied these rumors, stating that Ingraham is a prominent host and integral part of the Fox News lineup.

Fox’s Ratings Decline Significantly After Carlson’s Firing

Viewers of Carlson, who was once the highest-rated host on Fox, have turned off the conservative-leaning channel, with many suspecting that his firing was an act of political censorship on the part of Fox executives. In the aftermath of his firing, a rotating cast of fill-in hosts has appeared on a “Fox News Tonight” broadcast at 8 p.m.

Despite the shakeup, Carlson has announced that he’s planning a show that will be released on Twitter, potentially competing with his old Fox peer Hannity for conservative audiences.
