O&#8217;Connor expressed, &#8220;I think he could probably be successful in any of the timeslots. I mean, we were on at 3 in the morning East Coast time when we did Red Eye and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/japan-bans-new-entries-of-foreigners-after-virus-variant-arrives\/\" title=\"Japan bans new entries of foreigners after virus variant arrives\">people found<\/a> us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gutfeld initially joined Fox News in 2007 as a contributor and hosted the 3 a.m. panel show called Red Eye. After leaving the program in 2015, he went on to host The Greg Gutfeld Show on a weekly basis until 2021 when his daily late-night show, <strong>Gutfeld!<\/strong>, premiered.<\/p>\n<p>In April, Fox News announced the unexpected departure of prime-time host Tucker Carlson. The network spokesperson stated, &#8220;FOX News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways. We thank him for his service to the network as a host and prior to that as a contributor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As of now, Fox News has not announced a replacement for the 8 p.m. hour and is currently featuring various contributors in rotation. Meanwhile, Tucker Carlson has launched a new show on Twitter, posting five episodes so far.<\/p>\n<p>However, it has been reported that Fox News sent Carlson a cease and desist letter, claiming that his content is contractually exclusive to the network until December 31, 2024. Additionally, several former Fox News staffers from Tucker Carlson Tonight have reportedly left the network to join his Twitter program.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">Click here<\/a> to read more from The Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The star of Fox News&#8217;s Gutfeld! show, Greg Gutfeld, has contemplated taking over Tucker Carlson&#8217;s role on the network.
