Newsmax has mind-boggling viewer surge after Fox News fires Tucker

Media / By / / 1 minute of reading

According to figures released by Newsmax, its audience took a drastic turn upward, with viewership increasing by 187 percent — an insane figure! 

The conservative television network says it increased by 216 percent in female viewers, while adults age 35 to 64 increased by 195 percent. 

The massive viewer surge comes after Fox News fired its most popular host, Tucker Carlson, who held the 8:00 p.m. timeslot with his show, Tucker Carlson Tonight. 

Newsmax host Greg Kelly wrote on Twitter, “WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! GO NEWSMAX and THANK YOU for WATCHING!!!!!!!!!!!!”

It is unclear what direction Tucker Carlson will take in his next move after the ouster with his former television network, which profited nicely from his show while he was the host.

Currently, a few names are being thrown around for Carlson’s replacement on his former show.
