Fox News’ 8 p.m. hour has faced an exodus of viewers in the aftermath of Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson’s unexpected departure from the network.
Carlson’s first replacement host, Brian Kilmeade, performed better earlier in the week, netting 2.59 million viewers Monday. However, he suffered a significant viewership decline Tuesday, managing only 1.7 million viewers. By Wednesday, Kilmeade netted just 1.3 million, while MSNBC host Chris Hayes notched 1.38 million viewers the same night.
