Fox News host Tucker Carlson confirmed that he was no longer a host for Fox News on Monday, Apr. 24. The news came after Don Lemon, CNN host, reportedly parted ways with his network.

The announcement was unexpected because hours before confirmation of Carlson's departure, Fox News was still promoting his primetime show, Politico reported.
