Интерфейс медиаизданияFoxNewsNikki Haley: It's time we start to take our country backFormer South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley claps back at Ana Navarro's attack and gives some insight into her plans for 2024 on 'Hannity.'Two and a half months after the midterm elections, traditionally the starting point for the next presidential election cycle, former President Trump’s the only major Republican to declare his candidacy for the GOP nomination.But behind the scenes — far from the spotlight and media headlines — likely and potential Republican White House hopefuls are making moves, which include apparent elbowing between some of the more well-known contenders.On Friday, former Vice President Mike Pence’s team nabbed a top adviser to a likely rival for the nomination — former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, who served alongside Pence in former President Donald Trump’s administration as ambassador to the United Nations.Tim Chapman, who had been working as executive director of a political advocacy group aligned with Haley, joined Pence's team to serve as a senior adviser on the former vice president’s Advancing American Freedom non-profit.TRUMP'S IN, BUT WHERE'S EVERYBODY ELSE? WHY THE 2024 GOP PRESIDENTIAL RACE IS OFF TO A SLOW STARTFormer Vice President Mike Pence meets with social conservative leaders and activists on the morning of the annual March for Life rally opposing legalized abortion in Washington, D.C., Jan. 20, 2023. (Andrea Hanks for Advancing American Freedom)"I am grateful for my time working with Nikki Haley and her dedicated team," Chapman said in a statement. Chapman's working relationship with Pence dates back two decades to when he served at the conservative Heritage Foundation and Pence was a congressman from Indiana."Advancing American Freedom is one of the fastest growing and increasingly influential conservative groups in the nation, and I am thrilled to join the incredible team that is building AAF as a leader for commonsense conservative policies that will help restore America," Chapman said. Pence described Chapman as "one of the brightest stars in the conservative movement, and we are so thrilled he’s joining the team to advance the cause of American culture, American opportunity and American leadership."Team Haley released a cordial statement, with Betsy Ankney of Haley’s Stand for America PAC saying, "Chapman is terrific, and we’re happy he found a great spot to continue to advocate for conservative policy ideas."Nikki Haley, former ambassador to the United Nations and former South Carolina governor, during the Republican Jewish Coalition Annual Leadership Meeting in Las Vegas, Nov. 19, 2022.  (Ronda Churchill/Bloomberg via Getty Images)But the pilfering of Chapman comes as the likely contenders are starting to recruit and staff up not only in their headquarters but also in the crucial early voting states, like Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada, which hold the first four contests in the GOP 2024 presidential nominating calendar.Pence was seen by Fox News during his visit last month to New Hampshire walking to meet with a couple of seasoned Republican strategists and operatives. "Whether it’s New Hampshire, Iowa or South Carolina, there’s always a finance component, a press component and a political component," a source in the former vice president’s wider political orbit told Fox News. "A big part of that political component is spending time building relationships with the folks in these early states that know how to get things done."2024 WATCH: THE BURGEONING GOP BATTLE FOR SOCIAL CONSERVATIVE VOTERSThe recruiting and staff building is a time-honored tradition in presidential politics."There’s a finite pool of talent for presidential campaigns available, and in large, multi-candidate fields there’s intense competition for them. You see this before every presidential cycle when there’s an open shot at the nomination," Ryan Williams, a longtime Republican consultant and veteran of multiple presidential campaigns, told Fox News."Additionally, even though President Trump starts as the front-runner for the Republican nomination, there’s a lot of trepidation among staffers about working for him. He’s been volatile in the past, and staff haven’t always ended their service with him on great terms. So there’s a desire to look at some of the other candidates in the field and jump on board."Williams emphasized that "now’s the time. We’re early in the process. People who join now are going to get some of the top positions and reap the benefits if the candidate goes on to win the nomination and the White House. The earlier you get in, the more upside you have."File photos of former Ambassador and Governor Nikki Haley (left) and former Vice President Mike Pence  (AP)Pence and Haley may soon be facing off on the campaign trail.The former vice president, who’s crisscrossing the country on a book tour for his new memoir "So Help Me God," has been making the moves needed ahead of launching a presidential campaign.And Haley, who’s long publicly mulled a White House run, said a few days ago in an interview on Fox News' "Special Report" that "I think we need a young generation to come in, step up and really start fixing things. …Can I be that leader? Yes, I think I can be that leader."Behind the scenes, there’s been strained relations between some in the Pence and Haley camps dating back to the 2020 Trump-Pence re-election campaign, when rumors surfaced that Haley would replace Pence as the president’s running mate.Former Trump Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who’s also likely to launch a presidential bid, mentions in his upcoming autobiography the suggestions Haley was behind the jockeying to potentially replace Pence.Haley, in her Fox News interview with Brett Baier, called such claims "lies and gossip."Asked about the episode and the latest comments, a source in Pence world wrote "lol" in responding to Fox News’ Rich Edson.Trump's poll positionMore than two years after his 2020 election defeat at the hands of Joe Biden, Trump remains the most influential politician and ferocious fundraiser in the Republican Party. Until recently, he was the clear and overwhelming front-runner in the early 2024 GOP presidential nomination polls.But in a handful of public opinion polls released last month, Trump trailed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a potential Republican White House hopeful whose standing with conservatives across the country has soared the past three years.Last week, after the release of a new slate of surveys that indicated the former president holding a double-digit lead over DeSantis and the rest of the possible GOP nomination field in hypothetical primary matchups, the main Trump-aligned super PAC touted the results."Multiple polls conducted this past week show President Trump with a commanding lead over the field of potential Republican presidential primary candidates. Poll after poll confirms that President Trump is the leader of the Republican Party," a Make America Great Again (MAGA) Inc. release to supporters argued.Former President Trump at his Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Fla., Nov. 15, 2022, formally announcing he is entering the 2024 presidential race. (Eva Marie Uzcategui/Bloomberg via Getty Images)Following November’s elections, the former president took plenty of incoming fire over his role in the GOP’s lackluster performance in the midterms due to his elevation of polarizing candidates who lost key statewide races. He received some unfavorable reviews following his mid-November campaign launch at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida, and faced plenty of criticism over controversial comments and actions the past two months.But with recent electoral history as a guide, it’s politically unwise to count Trump out."Saving America from Joe Biden and the Democrats is going to take bold leadership and transformative change — it’s not a job for untested career politicians," MAGA Inc.’s Taylor Budowich argued in a statement to Fox News."President Trump will not only dominate the Republican primary, but he will unite the nation around his America First agenda that produced generational economic prosperity, global peace and safe communities. MAGA Inc. will ensure any RINOs or self-serving politicians who decide to challenge President Trump are exposed and their political futures are extinguished for good."Trump holds his first 2024 campaign event of the new year next weekend in South Carolina.Приложение 2FoxNewsThe White House announced Wednesday that President Biden has been briefed on the massive FAA outage, though asserting that there’s no evidence it was caused by any cyberattack. "The President has been briefed by the Secretary of Transportation this morning on the FAA system outage," White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre tweeted before 7:40 a.m. ET. "There is no evidence of a cyberattack at this point, but the President directed DOT [Department of Transportation] to conduct a full investigation into the causes. The FAA will provide regular updates."An FAA system failure prompted massive flight delays Wednesday morning. All domestic departures were grounded until 9 a.m. ET, though the Federal Aviation Administration said some departures were resuming at Newark Liberty and Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson airports "due to air traffic congestion in those areas." The FAA said it was working to fully restore the Notice to Air Missions system following an outage. BIDEN WANTS YOU TO WALK, BIKE MORE TO ELIMINATE TRANSPORTATION EMISSIONS BY 2050There is a growing chorus of pilots who call today's FAA ground stop of all U.S. flights an "overreaction."Multiple pilots who spoke to Fox News under the condition of anonymity say there are plenty of backup systems in place, such as the radio to be able to send non-emergency advisories, similar to what is found in the NOTAMS (Notice to Air Missions, formerly known as Notice to Airmen). Приложение 3. Кейс-стади «Выборы в США 2024»FoxNewsSchiff called the level of detail in special counsel Jack Smith's indictment of Trump 'stunning'Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said the "stunning" detail of the Justice Department's indictment of former President Donald Trump shows Trump had "maligned intent" when he took classified documents to Mar-a-Lago after leaving the White House."The most difficult element to prove often is, what did the defendant intend?" Schiff told MSNBC host Nicole Wallace in an interview Friday. "But here Donald Trump has made so crystal clear in the conversations that are recorded, in the instructions he gives to his aides to move the boxes, in his deceitfulness with his own attorneys. It's just so graphic."Schff, a former federal prosecutor and an impeachment manager during Trump's first impeachment trial, said it was not a difficult decision for special counsel Jack Smith to bring charges against Trump. "The evidence laid out in this indictment is so powerful that I don't think special counsel had any choice but to go forward," he said.Trump was indicted on 37 federal counts related to the classified documents the FBI recovered from Mar-a-Lago last August, including willful retention of national defense information, conspiracy to obstruct justice and false statements. TRUMP INDICTED ON 37 FEDERAL COUNTS OUT OF SPECIAL COUNSEL JACK SMITH'S INVESTIGATION INTO CLASSIFIED RECORDSRep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said the level of detail in special counsel Jack Smith's indictment of former President Donald Trump is "stunning."  (Drew Angerer/Getty Images)Special Counsel Jack Smith unsealed the indictment against the former president on Friday, emphasizing the "gravity" of the crimes Trump has been charged with as a result of his investigation. "I invite everyone to read it in full to understand the scope and the gravity of the crimes charged," Smith said Friday as the indictment was unsealed. "The men and woman of the United States intelligence community and armed forces dedicate their lives to protecting our nation, and its laws that protect national defense information are critical to the safety and security of the United States, and they must be enforced," Smith said. "Violations of those laws put our country at risk."Trump announced he had been indicted on Thursday night on Truth Social. The former president told Fox News Digital he will plead not guilty. SPECIAL COUNSEL JACK SMITH POINTS TO ‘GRAVITY’ OF CRIMES TRUMP IS CHARGED WITHFormer US President Donald Trump was indicted on 37 federal counts, including willful retention of national defense information, conspiracy to obstruct justice and false statements.  (Al Drago/Bloomberg via Getty Images)The indictment states that Trump kept classified documents from his time in the White House in cardboard boxes brought to Mar-a-Lago. These boxes "included information regarding defense and weapons capabilities of both the United States and foreign countries; United States nuclear programs; potential vulnerabilities of the United States and its allies to military attack; and plans for possible retaliation in response to a foreign attack," according to the indictment. The special counsel alleges that Trump showed classified documents to individuals without a security clearance on two separate occasions in 2021. The indictment cites an audio recording of Trump showing off classified documents to several people in July 2021 at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, with Trump acknowledging the materials were still "a secret." The indictment states that on several occasions Trump "endeavored to obstruct the FBI and grand jury investigations and conceal his continued retention of classified documents" by suggesting that his attorney "falsely represent to the FBI and grand jury" that he "did not have documents called for by the grand jury subpoena." Trump is also accused of suggesting that his attorney "hide or destroy documents called for by the grand jury subpoena" and instructing his aide, Waltine Nauta, to move boxes of documents while claiming to be cooperating with investigators. Nauta was indicted on six federal counts as a "co-conspirator." Приложение 4.Интерфейс медиапубликацииcUSATodayПриложение 5.

He was said to be surprised by the move.Tucker Carlson was one of Fox’s most popular prime time hosts.Credit...Rebecca Noble for The New York TimesJeremy W. Peters, Katie Robertson and Michael M. GrynbaumHere is the latest on Tucker Carlson’s departure from Fox News.Fox News on Monday dismissed Tucker Carlson, its most popular prime-time host and one of the most influential voices on the American right.The network made the announcement less than a week after it agreed to pay $787.5 million in a defamation lawsuit in which Mr. Carlson’s show, one of the highest rated on Fox, figured prominently for its role in spreading misinformation after the 2020 election.Mr. Carlson’s program became a must-watch for conservatives during the presidency of Donald J. Trump, an ideological ally and occasional confidant of Mr. Carlson’s. Both men helped push hard-right positions on issues like immigration reform and race relations into the Republican mainstream, and both relished antagonizing their political opponents with audacious and often untrue attacks.Here is what else to know:The decision to let Mr. Carlson go was made on Friday night by Lachlan Murdoch, the chief executive officer of Fox Corporation and the son of its co-founder, Rupert Murdoch, and by Suzanne Scott, chief executive of Fox News Media, according to a person briefed on the move.Mr. Carlson was given no heads-up that his time at Fox News was drawing to an end, according to two people with knowledge of the timing of the conversation. The anchor was told of the network’s decision on Monday morning, and his senior executive producer, Justin Wells, was also out of a job.A Fox spokeswoman said Mr. Carlson’s show would be replaced with a new program called “Fox News Tonight” that would feature rotating Fox News personalities until a new host is named. Brian Kilmeade was the first host on Monday night, but he said little of Mr. Carlson beyond wishing him well.Mr. Carlson is also facing a lawsuit from a former Fox News producer, Abby Grossberg, who claims that he presided over a misogynistic and discriminatory workplace culture. Ms. Grossberg said in the lawsuit, which was filed in March, that on her first day working for Mr. Carlson, she discovered the work space was decorated with large pictures of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi wearing a swimsuit.In April 2022, The New York Times examined how Mr. Carlson positioned himself to inherit the movement that grew around President Trump as he constructed what may be the most racist show in the history of cable news.The power that Tucker Carlson wielded outside Fox News could not insulate him from a growing list of troubles inside the network related to his conduct on and off the air, some of which had been grating on Lachlan Murdoch, the chief executive of Fox Corporation, and his father, Rupert Murdoch, the chairman of Fox Corporation, who co-founded the network in 1996, according to two people with knowledge of the company’s decision.The decision to let Carlson go was made on Friday night by Lachlan Murdoch and Suzanne Scott, chief executive of Fox News Media, according to a person briefed on the move.Brian Kilmeade hosts the first installment of “Fox News Tonight” in Tucker Carlson’s former 8 p.m. slot. In brief comments about Carlson, he tells viewers: “I wish Tucker the best. I’m great friends with Tucker and always will be.”John KoblinCarlson’s program brought in far more ad revenue than other Fox prime-time shows.ImageTucker Carlson’s show took in $77.5 million in ad revenue last year, dwarfing his Fox News prime-time colleagues as well as competitors on CNN and MSNBC, according to the Vivvix research firm.Credit...John Taggart for The New York TimesThe abrupt cancellation of “Tucker Carlson Tonight” will come at a cost for Fox News.Mr. Carlson’s prime-time show brought in $77.5 million in advertising revenue last year, dwarfing his Fox News prime-time colleagues as well as his main competitors on CNN and MSNBC, according to Vivvix, a research firm.Last year, Anderson Cooper’s 8 p.m. program on CNN had ad revenue of $50.7 million, while MSNBC’s “All In With Chris Hayes” brought in $30.9 million, according to Vivvix data.Meanwhile, Sean Hannity’s 9 p.m. Fox News show took in $50.4 million, and “The Ingraham Angle” had ad revenue of $53.7 million.“Tucker Carlson Tonight” also had a bigger year-to-year increase compared with those shows. Last year, the show took in $10 million more in ad revenue compared with 2021, a 15 percent jump.Tucker Carlson has not yet released a statement or spoken publicly of his firing from Fox, more than seven hours after it was announced.With Tucker Carlson’s departure from Fox News, civil rights activists and media experts expressed hope that a major force in the misinformation ecosystem had been muzzled.Credit...Rebecca Noble for The New York TimesWith his abrupt departure from Fox News on Monday, Tucker Carlson lost the megaphone that many have accused him of using to spread conspiracy theories about Covid-19 vaccines, gender identity and election integrity.Civil rights activists and media experts expressed hope that a major force in the misinformation ecosystem had been muzzled.The television host was “one of the nation’s most prolific mouthpieces for white supremacy, misinformation and misogyny,” said Bridget Todd, director of communications at the gender equity advocacy group Ultraviolet.“We are not sad to see him go,” Sarah Kate Ellis, the president and chief executive of the L.G.B.T.Q. advocacy organization GLAAD, wrote on Twitter.Mr. Carlson’s show, “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” was the most-watched show in prime-time cable news, averaging 3.25 million viewers in the first quarter of the year. He was also a prominent figure in the defamation lawsuit filed against Fox News by Dominion Voting Systems. Before the election technology company settled with the network last week for $787.5 million, it blamed stars like Mr. Carlson for giving credibility to false voter fraud narratives while privately mocking them.Yet even as Mr. Carlson’s ability to spread misinformation is likely to be “greatly diminished” without Fox News, the conspiracy theories he championed will continue to be shared, said Howard Polskin, who compiles a daily newsletter, TheRighting, which tracks conservative news outlets.“This is a weed with deep roots — just because you take away something on top of the soil, that doesn’t mean it’s not going to pop up elsewhere,” he said. “There are so many voices on the right. They’re proliferating, and they’re a lot of the time getting louder and more passionate.”Andrew Torba, who founded Gab, a social network that has become a hub for white supremacists and extremists, said Mr. Carlson should create his own digital broadcasting network “so that he no longer needs to ask permission from anyone to cover any story he wants.”The absence of an explanation from Fox News about Mr. Carlson’s exit did not prevent an outpouring of unfounded speculation about the departure, including rumors that he had been silenced by Fox.Prominent anti-vaccine skeptics, including the Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., proposed without proof that Mr. Carlson was fired for suggesting that Fox News had promoted the Covid-19 vaccine to please its pharmaceutical advertisers.Anti-vaccine activist Dr. Sherri Tenpenny also posted several messages to her 124,000 Telegram followers, suggesting that there was a conspiracy behind Mr. Tucker’s departure from Fox News. “Don’t expect #FoxNews to tell the truth, as they got rid of the only Journalist that could NOT be controlled,” she wrote.Mr. Carlson and Fox News did not immediately respond to requests for comment.Rashad Robinson, the president of the advocacy group Color of Change, worried that Fox would replace Mr. Carlson with “someone even worse” and called for more accountability for media figures who spread misinformation.“Firing Tucker Carlson doesn’t undo the damage he’s already done or signal any new direction for Fox,” Mr. Robinson said on Twitter.In an intriguing move, former President Donald J. Trump has decided on the venue for his first public comments about Tucker Carlson’s ouster: Newsmax, one of Fox News’s major rivals. Trump will appear on the channel at 9 p.m. for an interview with the Newsmax anchor Greg Kelly.Donald Trump speaking with Tucker Carlson at his New Jersey golf club, with Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene and Donald Trump Jr.Credit...Doug Mills/The New York TimesThe announcement on Monday that Fox News was parting ways with its top-rated prime-time host, Tucker Carlson, stunned people in Donald J. Trump’s orbit. The former president himself was surprised by the news, according to a person with direct knowledge, and his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., who is a close friend of Mr. Carlson’s, described the network’s decision as “mind-blowing.”“I think it changes things permanently,” Donald Trump Jr. said on “The Charlie Kirk Show,” adding that Mr. Carlson was “an actual thought leader in conservatism” and a “once-in-a-generation type talent.”The casual news observer would be forgiven for thinking that Mr. Trump and his family no longer had a relationship with Mr. Carlson, given the recent disclosures of the Fox host’s scathing private text messages, which emerged as part of the conservative network’s legal battle against Dominion Voting Systems.In early 2021, as Mr. Trump desperately tried to overturn the 2020 election, Mr. Carlson texted a confidant that he hated the president “passionately.” He also described Mr. Trump as a “demonic force.”When the texts were released in March, Mr. Trump was wounded and called Mr. Carlson to talk about them, according to a person familiar with the outreach. But the two men patched it up quickly. Since then, they have talked regularly, exchanged text messages and appeared to have a closer relationship than at any time before, according to two people close to Mr. Trump who are familiar with their relationship and who did not want to be identified to discuss their private interactions.In an interview with Greg Kelly of Newsmax that was recorded shortly after Mr. Carlson’s departure became public, Mr. Trump offered support for the former anchor. “I’m shocked. I’m surprised,” Mr. Trump said. “I think Tucker’s been terrific. He’s been, especially over the last year or so, he’s been terrific to me.”Mr. Carlson did not respond to a request for comment.Last year, some of Mr. Trump’s advisers had worried that Mr. Carlson seemed poised to support the potential presidential candidacy of Mr. Trump’s top rival, Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida. Mr. Carlson had given Mr. DeSantis plenty of airtime and praised his policies. But over the past six weeks, as Mr. Trump and Mr. Carlson spoke more often, the Trump team felt increasingly confident that Mr. Carlson would not be weighing in for Mr. DeSantis, who has been heavily promoted by Rupert Murdoch’s media properties including Fox News.The Trump team liked their odds even more when they learned that Mr. Carlson was disgusted with Mr. DeSantis’s decision, in late March, to call President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia a “war criminal.”Senator J.D. Vance, an Ohio Republican who is a close ally of both Mr. Trump and Mr. Carlson, described the Fox News host’s ousting as a shock.“Tucker is a giant, and the most powerful voice against idiotic wars and an economy that placed plutocrats over workers,” Mr. Vance said in a text message. “This is a huge loss for a conservative movement that hopes to be worthy of its own voters. I assume he’ll land on his feet and continue to have a powerful voice. If he doesn’t it will be terrible for the country.”“The best decision I ever made was leaving Fox. Good for you, @TuckerCarlson. You’re free & uncensored!” Kari Lake, a Republican who lost the governor’s race in Arizona last year, wrote in a tweet. Ms. Lake left her job as an anchor at a local Fox channel in 2021.Representative Lauren Boebert, Republican of Colorado, struck an upbeat tone in a Monday tweet: “Wherever Tucker Carlson goes, America will follow!”Joe Kent, a Republican who ran unsuccessfully for Congress in Washington State, tweeted, “Standing by for the launch of the Tucker news network, the people demand it!”One close ally of Mr. Trump said he was happy that Mr. Carlson would not be able to give rocket fuel to any other candidate on Fox’s airwaves.Yet for some candidates in the Republican primary field, the loss of Mr. Carlson could mean a minefield they would have to navigate is now gone from a prominent platform.For instance, Mr. DeSantis’s statement to Mr. Carlson weeks ago describing the Russian invasion of Ukraine as a “territorial dispute” set off alarm bells and a wave of criticism among Republicans in Washington and some donors. It represented the beginning of what has been a period of concern about Mr. DeSantis’s expected candidacy from some who had seen him as the best option to stop Mr. Trump.A Trump adviser, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the sense in Mr. Trump’s world was that any pro-Trump host at Fox News had something of a target on their back after the Dominion lawsuit.Mr. Trump’s longest-serving adviser, Roger J. Stone Jr., who is also an old friend of Mr. Carlson’s, said in an interview that Fox News had “essentially canceled the single most influential conservative commentator in the country, at the same time killing a cash cow for the network.”He predicted that Mr. Carlson would take his “massive audience” wherever he ends up next.Fox’s share price fell almost 3 percent on Monday following host Tucker Carlson’s departure, marking the network’s worst day in a run of losses since it settled with Dominion last week.The company’s share price fell below $30 per share on Monday, down roughly 4.5 percent since the start of the month.

Trump and a coalition of lawyers, lawmakers and influencers.Two days after the election, Mr. Carlson’s producer, Alex Pfeiffer, said that voices on the right were “reckless demagogues,” according to a text message. Mr. Carlson replied that his show was “not going to follow them.”But the same day, on “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” Mr. Carlson expressed some doubts about the voter fraud assertions before insisting that at least some of the claims were “credible.”On Nov. 7, 2020, Mr. Carlson privately told Mr. Pfeiffer that claims about manipulated software were “absurd.” Mr. Pfeiffer replied later that there was not enough evidence of fraud to swing the election. But during his broadcast on Nov. 9, Mr. Carlson devoted time to various theories, suggesting there could be merit to claims about software manipulation. “We don’t know, we have to find out,” he said.Mr. Carlson and other hosts also privately criticized Sidney Powell, a lawyer and conspiracy theorist who was gaining traction among the far right for her involvement in several lawsuits aimed at challenging the election results. Mr. Carlson called her claims “shockingly reckless.”Show moreWhat’s next for Tucker Carlson?

They have continued their careers elsewhere with mixed results.Bill O’Reilly, the onetime host of the Fox News show “The O’Reilly Factor,” was fired in 2017 amid a sexual harassment scandal. Mr. O’Reilly now hosts “No Spin News,” a political opinion podcast that ranks No. 71 in Apple’s top podcast charts for news shows in the United States, according to Chartable, a podcast insights company.Mr. O’Reilly also runs a news and commentary website, billoreilly.com, where he livestreams interviews with politicians, writes opinions pieces and hawks merchandise. The site had 1.2 million visits last month, according to SimilarWeb, a web traffic monitoring company. (Fox News’s flagship news site had 329 million visits during the same period.)Glenn Beck, the former Fox News host, departed in 2011 to begin his own online news venture. That included The Blaze, a news and video website that had 12 million visits last month, according to SimilarWeb. He also hosts “The Glenn Beck Program,” a radio show and podcast that ranked No. 13 in Apple’s top podcast charts for news shows in the United States, according to Chartable.Chris Cuomo, the former CNN host, was fired in 2021 amid an inquiry into his efforts to help his brother, former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo of New York, navigate sexual harassment accusations. The anchor now hosts “CUOMO” on NewsNation, a subscription television news network. The site had five million visits last month, according to SimilarWeb. Also in 2021, two top editors at NewsNation resigned amid staff complaints of a right-leaning tilt to its coverage and abysmal ratings.Ever since “Tucker Carlson Tonight” debuted, the show was a hit with Fox viewers.

Mr. Carlson assumed prime-time duties six years ago, taking Megyn Kelly’s 9 p.m. time slot after she left the network for NBC. Mr. Carlson moved to his current 8 p.m. time slot in April 2017 after Bill O’Reilly was pushed out by the network.Приложение 6. TUCKER CARLSON: If you really want to understand how powerful Big Pharma is, consider thisTucker reacts to Pfizer's alleged manipulation By TuckerCarlson | Fox NewsHow powerful exactly are the big pharmaceutical companies in this country? Well, that's a big question. There are a lot of ways to measure it, but here are a few ways you can measure it. In this country, Big Pharma can advertise its drugs directly to consumers and that's a little strange if you think about it, since consumers don't prescribe drugs, doctors do. So, why are the drugs being advertised directly to consumers?  That's allowed in only one other country on the planet, but it's allowed here. So, it may not surprise you that in this country, drug companies spend more on lobbying the Congress than any other industry, a lot more than any other industry and they don't do it by accident. They do it because it pays off. In a deal like this, a pretty remarkable deal, the drug companies have worked out with politicians. So, the government uses your tax dollars to buy billions worth of their products and then in some cases forces you to use those products. Sometimes those products work, sometimes they don't work. In some cases, those products can injure you, but no matter what happens, there's nothing you can do about it because politicians have given these companies complete immunity. If their products hurt or kill you, you can't sue them. You're not even really allowed to complain about it. That's an incredible deal. Imagine if your company had struck a deal like that with Congress. You'd probably be a lot richer than you are.  So that's power, but it pales in comparison to what we're seeing right now. If you really want to understand how powerful Big Pharma is, consider the news that did not break today. The pro-transparency news organization Project Veritas just released an undercover video of a Pfizer executive bragging on camera about how his company conducts a kind of Frankenstein science, manipulating COVID viruses for profit, imperiling potentially the entire world, doing it in secret, possibly in violation of federal law, bragging about this. So, no matter what your politics are, doesn’t matter who you voted for, that's a huge story and you would think every reporter in this country would be itching to follow up on it, calling Pfizer, telling the public about it, but no, that's not happening.  On Eve of Trial, Discovery of Carlson Texts Set Off Crisis Atop FoxPrivate messages sent by Tucker Carlson that had been redacted in legal filings showed him making highly offensive remarks that went beyond the comments of his prime-time show.The day before Dominion Voting Systems’ defamation trial against Fox News was set to begin in a Delaware courthouse, the Fox board of directors and top executives made a startling discovery that helped lead to the breaking point between the network and Tucker Carlson, one of its top stars.Private messages sent by Mr. Carlson that had been redacted in legal filings showed him making highly offensive and crude remarks that went beyond the inflammatory, often racist comments of his prime-time show and anything disclosed in the lead-up to the trial.Despite the fact that Fox’s trial lawyers had these messages for months, the board and some senior executives were now learning about their details for the first time, setting off a crisis at the highest level of the company, according to two people with knowledge of the discussions.The discovery added pressure on the Fox leadership as it sought to find a way to avoid a trial where Mr. Carlson — not to mention so many others at the network — would be questioned about the contents of the private messages they exchanged in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election.ADVERTISEMENTContinue reading the main storyTwo days after the board’s discovery, Fox settled that case for $787.5 million, believed to be the highest for a defamation trial.Several people with knowledge of Fox’s discussions said the redacted messages were a catalyst for one of the most momentous decisions Fox and its leaders — the father-son team of Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch — had made in years: to sever ties with the host of their highest-rated and highly profitable prime-time program and a face of the network in the Trump era.The company dismissed him on Monday, with a phone call from Suzanne Scott, the chief executive of Fox News Media.Tucker Carlson’s Departure From Fox NewsParting Ways: Shortly after Fox News agreed to settle a defamation lawsuit over election misinformation, the network abruptly fired Tucker Carlson, its biggest star. “The Daily” explainswhy.An Escalating Dispute: Fox News demanded that Carlson stop posting videos to Twitter, accusing him of violating the terms of his contract, which runs until early 2025.Far Right Loses a Mainstream Foothold: For years, Carlson used his Fox News show to bring right-wing ideas into Americans’ living rooms. Playing the same role in his next chapter will be much harder.Looking Back: We charted Carlson’s career as he built one of the most successful, and racist, show in the history of cable news. Herearethemaintakeaways.In the end, according to one of the people with knowledge of the internal discussions, Lachlan Murdoch viewed forcing out Mr. Carlson as a “business decision,” just as he did the Dominion settlement.Fox had no comment beyond its initial statement announcing “Fox News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways.”Editors’ PicksMr. Carlson and Bryan Freedman, a lawyer representing him, did not respond to requests for comment. On Wednesday night, Mr. Carlson posted a video on Twitter, speaking publicly for the first time since getting pushed out. Mr. Carlson did not address his exit from Fox, but railed against “completely irrelevant” debates on TV and said: “Both political parties and their donors have reached consensus on what benefits them and they actively collude to shut down any conversation about it.”He added: “When honest people say what’s true, calmly and without embarrassment, they become powerful. At the same time, the liars who have been trying to silence them shrink. They become weaker.”It is unclear why the Fox board and other executives did not know about the contents of the redacted messages until just before the trial, which was focused on whether Fox News had knowingly aired false claims about Dominion and its voting machines after the 2020 election. Unredacted portions of the documents, including some in which Mr. Carlson spoke derisively about former President Donald J. Trump, were widely reported on in the weeks before the trial.The board considered using an outside law firm to investigate the top-rated host, concerned about the harm Mr. Carlson’s behavior might cause even beyond the Dominion case, the two people said.By the time the board did see the redacted material, Lachlan Murdoch was already moving to find an out-of-court accommodation with Dominion, having given his negotiators the go-ahead to increase Fox’s offer to the company, according to one of the people briefed on the discussions.ImageOver the past two years, Rupert Murdoch, left, and his son Lachlan began to lose patience with Mr. Carlson, said people familiar with their complaints.Credit...Drew Angerer/Getty ImagesCompany executives have indicated that a variety of factors fed into the decision to fire Mr. Carlson after Fox stood by him for years as he drew protest and advertiser boycotts for trafficking in conspiracy theories and narratives of white grievance. But they acknowledge that the discovery of what was in the redacted text messages was an important factor in his ultimate dismissal.The role that the messages — produced in the Dominion discovery process — played in helping to end Mr. Carlson’s career at Fox demonstrates the severity of the damage the suit inflicted on the company. Fox was battered repeatedly by damaging disclosures as it proceeded to trial. If it had settled far earlier in the process, the company could have avoided having to hand over Mr. Carlson’s messages and those of others, including from the personal accounts of both Murdochs.Over the past two years, the Murdochs’ patience began to wear thin, said people familiar with their complaints. Mr. Carlson emerged as an almost unaccountable figure who drew new headaches with conspiracy theory programming that included falsely portraying the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol as possibly orchestrated by the federal government. Then, as the Dominion case headed to trial, he told his audience last month that the rioting was, in fact, a peaceful exercise, using security footage that the Republican Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy, had given to Mr. Carlson exclusively.Although statements made on his show represented only a small piece of the Dominion lawsuit, the disclosures related to his messages took on an outsize role and added to the company’s public relations woes.Приложение 7.Распределение зрительской аудитории новых медиа США (возраст, пол и др.)Приложение 8.As Primaries Wind Down, Here’s a Look at the Performance of Trump’s CandidatesAs the midterm primary season nears an end, candidates endorsed by former President Donald J. Trump have continued to rack up primary wins, but with a handful of prominent losses.As the midterm primary season nears an end, candidates endorsed by former President Donald J. Trump have continued to rack up primary wins, but with a handful of prominent losses.Of the more than 200 Republicans Mr. Trump has backed this year, many ran unopposed or faced little-known opponents. He has also waited to make some endorsements until a front-runner emerges, as with his last-minute endorsement of Tudor Dixon for governor of Michigan.Several of his candidates were defeated in early primaries, including in Georgia and North Carolina; more recently, he had a startling loss in a special election in Alaska. But for candidates like J.D. Vance in Ohio and Mehmet Oz in Pennsylvania, Mr. Trump’s support was crucial to securing victory. His choices also won in large numbers in two swing states, Arizona and Michigan.Here is a look at Mr. Trump’s endorsement record.Big losses for pro-impeachment RepublicansIn Wyoming, Representative Liz Cheney, by far the most prominent of the 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Mr. Trump after the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, fell to her Trump-endorsed challenger Harriet Hageman in a landslide of more than 35 percentage points.Another of the 10, Representative Peter Meijer of Michigan, lost his primary to Mr. Trump’s preferred candidate, John Gibbs.And in Washington State, Joe Kent defeated a third pro-impeachment Republican, Representative Jaime Herrera Beutler.In one exception to the trend, Representative Dan Newhouse, who also supported Mr. Trump’s impeachment, advanced over his Trump-endorsed opponent, Loren Culp, thanks largely to Washington State’s open primary system.A sweep in ArizonaA former local television news host, Kari Lake, won the Republican primary for governor with Mr. Trump’s endorsement, narrowly defeating Karrin Taylor Robson, the choice of establishment Republicans. Ms. Lake has forcefully promoted Mr. Trump’s false claims that the 2020 election was stolen.Blake Masters, a venture capitalist who has pushed a version of the “great replacement” conspiracy theory, won his Senate primary and will challenge Senator Mark Kelly, a vulnerable Democrat, in November.State Representative Mark Finchem, who is affiliated with the far-right Oath Keepers militia group and said before the primary that he would not concede if he lost, won the Republican nomination for secretary of state, a position in which he would oversee Arizona elections.PoliticsAcrossthe United StatesA Contentious Lawmaking Season: With single-party statehouse control at its highest level in decades, legislators across much of America leaned into cultural issues and bulldozed the opposition.Oregon’s Political Breakdown: Bipartisan collaboration was once a point of pride in the state. But Republicans have brought the Oregon Senate to a halt with a political boycott.A Tale of Two Cities: Mayor Francis Suarez of Miami has been mulling a Republican presidential run built on the premise that his city has boomed in difficult times. But a trial against a city commissioner has exposed some of the city’s less attractive inner workings.And David Farnsworth won a State Senate primary against Rusty Bowers, the Arizona House speaker who drew Trump supporters’ fury for resisting efforts to overturn the 2020 election and for testifying before the Jan. 6 congressional committee.A high-profile loss in AlaskaSarah Palin, the Trump-aligned former governor and vice-presidential nominee, lost a special House election to Mary Peltola, a Democrat — a major upset in a state as Republican as Alaska, though Ms. Palin will have a second chance in November.How Trump’s Endorsements Elevate Election Lies and Inflate His Political PowerThe former president’s endorsements have been focused more on personal politics than on unseating Democrats.Mixed results in WisconsinMr. Trump’s preferred candidate, Tim Michels, won the Republican primary for governor, defeating former Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch.But Robin Vos, the powerful speaker of the Wisconsin Assembly, fended off a challenge — barely — from Adam Steen, a Trump endorsee who had called for eliminating most absentee and early voting in the state and for decertifying the 2020 election.In Georgia, several losses and one victoryGov. Brian Kemp easily defeated former Senator David Perdue, Mr. Trump’s handpicked candidate, in the Republican primary for governor. Mr. Kemp became a Trump target after he refused to overturn the president’s loss in the state in 2020. He will face Stacey Abrams, the Democrat he narrowly defeated four years ago.Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, who refused Mr. Trump’s demand to “find” additional votes after his 2020 loss, also defeated a Trump-endorsed challenger, Representative Jody Hice.In a primary runoff for an open seat in Georgia’s Sixth Congressional District, Rich McCormick, a physician and retired Marine, defeated the Trump-backed candidate Jake Evans, the former chairman of the state’s ethics commission and the son of a Trump administration ambassador.The former professional football star Herschel Walker, who was endorsed by Mr. Trump, dominated a Senate primary and will face Senator Raphael Warnock, a Democrat, in the general election.Victories in PennsylvaniaAfter a close race that prompted a recount, Mehmet Oz, Mr. Trump’s choice, won a Senate primary, narrowly defeating David McCormick.Doug Mastriano, a state senator and retired Army colonel who has promoted false claims about the 2020 election and attended the protest leading up to the Capitol riot, won the Republican nomination for governor. Mr. Trump had endorsed him just a few days before the primary.Two wins and a loss in North CarolinaRepresentative Ted Budd won the Republican nomination for Senate, and Bo Hines, a 26-year-old political novice who enthralled Mr. Trump, was catapulted to victory in his primary for a House seat outside Raleigh.But Representative Madison Cawthorn crumbled under the weight of repeated scandals and blunders. He was ousted in his primary, a rejection of a Trump-endorsed candidate. Voters chose Chuck Edwards, a state senator.A split in South Carolina House racesRepresentative Tom Rice, one of the 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Mr. Trump, was ousted by his Trump-backed challenger, State Representative Russell Fry, in the Seventh Congressional District.But Representative Nancy Mace defeated her Trump-endorsed opponent, the former state lawmaker Katie Arrington, in the First Congressional District. Ms. Mace had said that Mr. Trump bore responsibility for the Jan. 6 attack but did not vote to impeach him.A win for election deniers in NevadaAdam Laxalt won a primary to face Senator Catherine Cortez Masto, who is seen as one of the most vulnerable Democrats this fall. Mr. Laxalt, a former attorney general, was endorsed by Mr. Trump and had helped lead his efforts to overturn the presidential election results in Nevada.Joseph Lombardo, the Las Vegas sheriff, won the Republican nomination for governor and will face the incumbent, Gov. Steve Sisolak, a Democrat.Victories in Maryland and Illinois, with outside helpDan Cox, a first-term state legislator who embraced Mr. Trump’s lies about the 2020 election, handily defeated Kelly Schulz — a protégé of Gov. Larry Hogan, a leader of the Republican Party’s anti-Trump wing — in the party’s primary for governor in Maryland. Mr. Cox benefited from more than $1 million in advertising from the Democratic Governors Association, which helped his primary campaign in hopes that he would be easier to defeat in the general election.State Senator Darren Bailey, who received a last-minute endorsement from Mr. Trump, won the Republican primary for governor in Illinois after similar spending by Democrats, including Gov. J.B. Pritzker.Also in Illinois, Representative Mary Miller, endorsed by Mr. Trump months ago, won her House primary against fellow Representative Rodney Davis after redistricting put them in the same district.Victories in OhioThe Senate candidate J.D. Vance defeated a field of well-funded rivals, nearly all of whom pitched themselves as Trump-like Republicans. Mr. Vance, an author and venture capitalist, had transformed himself from a self-described “never-Trump guy” in 2016 to a Trump-supported “America First” candidate in 2022.Max Miller, a former Trump aide who denied assault allegations from an ex-girlfriend and was later endorsed by Mr. Trump, won his House primary.Mr. Trump also endorsed Madison Gesiotto Gilbert, a lawyer who had been a surrogate for his presidential campaign. She won a seven-way primary for a congressional seat.A loss in IdahoGov. Brad Little overcame Mr. Trump’s endorsement of the state’s lieutenant governor, Janice McGeachin, who was challenging him in the Republican primary.A victory in West VirginiaRepresentative Alex Mooney prevailed over Representative David McKinley in a newly drawn congressional district. Mr. Trump’s backing was seen as the decisive factor.Приложение 9.Контент-анализ новостного блока по кейс-стади «Увольнение Такера Карлсона»
