Starting
Today, It’s ‘Tucker’
Starting
today, The Situation with Tucker Carlson is simply "Tucker."
The program has a new name, a new timeslot, and a new emphasis. Starting
today, Tucker will air at 4pm, and repeat at 6pm. (Expect the show to go live
at 6pm on breaking news days.)
A couple weeks ago, Scott Collins
reported that "Carlson will do more "media critiques" in
addition to political talk and opinion. 'He'll look at how everyone is
covering stories,' one insider said."
Eat the Press' Rachel Sklar
says the segment will be called "Beat the Press." Also: The show
"will focus more on Carlson's personality -- which means less use of
outside commentators like Situation regulars Rachel Maddow
and Max Kellerman (both are still expected to
contribute to the show at times, but the focus will be on Carlson)."
MSNBC has also increased the size of the show's staff, TVNewser
has learned. Sounds like Tucker has a fan in Jeff
Zucker...
