According to journalist Chadwick Moore, author of Tucker Carlson’s biography, Fox News is going through chaos behind the scenes.
The cable news network reportedly cut the remaining employees from Tucker Carlson’s show.
Moore tweeted a screenshot of the email sent to Carlson’s remaining team members still at Fox News.
“Tucker Carlson’s remaining team at Fox News (nine employees) will be frog marched out of the building tonight at 9:00pm. HR will be waiting outside the control room when they finish tonight’s show to escort the remaining producers outside,” Moore said Friday.
“One former Carlson producer called it ‘Degrading!’ Here’s the email that was sent to them,” he added.

In another tweet, Moore said there are company-wide layoffs at Fox News that the network is not reporting.
“According to a current senior producer at Fox News there are company-wide layoffs happening right now that no one is reporting on,” Moore said.
The producer reportedly said “morale miserable across teams on both news and opinion.”
“Producers are also feeling ‘insulted’ about getting 0 or 1% increases the same week Abby Grossberg got $12m ‘for helping force out Tucker,'” Moore continued.
“The source also says shows are getting ‘frantic, bipolar guidance almost daily on blacklisted and unblacklisted guests, including sitting members of the Senate,'” he added.

The Blaze reports:
The development came on the same day as a highly anticipated presidential forum moderated by Tucker Carlson during which he interviewed many of the Republican candidates. Snippets of exchanges from the summit made headlines throughout the day.
Carlson left Fox News after the cable news network settled a lawsuit with Dominion Voting Systems for $787.5 million in April. He has since accused the network of breach of contract and fraud and gone on to publish a new version of his popular show directly to Twitter.
One of the trending interviews from the presidential forum includes a heated exchange with former Vice President Mike Pence.
In related news, reports confirmed Tucker Carlson plans to launch a new media venture.
Carlson is reportedly seeking $100 million in funding to begin a new media company that will likely be Twitter-based.
