Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson is raising funds to start a new media venture, Puck News reported.
Carlson is reportedly fundraising for the venture with a “vast majority” of his former Fox News staff set to join him.
“It’s increasingly possible that the Twitter show is a top-of-funnel play for other things Tucker may soon have cooking,” Puck News’ Dylan Byers wrote. “In fact, I am told he is raising capital to launch a new company that may yet prove more influential.”
“Tucker’s new media play might – if executed adroitly – serve as a paradigm for a generation of TV news personalities with huge followings and fandoms who remain marooned to their desks amid shrinking audiences,” he continued.
