Prior to its start, Fox News said that the show “will feature him speaking with ordinary people that don’t usually have a platform.”
Jones said: “I really want to serve them, but also, that is like my compass. If the people back home can’t understand the content I’m putting out, then I’m really not serving the audience.”
Is Lawrence Jones replacing Tucker Carlson?
As Page Six reported, Jones will be temporarily replacing Tucker Carlson after the 53-year-old left the network following his last appearance on April 21, 2023.
On Monday, May 1, he will take over hosting duties for the 8pm slot that was previously reserved for Carlson, who hosted Tucker Carlson Tonight since 2016.
A “media insider” told Page Six: “Fox News is trying out a rotating list of anchors in Tucker’s spot — this week it has been Fox & Friends’ Brian Kilmeade — but it is significant that they have chosen Jones to step up so soon after Tucker’s departure.”
