Two well-known cable news hosts are no longer with their respective channels.

Fox News announced Monday that the network and host Tucker Carlson had “agreed to part ways.” The last broadcast of “Tucker Carlson Tonight” aired last Friday. No explanation was offered as to why the decision was made.

Around the same time, CNN announced that host Don Lemon was no longer with the company. The company also did not explain the dismissal.

So what happens next? News 12 New Jersey spoke with longtime TV news executive and Montclair State University professor Mark Effron about these developments.
