One of America’s most well-known, successful, and polarizing media personalities, Tucker Carlson is currently a free agent after a recent split with Fox News. Per one report, in the aftermath of a massive settlement payment to Dominion Voting Systems, Fox News decided to part ways with the massively popular host of Tucker Carlson Tonight. While rumors are circulating on the root cause of this breakup, stemming from Carlson’s texts regarding former President Donald Trump to a “fire sale by Fox News following the settlement.” The bottom line is Carlson is on the open market. With that said, odds are now posted on Bovada’s website offering action on the media host’s next venture. The results of these betting markets are mutually exclusive per Bovada’s site.
In this article, SBS will be going over what to look for from the latest news coming from Bovada and also more notes and information about using the site.
According to one report, Bovada has a variety of betting markets related to Carlson’s next role and other related prop bets. For instance, one prop currently available is “Fox to confirm Tucker Carlson exit is part of the Dominion Voting Systems defamation settlement terms” at +200. Moreover, the site has it at +300 for him to get a permanent late-night talk show host slot later this year. Conversely, Bovada has it slated at +500 for Carlson to garner a permanent Spotify video podcast later in 2023.
Regarding some more long-shot scenarios, Bovada has drummed up some interesting situations for Carlson to potentially get himself into. For example, the site has a scenario where Carlson could guest host the Daily Show later this year at +1500 if it were to happen. Another long-shot situation, although not the longest one per Bovada, is the media host was to confirm a run for U.S. President at +1600. While this is certainly a stretch to some, it is not the most out-of-the-question betting market at Bovada. The hypothetical situation with the biggest odds for Carlson is if he does a televised interview with Oprah Winfrey later this year at +6000.
Per Bovada’s main site and one other source, there are a handful of suitors that have risen to the top of where Carlson’s new permanent gig will be next. According to the site, One America News is the favorite at +175 to land the services of the award-winning media host. After that, Newsmax at +200 and MSNBC (+400) are the other notable outlets that could wind up locking down Carlson. Among the other notable entries on this list are Russia Today (+2000), Blaze TV (+4000), and ESPNews at +5000. The bottom-ranked entry though for this prop bet category is CNN at +10000. This will certainly be an intriguing storyline as 2023 moves along.
In addition to prop betting markets surrounding Carlson, Bovada also has unveiled some Fox News closing stock price betting markets for New Year’s Eve of 2023. The best bet for this market is “under $25” per share at +175 followed by “$25 to $29.99” per share. Per one outlet, FOXA is trading around $32.64, so the betting markets above are assuming a drop in value again for Fox News.
