Jesse Watters will host an opinion show in the time slot formerly occupied by Tucker Carlson.

This past weekend's Janet Jackson documentary was the most popular non-fiction show on Lifetime since its “Surviving R. Kelly” documentary three years ago.

Fox News Channel has named Jesse Watters as host of a 7 p.m. Eastern opinion hour, leading in to its prime-time opinion lineup of Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham.

Fox News defended Jesse Watters after he used the phrase “kill shot” in a speech urging young conservatives to conduct a hostile ambush interview with Dr. Anthony Fauci.
