Jesse Watters host of "The Five" interviews Jenna Bush Hager and Barbara Bush during "The Five" at Fox News Studios on November 13, 2017 in New York City.
Fox News has named Jesse Watters as the newest star of its 8 p.m.
ET primetime slot, as the network looks to boost ratings two months after ousting Tucker Carlson from the post.
He is currently the host of the 7 p.m. opinion show "Jesse Watters Primetime," and appears regularly on "The Five," one of Fox News' highest rated programs.
There was no sendoff for Carlson and his "Tucker Carlson Tonight," which had long been one of Fox's most-watched shows.
