Megyn Kelly encouraged fellow former Fox News host Tucker Carlson to “walk away” from his agreement with the network and let them “take him to court” following reports that Fox News may fight to keep him off the air until 2025.

The New York Times reported on Friday that while Carlson had told several people he was interested in getting back on the air in the near future, Fox News would have to give its approval as his contract with the network does not officially expire until January 2025.

Former CNN chief media correspondent Brian Stelter observed on Twitter, Friday that since Carlson “is subject to a ‘pay or play’ clause,” Fox News “doesn’t have to ‘play’ him on air, they just have to pay him for the remainder of his contract.”
