It looks like the Tucker Carlson-Fox News tussle is going to get nasty.

But while we wait on that legal drama to fully unfold, Carlson said on Tuesday that he's taking his talents to Twitter, which we all know Elon Musk is thrilled about (since Donald Trump won't come back).

Oddsmakers at SportsBetting.ag have set odds on Carlson's Twitter content, as well as the future of Fox News.

Fox News Media and Carlson agreed to part ways last month, shortly after parent company Fox Corp (FOXA.O) settled for $787.5 million a defamation lawsuit in which the top-rated host played a starring role.

His show was the highest rated of any cable news hour.  Ratings have slumped since his departure. 

“Starting soon, we'll be bringing a new version of the show we've been doing for the last six and a half years to Twitter,” Carlson said in a video posted on the social media platform. “We bring some other things too, which we'll tell you about. But for now, we're just grateful to be here.”

Musk is actively seeking out content creators for Twitter.
