Tucker Carlson has received $15 million in a round of fundraising to grow his new media company, according to a report from Axios.
Omeed Malik-founded 1789 Capital has invested in the media start-up from the ex-communicated Fox News host. Malik has previously backed Carlson, as he invested in The Daily Caller after its founding in 2010.
1789 Capital has made its intention to support anti-Environmental, Social, and Governance companies.
The new media company founded by Tucker Carlson is reported to be incorporated in Nevada as Last Country Inc., according to The Wall Street Journal. The company is expected to focus on video projects, including the Tucker on X series that the former Fox News host launched after his April ouster.
Currently, Carlson is working alongside his former executive producer Justin Wells, and has beefed up his home studio at his Maine estate.
