Vivek Ramaswamy, a big time pharmaceutical executive and former GOP presidential candidate revealed some big news concerning the future of his career. He’s hopping into business with Fox News. He’s set to debut a program called “Truths With Vivek Ramaswamy,” as a part of Fox Nation streaming service on Sunday, Sept. 22. The first episode will also air on Fox News in the 10 p.m. slot. Given how effective Ramaswamy was as a communicator while running his presidential campaign, there’s no doubt in my mind his program will be a hit. He often says what others are simply too scared to say and that’s a benefit for us all in the current political climate.
Check out further details about the show from The Hollywood Reporter:
Truths will see Ramaswamy present “a positive alternative to the left’s vision for the future by presenting hard ‘truths’ that the American conservative movement must embrace,” per Fox. The five episode series will include a roundtable-style format, with Ramaswamy joined during the series by a panel that includes his wife Apoorva Ramaswamy, journalist Matt Taibbi, American theoretical physicist Steven Koonin, Priovant Therapeutics CEO Ben Zimmer and Rabbi Shmully Hecht. All five episodes of Truths will be available on Sept. 22. In addition, Fox Nation will run a town hall-style special called Just Ask on Sept. 20, with Fox & Friends Weekend host Pete Hegseth moderating.
“Today conservatives know what we’re against. But what exactly do we stand for? To answer that question, we need to talk to every American, not just those who agree with us,” Ramaswamy revealed in a statement announcing his new series. “That’s the subject of my new book Truths: The Future of America-First, and I enjoyed partnering with Fox Nation to host provocative dinner table conversations that we rarely have in our country anymore.”
“We are excited to launch this new series showcasing Mr. Ramaswamy’s thoughtful and unique perspective on the state of American politics after his meteoric rise over the last year,” Fox Nation president Lauren Petterson said.
I think this is a relationship that will also benefit Fox News, seeing as how Ramaswamy was great at connecting with young people, which could add extra appeal to the network for that coveted 18-36 year old demographic. If there’s one thing that conservatives really need to do better, it’s messaging designed to expose younger voters to the message of liberty and why they need to embrace it.
