Three more prominent media figures will be launching shows on X.
The social media platform just announced new shows from former CNN anchor Don Lemon, sports radio host Jim Rome, and former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard.
"The Don Lemon Show" will run exclusively first on X in 30 minute episodes, three times a week, covering politics, culture, sports and entertainment. Lemon, who was fired from the network last April after 17 years, will share "his unique and honest voice," X said. A timeline for when the show will debut was not provided.
"I am back bigger, bolder, freer," Lemon said following the announcement. "I know now more than ever that we need a place for honest debate and discussion without the hall monitors. This is just the beginning so stay tuned."
Rome's show will stream exclusively on X five days a week, starting after the Super Bowl. It will be the first time Rome is bringing his "wildly popular content" to digital video, X said.
Following the announcement, Rome said he was "totally hyped" about the new partnership.
"X provides an incredible opportunity for me to reach fans on the biggest, most dynamic platform in the world," he said.
Gabbard -- an Army Reserve officer, veteran, four-term congresswoman and 2020 presidential candidate -- will be "sharing her unique point of view" through an exclusive series of documentary style videos and broader content, X said.
Gabbard said she plans to defend the right to free speech by using it.
"We will be bringing you stories and news about the truth of what's happening in our country and world but that those in power don't what you hear, and a series of short films that share the stories of those most impacted, but whose voices are silenced," she said.
The trio follows former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who moved his show to X shortly after he was fired from the network last year. He has since launched his own streaming service, the Tucker Carlson Network.
Earlier this week, X announced plans to "create more original content and bring in more talent" in the coming year.
"X is set to revolutionize 2024 with groundbreaking products and services that will reshape how we connect, communicate, and transact," the platform said. "By combining a public, live platform with the most engaged and influential users, we create a strong force for change."
