Veteran sportscaster Craig Carton is expanding his media presence with a new role at Fox’s Outkick. The broadcaster, widely recognized for his work at New York’s WFAN radio station, will helm a fresh program set to debut September 8. The show will air three times weekly on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, reaching audiences across the nation.
“The Craig Carton Show” will blend commentary on sports and cultural topics with interviews featuring prominent guests. Carton expressed enthusiasm about joining the outlet, praising Outkick’s approach to candid discussion. The move represents an expansion rather than a departure, as Carton will maintain his existing hosting responsibilities at WFAN, where he currently leads the afternoon drive-time program.
Outkick, founded in 2011 and acquired by Fox Corp. a decade later, focuses on sports news and opinion-driven content. The digital platform emphasizes direct commentary and often challenges mainstream media narratives. Fox has increasingly invested in partnerships with content creators and influencers, integrating them throughout its corporate divisions to strengthen its digital offerings.
Carton’s addition to the Outkick roster continues Fox’s strategy of expanding its sports-focused digital content. Previously, Carton hosted a daily podcast under the same name for Fox Sports and its affiliate Red Seat Ventures before transitioning to this new broadcast opportunity.
