Report: FS1 Would Like More Of Craig Carton

Craig Carton’s future on WFAN afternoons is in question. And it will be Carton who decides if he stays or goes, according to The NY Post's Andrew Marchand. 

Carton started a new FS1 TV show in September, and the cable network is looking to own his exclusive rights, according to Post sources. This will leave the 54-year-old Carton with a decision between where seemingly his heart is: on radio with WFAN, the station that gave him a second chance after his imprisonment, or with a multimillion-dollar TV offer he can’t refuse. 

Though one factor is FS1 believing Carton, without FAN, would rate better on TV, there is also the feasibility of Carton being able to do both shows. 

“The Carton Show” on FS1 airs from 7-9:30 a.m., and “Carton & Roberts” on FAN is from 2-6:30 p.m. Both are daily. 

Carton’s radio contract runs out later in the year, but FAN would want to start the fall book in September, knowing he is returning. If not, the station would find a new partner to team with Evan Roberts.
