Dr. Ben Carson, the pediatric neurosurgeon who gained national attention this year for his speech at the National Prayer Breakfast, has joined Fox News as a contributor, Politico reports.
His first appearance in his new capacity will be tonight at 9 p.m. on The Kelly File, the network’s new show hosted by Megyn Kelly.
This is not actually the beginning of Carson’s career as a paid commentator—he is also a columnist for the Washington Times, a position he began in July.
