It didn't take long for ousted Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson to find a new home for his broadcasts, and that home is Twitter.

Carlson made the announcement in a three-minute video on Twitter Tuesday afternoon.

"Speech is the fundamental pre-requisite for democracy. That's why it was enshrined in the first of our Constitutional amendments," Carlson said.

"Amazingly, as of tonight, there are not that many platforms left that allow free speech. The last big one remaining in the world, the only one, is Twitter, where we are now."

He did not give a specific start date for his new program, but indicated, "Starting soon, we’ll be bringing a new version of the show we’ve been doing for the last six and a half years to Twitter. We’ll be bringing some other things too, which we’ll tell you about. But for now, we’re just grateful to be here."

Carlson said "at the most basic level the news you consume is a lie, a lie of the stealthiest and most insidious kind. Facts have been withheld on purpose, along with proportion and perspective. You are being manipulated."

"What's it like to work in a system like that? After more than 30 years in the middle of it, we could tell you stories. The best you can hope for in the news business at this point is the freedom to tell the fullest truth that you can, but there are always limits.

And you know that if you bump up against those limits of enough, you will be fired for it. It’s not a guess, it’s guaranteed. Every person who works in English language media understands that."

CNBC reported: "A Fox representative didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. A Twitter spokesperson responded with a poop emoji when asked for comment on Tuesday."



Carlson's final broadcast of "Tucker Carlson Tonight" on the Fox News Channel was Friday, April 21. Despite being the runaway leader in ratings, Fox announced the following Monday on April 24 he would no longer appear on the air.

"FOX News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways. We thank him for his service to the network as a host and prior to that as a contributor."

Forbes reported Carlson earned $15 million to $20 million each year with Fox News, making him one of the highest-paid TV hosts in the country, according to a person familiar with the 53-year-old's contract.

Axios reported that Carlson "accused the network Tuesday of fraud and breach of contract – and made a host of document demands that could precede legal action."

"The aggressive letter from his lawyers to Fox positions Carlson to argue that the noncompete provision in his contract is no longer valid – freeing him to launch his own competing show or media enterprise. …

"The intrigue: The Twitter move would seem to technically violate Carlson's contract with Fox, but his lawyers' letter effectively holds that Fox breached the contract first."

Almost bankrupted Faux News.

Almost bankrupted Faux News.

He hasn't even started.

After listening to that guy, I understood what fake news meant.

Man got over 70M views in his first video, he did last week.
Tucker has more views than BBC, CNN and AJ

Well, Russia and Iran have won Syria war for Assad.
USA regime failed in Syria due to Russia.

What Tucker Carlson is saying is what I've known for long. There is no single truth in Western media. Be it CNN, BBC, sky News, wall Street Journal, new York Times, just name it.

They are all political tools to brainwash you, lie to you, and spin evil to be seen as good. The media will make you believe that the US destroyed Iraq thousands of miles a way with multiple ocean seperating them from Iraq because Iraq is a threat to their security.

Just think about it for a second. And lots of dummy Americans believes it. Thank God those days of lies are quickly coming to an end. You'll get more truth from social media influencers and youtubers than CNN. That's how bad it has become.

Fox News has sent a "cease-and-desist" letter to Tucker Carlson over a competing Twitter series from the channel's former star host that drew a combined 169 million views for its first two episodes. https://www.newsmax.com/finance/streettalk/tucker-carlson-fox-twitter/2023/06/12/id/1123299/
