Tucker Carlson announces he is 'relaunching his show' on Musk-owned TWITTER - with the help of former Fox News show staff - and will FORGO his $25m non-compete clause

Tucker Carlson has announced he is relaunching his show on Twitter - just two weeks after being fired by Fox News.

The ousted television host made the announcement in a three-minute video posted to his Twitter page on Tuesday in which he slammed the mainstream media and said anyone who tries to tell the truth 'will be fired.'

'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,' Carlson told his fans.

I assume he will be hosting for free? No paycheck?

$25M is a drop in the bucket compared to what he CAN earn as an independent. Good call.

I’m kinda glad he lives on Boca Grande. An island, easy to secure. You just know the crazies will be out for him.

“On Tuesday, it was revealed that Fox News’ settlement with Dominion Voting Systems over claims made in 2020 about the company’s voting machines’ role in the presidential election was the reason why former Fox News host Tucker Carlson was taken off the air.

Two people briefed on the conversation told Axios that Carlson had been told by a Fox board member that he was taken off the air abruptly last month as part of the settlement with Dominion Voting Systems. “

The only drawback of this move is he won’t be competing head-to-head with Fox primetime — to escalate their demise…
Today Megyn Kelly reviewed the ratings for Friday's primetime. MSNBC beat them across the board. She says its the lowest she's ever seen them.

Wow. So instead of monetary damages, Dominion served their political masters by demanding that a voice of truth was silenced. Does anyone have any doubt that this lawsuit was to silence any truth about election fraud and swing 2024 to the Democrats. Election 2024—Bought and Paid For.

Musk knows real talent when he sees it, be it rocket engineers, Electric Car
Engineers or Broadcast Talent that speaks Truth.
Musk’s talent is assembling great talent.
People who love their work and are very good at it.
Go Tucker Go.

“”” Twitter, which already has an app on Apple TV, Fire TV, and Xbox One, has now also released an app for Android TV.

By venturing into video content, Twitter hopes to appeal to the masses even more. Having video apps for different platforms is, therefore, a must for the company. “””

Yep, I think it’s now missing the point to compare Tucker’s new venue to whatever remains of Fox prime time. Those are now apples and oranges. Tucker will be on an entirely different level, while Fox competes with the two bottom-dwelling networks for whatever scraps they can attract with Hannity’s self-aggrandizement. Good luck to them trying to make that work.

I'm making a calculated guess that this could very well be a definite "KNOCK OUT" blow to the FOX Organization... and the START of SOMETHING NEW!

Here's to the SUCCESS of BOTH Tucker Carlson and Elon Musk!

KNOCK 'EM DEAD BOYS!

FNC will go for something called ESG (elite sjw) ratings. . . . But the folks at the View, at Rachel Maddow & MSNBC, in the corporate offices of FNC must be in a fit of despair. . . And think of all the former sjw’s at Twitter who had the company sold out from under them.
