“Tucker on Twitter” launched Tuesday with a report on the blown dam in Ukraine — a primary episode that, apart from extra pure lighting, totally different background and shorter size, seems to be and sounds quite a bit like “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”
About the launch of his new present, there was no fanfare. “Hey, it’s Tucker Carlson,” he stated, then launched straight into his report on the dam assault, suggesting Ukraine and/or the United States could have performed it — as if it have been a daily Tuesday evening on the Fox News Channel.
The inaugural episode was solely 10.5 minutes, far shy of the total 8 p.m. hour Carlson used to cowl as a top-rated host on Fox News. But again then, he was additionally working with a full complement of Fox sources like editors and producers — to not point out the total set that Fox got here to reclaim from his summer time dwelling in Maine.
Even in the shorter timeframe, Carlson was in a position to contact on a number of of his favourite subjects of yore, together with new testimony about reviews of UAP (the artists previously often known as UFOs) from inside the navy, the media, transgenderism, the BLM riots, Jeffrey Epstein, JFK and different best hits.
Carlson introduced May 9 that he can be taking his present to Twitter, although no timeline was given, and Elon Musk stated solely that Carlson can be handled like another content material creator.
It has by no means actually been made publicly clear whether or not Carlson had been launched from his TV contract, reported to be about $10 million yearly and operating by 2025, which might theoretically stop him from beginning a rival present.
Fox News didn’t instantly reply to a request for remark.
