Fired Fox News frontman Tucker Carlson is speaking out for the first time in a Twitter video after his broadcaster fired him. His reaction has been viewed millions of times.

No time? blue News summarizes for you

  • Tucker Carlson first spoke out after Fox News fired him.
  • The moderator did not go directly into his dismissal, but criticized that you can no longer tell the truth in America.
  • His tweet was viewed more than 73 million times, and the video still saw more than 21 million.

When Tucker Carlson speaks for the first time after his dismissal at Fox News, he is of course sure to be ridiculed by the liberal late night shows. He reports from his «business sauna», blasphemes about Desi Lydicthe guest host of the Daily Show.

“Wow, great for Tucker,” continues the 41-year-old, “even though he’s isolated in a remote cabin somewhere, he’s still getting his message out – just like the Unabomber.” That’s what the US media call Ted Kaczynski, who between 1978 and 1995 terrified the United States with letter bombs from a shack in Montana.

But in addition to malice, the 53-year-old can also look forward to a lot of attention. After 24 hours, his tweet has been viewed 73.3 million times. At least 21.7 people watched his two-minute video – maybe there is something to the “business sauna” after all.

Findings from a “little break”

But: “The other thing you notice when you take a little break is how incredibly stupid most of the debates you see on TV are.” In five years nobody will remember it. “Believe me as someone who worked on it.”

And what does he say now, the odds king? He noticed how many “really friendly people” there are since he escaped the “noise” for “a few days”, said Carlson three days after his resignation. “Decent people who care about what’s true.”

One is silent about the truly important issues: “War, civil rights, new scientific discoveries, demographic change, corporate power, natural resources.” Discussing these theses “is not allowed in the American media,” says Carlon.

Carlson rants about “the people on the trigger”

This is due to “both parties and their donors” who have conspired to stifle any debate about it. It is “a depressing realization” that the USA has become a one-party state, the Californian shoots at the Republicans, to whom he was recently so attached.

“People on the trigger” are “hysterical, aggressive” and “afraid,” believes Carlson, explaining “the iron law of the universe”: “When honest people say what’s true, they become powerful.” But today in America one can hardly speak the truth. “As long as you hear the words, there is hope,” he concludes.

In fact, Carlson says nothing directly about his departure from Fox News. “Most of what he says is extremely insignificant,” says the “Late Night” host Seth Meyers. He probably just wanted to show that he was still alive. If the range stays that massive, he’ll be fine with it.
