Tucker Carlson has once again broke the internet with his newest Twitter video discussing his plans to make a “new version” of his popular Fox News show, 'Tucker Carlson Tonight', with the video generating 22.9 million views within the first 24 hours of being uploaded.
The tweet, which had the word “We’re back,” featured a video where Carlson ripped into the media's tendency to lie to you through the withholding of facts with the intent to manipulate you. Tucker provided examples of these manipulations put forth by the media.

Carlson then discussed the experience of working in the news industry and the limitations that are put on the ability to tell the full truth in the news. Carlson noted that “you know when you bump into those limits often enough, you will be fired for it,” speaking from his recent personal experience in his firing, as covered by the DC Enquirer.
Carlson then goes on to explain how there are no longer many news platforms that allow true freedom of speech, with most restricting the right. Tucker highlights how the last major platform that allows free speech is the very one he released his video on, Twitter.

After discussing how news outlets manipulate Twitter discussion, Carlson explained that he wanted his audience to get information straight from him. Tucker followed with an announcement that he will be bringing his show onto the platform, informing viewers he’ll “See you soon.”
Twitter users flooded the tweet, sharing their support of Carlson and his new and upcoming Twitter show. As of the writing of this article, the tweet has now reached an absurd 120.5 million views.
One naysayer in the comments on Tucker's tweet said that “You are right about everything you said but the problem is that you are just as guilty as those you accuse, of doing these facts.”
This reply prompted a response from the Twitter CEO himself, Elon Musk, where Musk highlighted the unique aspects of Twitter that will make the experience with the new Tucker Carlson show different than before.
In his tweet, Musk said “On this platform, unlike the one-way street of broadcast, people are able to interact, critique and refute whatever he or anyone may say. And, of course, anything misleading will get @CommunityNotes. I also want to be clear that we have not signed a deal of any kind whatsoever. Tucker is subject to the same rules & rewards of all content creators. Rewards means subscriptions and advertising revenue share (still working on software needed for the latter), which is a function of how many people subscribe and the advertising views associated with his content. I hope that many others, particularly from the left, also choose to be content creators on this platform.”
