The time before Fox News decided to suddenly shut down his show “Tucker Carlson Tonight” was marked by a heated debate about the program.
Among other things, Carlson had obtained video footage from the so-called storming of the Capitol which confirmed earlier information that the police helped the protesters “storm” the building.
In several pictures, you could see the so-called Q-shaman Jake Angeli, who was sentenced to prison for his “storming” of the building, in fact was helped to walk around inside by the police, who, among other things, held doors open at him and surrounded him in various parts of the Capitol.
After the images were released, Democrats and several Republicans in Congress announced that they resented the disclosure, which was accused of tarnishing the image of the event that democratically elected officials from both parties stood behind it.
Chuck Schumer, the leader of the Democrats in the United States Senate, after the revelation called on Fox News owner Rupert Murdoch to fire Tucker Carlson.
“Democrat ” requires this, according to the politician.
Where Tucker Carlson will now go is not known. In a video on Telegram, he at least appears to confirm that he was kicked out of the TV channel due to the political content of his shows.
He also hints that he is about to come back to the public via another platform going forward.
At the time of its shutdown, Tucker Carlson Tonight was America's most-watched prime-time news show.
