Tucker Carlson is a US news media personality and journalist who for more than 30 years has been building his investigative and presentations skills! Since 2009 he began work on Fox News, and in 2016 was given his own show and became the nightly face on Tucker Carslon Tonight. Tucker presented long monologues and interviews covering issues that not just Americans appreciated, but post-2020, I’d come to appreciate and did many around the world.
Fired, Silenced or Gagged?
In March 2021 Dominion Voting Systems brought a $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News, which in April 2021 was settled for $787 million with an alleged condition of outing Tucker. Tucker wasn’t fired, as he was still “under contract“, but he was removed from air, and not even given the opportunity to say good-bye to his audience – they tried to silence him.
What was he sharing that they didn’t want the people of the world to hear?
Following this “outing” at Fox on Monday morning of April 24, 2023 via press release, Tucker relaunched his voice on Elon Musk’s Twitter on June 6, 2023 with a new show called Tucker on Twitter, whe he shares his “opinions” with the world about the news of today!
It didn’t take long, many of Tuckers Fox team have exited Fox and came across to Twitter to resume work with Tucker, so he has a skilled production and research team to help him.
Twitter followers as a guage of grassroots popularity
How many news personalities have 8.8 million followers on Twitter as of June 27, 2023? Up from 5.6 million in February of 2023. On the weekend of April 23, 2023 he had 6 million followers, and gained 200,000 more, at 6.2 million, by April 25, 2023, just one day afer Fox news terminated his voice. Buy June 5, 2023 just before his first Tucker on Twitter episode he had 7.7 million followers.
Curiously, before the pandemic on January 1, 2020 Tucker had 2.88 million followers. So at the begining of 2020 he went from 2.88 million followers to 8.8 million by mid 2023! That’s 8 million followers in 3.5 years.
Curiously President Joe Biden, who “won” by more votes in US history (81 million) has 37.3 million followers, when compared to President Donald Trump, who hasn’t been active on Twitter since being deplatformed in January 2021, who also won by the most votes of any sitting president, has 86.7 million followers.

…this is an open secret. The news ad spending from pharma is a public relations lobbying tactic, essentially to buy off the news. They’re not investigating pharma.

To even ask that question, the news referees that and calls you anti-science. When the two largest vaccine makers in the country are literally criminal enterprises, GlaxoSmithKline and Merck, in the past five years, have settled two of the largest criminal penalties in American corporate history for bribing doctors and creating misleading research, who are the two largest vaccine makers. So you literally have the media playing referee that you can’t even ask a question.
