"Starting soon, we'll be bringing a new version of the show we've been doing for the last 6 1/2 years to Twitter," and "some other things too which we'll tell you about.

[LifeSiteNews.com] "Tucker and Elon" began trending Tuesday afternoon on Twitter after ousted Fox News host Tucker Carlson posted a three-minute video to the social media platform announcing he'll begin uploading a new version of his show directly to Twitter. (Screengrab image)

In the short video, Carlson blasted mainstream media outlets for misleading audiences by withholding key elements "in every story that matters, every day of the week, every week of the year."
"What's it like to work in a system like that? After more than 30 years in the middle of it, we could tell you stories," he said, smiling.

"The best you can hope for in the news business at this point is the freedom to tell the fullest truth that you can," he said. "But there are always limits. And you know that if you bump up against those limits often enough, you will be fired for it. That's not a guess. It's guaranteed."
"The rule of what you can't say defines everything," Carlson continued, arguing the restriction is "filthy" and "corrupting."
Accordingly, the former top-rated primetime host told viewers he'll be relaunching his show, which previously occupied the coveted 8 p.m. ET time slot on Fox News, directly onto Twitter.
"Amazingly, as of tonight, there aren't many platforms left that allow free speech. The last big one remaining in the world, the only one, is Twitter, where we are now," he said... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
