WASHINGTON Jun 9 TV presenter Tucker Carlson tweeted the second the release of his political show, despite claims from his formal employer, Fox News.
In April, an American television channel for unclear reasons removed the country's top-rated journalist from the air, but continues to keep him on the staff until 2025.
On the second episode of Tucker on Twitter, Carlson spoke of the erosion of paedophilia taboos, accused a social networking site with its algorithms of distributing ambiguous content, mentioned ex-President Barack Obama's «weird and creepy» private life , ridiculed the incumbent head of state, Joe Biden, who called the ideology of white supremacy the «most dangerous threat» to the United States — more than a nuclear war with Russia or Mexican drug cartels.
The first episode of the show gathered 55 million views in a day. After that, according to the Internet portal Axios, Fox News notified Carlson of a violation of the terms of the contract that continues to operate. The TV journalist's lawyers responded by referring to the first amendment of the constitution, which guarantees freedom of speech.
