Russian TV teases launch of Tucker Carlson show
Russian TV teases launch of Tucker Carlson showRussian TV news channel Rossiya 24 has aired a trailer for a weekend show featuring former Fox News journalist Tucker Carlson.
The state-run broadcaster did not make clear whether it will feature original content or be a translation of his regular English-language videos on X.
Rossiya 24 has not yet said when the show will air.
The advert, first shared earlier this month, aired again on 22 September with the words "on the weekend" but no further details.
In it Carlson is seen repeatedly saying the word "Russia" - in what appeared to be clips spliced together from earlier broadcasts - and concludes with footage of him saying the word "24".

Wouldn't "Tucker Carlson teases returns to Russian TV" be more apropos? I could have sworn the last station that he was on was also a Russian TV station with all the Putin worshipping.
Well either way at least we still have someone who is willing to stand up to the elites now that Rupert is gone.
