I’m assuming that’ll be part of his X app he’s developing.

I'm just summarizing what Tucker said - essentially, that without original content from/on Twitter, the conversation on Twitter is still dictated by what the NYT/FNC/CNN/etc. are serving up to the country for discussion.

He'll probably need a separate Twitter video app (maybe that already exists?)

I noticed this as I was trying to watch the Tucker vid on AppleTV to show my wife (and instead just had to mirror the app).

How much can he make on the Amazing African American’s social site?


The fact an actual African American owns the most influential site on the Internet tells you all about the potential for success America offers to former Africans, if they are willing to pursue it.

There's a lot of anxiety out there about.

I wonder if he’s gonna try to make Fox still pay by arguing that Twitter is not a traditional media company, so as long as he doesn’t get paid by Twitter to produce the content, Fox should still have to pay him per the contract. Make Fox pay, not Twitter.

We need the world's longest twitter string with everybody joining in to tell Lackland Murdoch (or whatever his fricking name is)m and Paul Ryan to get fricked.

But surely these ideas aren't merely as weighty as whether he thinks white men fight in a particular way?

He's fundamentally right though. The lies of the modern press are almost entirely lies of omission.

I wonder what his contract says about breach.


Sounds like he's already or close to filing and it includes a breach because of the leaked videos.

I guess posting on Twitter is not in violation of his contract with Fox News... brilliant! Tucker is so followed on Twitter and with Elon in charge, this is good as Gold as a "non-media" FREE platform to share!

$25 mil is hard to turn down
I'm sure a dude as sharp as Carlson has invested well. And besides he comes from big money so $25M to him isn't the same as to most of the world. Which makes him such a boss. He easily could be one of the elite instead of the one exposing them.

doesnt work that way, if he does any broadcasting he voids his contract money. it doesnt matter if its a podcast or twitter.

he shuts up and disappears for 2 years and agrees to be silenced, or he gets no money.

so he is setting up his income before he burns that bridge, as any smart person would do.
