Tucker Carlson Teams Up with Elon Musk to Create a Powerful Conservative Media Force.

The ongoing feud between Tucker Carlson and Fox News has intensified, as insiders close to Carlson have revealed to Axios that he is gearing up to pressure Fox News into allowing him to work for, or even create, a competing right-wing network.

This development comes on the heels of Fox News parting ways with Carlson 13 days prior, which subsequently led to a significant drop in viewership during his previous time slot. In an effort to keep him out of the limelight, Fox is said to be offering Carlson a staggering $20 million per year to remain unemployed.

Carlson’s legal representative, Bryan Freedman, shared with Axios that “the notion that anyone can muzzle Tucker and stop him from communicating with his audience is utterly absurd.” The ongoing strife between Carlson and Fox has the potential to dramatically alter the conservative news arena. Axios further reports:

Information obtained by Axios indicates that Carlson is actively laying the groundwork for his own media dynasty. However, he first needs Fox to release him from his contract, which is set to expire in January 2025, after the presidential election.
