TUCKER CARLSON Is Taking His Show To TWITTER · Radio Baloney - The Richie Baloney Show!

  So now we know, and a lot sooner than I expected to know.
• 0:04
  Now we know what Tucker Carlson, the biggest name in news, what he's
• 0:09
  doing after his departure from Fox. And of course we knew he wasn't going
• 0:13
  to disappear forever. The question was where will he re emerge and when?
• 0:18
  Well, now we know where. And as for the when, well,
• 0:23
  let's just watch the video. Oh and Elon Musk has something interesting to say,
• 0:27
  and we'll get to that after this video as well. Well, let's
• 0:29
  start in. Hey, it's Tucker Carlson. You often hear people say the
• 0:33
  news is full of lies, but most of the time that's not exactly right.
• 0:38
  Much of what you see on television or read the New York Times is
• 0:41
  in fact true in the literal sense. He could pass one of the media's
• 0:44
  own fact checks. Lawyers would be willing to sign off on it. In
• 0:48
  fact, they may have, but that doesn't make it true. It's not
• 0:51
  true. At the most basic level. The news you consume is a lie,
• 0:55
  a lie of the stealthiest and most insidious kind. Facts have been with
• 1:00
  held on purpose, along with proportion and perspective. You are being manipulated.
• 1:04
  How does that work. Let's see, if I tell you that a man
• 1:07
  has been unjustly arrested for armed robbery, that is not, strictly speaking a
• 1:11
  lie. He may have been framed. At this point there's been no trial,
• 1:15
  so no one can really say. But if I don't mention the fact
• 1:19
  that the same man has been arrested for the same crime six times before,
• 1:23
  am I really informing you? No? I'm not. I'm misleading you.
• 1:27
  And that's what the news media are doing in every story that matters, every
• 1:32
  day of the week, every week of the year. What's it like to
• 1:36
  work in a system like that? After more than thirty years in the middle
• 1:38
  of it, we could tell you stories. The best you can hope for
• 1:42
  in the news business at this point is the freedom to tell the fullest truth
• 1:46
  that you can. But there are always limits, and you know that if
• 1:49
  you bump up against those limits often enough, you will be fired for it.
• 1:53
  That's not a guess, it's guaranteed. Every person who works in English
• 1:59
  language media understands that the rule of what you can't say defines everything. It's
• 2:06
  filthy, really, and it's utterly corrupting. You can't have a free society
• 2:10
  if people aren't allowed to say what they think is true. Speech is the
• 2:15
  fundamental prrequisite for democracy. That's why it's enshrined in the first of our constitutional
• 2:20
  amendments. Amazingly, as of tonight, there aren't many platforms left that allow
• 2:24
  free speech. The last big one remaining in the world, The only one
• 2:30
  is Twitter, where we are now. Twitter has long served as the place
• 2:35
  where our national conversation incubates and develops. Twitter is not a partisan site.
• 2:39
  Everybody's allowed here, and we think that's a good thing. And yet,
• 2:44
  for the most part, the news that you see analyzed on Twitter comes from
• 2:47
  media organizations that are themselves thinly disguised propaganda outlets. You see it on cable
• 2:53
  news, you talk about it on Twitter. The result may feel like a
• 2:57
  debate, but actually the gatekeepers are still in charge. We think that's a
• 3:01
  bad system. We know exactly how it works, and we're sick of it.
• 3:07
  Starting soon, will be bringing a new version of the show we've been
• 3:09
  doing for the last six and a half years to Twitter. We bring some
• 3:14
  other things too, which we'll tell you about, but for now, we're
• 3:15
  just grateful to be here. Free speech is the main right that you have.
• 3:21
  Without it, you have no others see you sooner. So Tucker is
• 3:23
  taking a show it sounds like exclusively to Twitter. There's the where what about
• 3:30
  the when? He says soon? And that brings us to his contract status.
• 3:34
  And we're not going to get into the details of this right now.
• 3:37
  I'll make another video about this. But Axios here is reporting that Tucker Carlson
• 3:40
  has accused Fox of fraud and is claiming breach of contract. Let's see,
• 3:46
  he sent a letter to Fox. It's arguing that the non compete provision in
• 3:51
  his contract is no longer valid, freeing him to launch his own competing show
• 3:55
  or media enterprise. So in light of that, what does does it mean
• 4:00
  next week? Does it mean next month? Does it mean in six months?
• 4:03
  I don't know. But the sooner the better for me. So we'll
• 4:06
  get to Elon's comments on this in just a second, but first let's just
• 4:10
  go over what we just saw. So he talks about lies of omission,
• 4:13
  the things that you can't say, which is a way of lying to you
• 4:16
  without actually having to utter any lies. And we can take it from Tucker
• 4:20
  that if you bump up against that too many times, you get fired.
• 4:24
  And last time I checked Ducker Carlson wasn't working for Fox News anymore, and
• 4:28
  we all notice because he was saying things that the elites that the establishment of
• 4:32
  both parties didn't like. Now he's saying that the only big platform in the
• 4:38
  world that will allow free speech is Twitter, and that's where he's going.
• 4:42
  He says he's going to do a new version of the same show he's been
• 4:46
  doing for the last six years on Twitter. And as for the big,
• 4:49
  the really big platforms, yeah, it probably is the only place that he
• 4:53
  could do that show. Although I will say Rumbo is catching up and please
• 4:58
  join me at Rumble. By the way, I've got half the subscribers that
• 5:00
  I have on YouTube, but YouTube has just demonetized me. So I would
• 5:05
  love it if everybody just either watched my videos on Twitter, which I upload
• 5:09
  all of my videos to Twitter, or watch them on Rumble. And actually
• 5:13
  it is a good lesson in just how restrictive these big platforms are. I
• 5:17
  mean, even my small eleven thousand subscriber YouTube channel gets demonetized. That's how
• 5:24
  carefully they comb the wrong think out of their platform. It's actually quite dystopian,
• 5:29
  really, isn't it. But anyway, what did Elon Muske have to
• 5:31
  say about this, and it's actually a little bit surprising, he said,
• 5:34
  on this platform, unlike the one way street of broadcast, people are able
• 5:40
  to interact, critique, and refute whatever is said, and of course anything
• 5:45
  misleading will get community notes, which in my opinion are a great success.
• 5:49
  I see them just accurately fact checking, not with a left wing bias or
• 5:54
  right wing bias, a truth bias, and it's incredibly refreshing, and obviously
• 5:59
  it's having all of the left wing ideologues absolutely mad. He continues, I
• 6:04
  also want to be clear that we have not signed a deal of any kind
• 6:09
  whatsoever. Tucker is subject to the same rules and rewards of all content creators,
• 6:15
  so he's saying they have not actually signed any deal. He's just going
• 6:18
  over to Twitter and he's just gonna run his long form show on there.
• 6:23
  So Elon Musk is not paying him to be on the platform. However,
• 6:28
  it says that rewards means subscriptions and advertising revenue share coming soon, which is
• 6:33
  a function of how many people subscribe and the advertising views associated with the content.
• 6:39
  So where is Tucker's reward in this Well, obviously, the freedom to
• 6:43
  say what he wants is one, but also subscription. So if he charges,
• 6:46
  So if he charges ten dollars a month for a subscription for his shows
• 6:50
  and maybe articles, whatever else he wants to offer, and he gets one
• 6:54
  hundred thousand subscribers, there's a million dollars a month. Or maybe he gets
• 6:59
  a million subscribers and there's ten million dollars a month. I don't really know
• 7:02
  what the ceiling for Tucker is on Twitter. I've got a feeling though it's
• 7:05
  very high. Personally, I will pay for that because he is a unique
• 7:11
  voice in the media landscape. And on top of that advertising revenue share,
• 7:14
  which I have no idea how much that would be, but it certainly all
• 7:17
  helps, doesn't it. And he ends this with I hope that many others,
• 7:20
  particularly from the left, also choose to be content creators on this platform.
• 7:27
  Well, if creators can make money on Twitter, they will, of
• 7:30
  course they will. People need to make a living, and if you can
• 7:33
  make decent money on Twitter, all of the people that have been demodetized from
• 7:36
  the other platforms are going to flock to it. And I know Elon is
• 7:41
  not being perfect with the free speech say. I know Alex Jones doesn't have
• 7:45
  a Twitter accounts apparently, and apparently he's never going to but this is a
• 7:49
  hell of a lot better than it used to be. And at the end
• 7:51
  of the day, nothing's perfect, is it. Now. I saw this
• 7:55
  from at Jack Possobiak and I thought this was worth noting. Bring back Twitter
• 8:00
  streaming, launch Twitter Live apps for Roku, Fire, Apple Tv, etc.
• 8:05
  Become the greatest video platform in the universe. Now. I know there's
• 8:09
  no Twitter app for my Roku, but if there were, I would be
• 8:11
  using it to watch video from Twitter. And I just think it's just a
• 8:16
  no brainer. That would be a massive success. It's obviously the way to
• 8:20
  go for Elon and in fact, he says underneath coming, Yeah, it's
• 8:24
  a no brainer, isn't it. So I think Tucker Carlson and Twitter that's
• 8:28
  a matchmate in cyber heaven and this is going to help propel the digital landscape
• 8:33
  in a very interesting direction. Anyway, Please subscribe, like and share sharing
• 8:37
  It really helps me out. I thank you for that. I will see
• 8:39
  you next time.
