Tucker Carlson, fresh off a visit to Alabama, re

Less than a week after his sold-out public appearance in Alabama, fired Fox News host Tucker Carlson announced today on Twitter that he plans to re-launch a new version of his show on Twitter.

Carlson posted a video to his Twitter account today that said the show is coming soon.

“Speech is the fundamental pre-requisite for democracy,” Carlson said in the video. “That’s why it was enshrined in the first of our Constitutional amendments.”

Twitter is one of the last havens of free speech, he said.

“Amazingly, as of tonight, there are not that many platforms left that allow free speech,” Carlson said.

“The best you can hope for in the news business at this point is the freedom to tell the fullest truth that you can,” Carlson said.

“But there are always limits,” he said. “And you know that if you bump up against those limits often enough, you will be fired for it. That’s not a guess, that’s guaranteed.”

Carlson spoke May 4 at the Oxford Performing Arts Center at a fundraiser for Rainbow Omega, a faith-based non-profit that runs a residential center for disabled adults in Eastaboga. It was his first public speech since he was fired from Fox News. The event helped raise a large part of Rainbow Omega’s $8 million-plus budget for the year.

Carlson, after previous stints at CNN, PBS and MSNBC, worked for Fox News from 2009 until he was fired on April 24. The final episode of “Tucker Carlson Tonight” on Fox News aired April 21. For much of the time since it launched in 2016, it had been the highest rated program on cable news.
