Controversial conservative commentator Tucker Carlson’s show will now regularly air on Russia’s state-run television channel, Rossiya 24, despite the anchor’s claim he is not involved.
Dean Thompson, the head of programming and production at the Tucker Carlson Network, asserted, “Any use of our content on that channel is without legal permission.”
Carlson’s show, known for conspiracy theories and pro-Russian rhetoric, has long been a source of concern, and his claims have ranged in idiocy from suggestions that Lyme disease is a bioweapon targeting the poor to downplaying Russia’s invasion of Ukraine as a mere “border dispute.”
Carlson’s affinity for Russian President Vladimir Putin is no secret, and earlier this year, he traveled to Moscow for a widely criticized interview with the Russian leader, which was seen as a softball session. Despite Putin’s subsequent mockery of Carlson, the conservative has defended the Russian dictator’s actions.
