Tucker Carlson Says He’s Interviewing Vladimir Putin Because ‘Corrupt’ Media Outlets That ‘Lie’ Have Not


Tucker Carlson claims he will be interviewing Russian President Vladimir Putin because English-speaking news outlets are "corrupt" and "lie."

Tucker Carlson is in Moscow where he claims he will be interviewing Russian President Vladimir Putin — on his own dime — because English-speaking news outlets are “corrupt” and “lie” to their viewers and listeners. Carlson said he is interviewing Putin, who launched Russia’s invasion of Ukraine two years ago, to inform people in the U.S. and elsewhere who have been misinformed by the traditional media in their countries. The interview with Putin will be posted on Carlson’s own website — for free — and eventually on Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter), he said.
