Fox News Accuses Tucker Carlson of Breaching His Contract with Smash Hit Twitter Video

Fox News has accused its former star anchor Tucker Carlson of breaching his contract with the network after he re-launched his show on Twitter this week.

Episode One of Carlsonโ€™s new show has been an unprecedented smash hit, scoring over 80 million views in under 24 hours for his 10-minute Twitter video.

The letter says: โ€œThis evening we were made aware of Mr. Tucker Carlsonโ€™s appearance on Twitter in a video that lasted over 10 minutes.

โ€œIn connection with such breach and pursuant to the Agreement, Fox expressly reserves all rights and remedies which are available to it at law or equity.โ€

Carlsonโ€™s lawyers told Axios, the media outlet that broke the story:

โ€œFox defends its very existence on freedom of speech grounds.

โ€œNow they want to take Tucker Carlsonโ€™s right to speak freely away from him because he took to social media to share his thoughts on current events.โ€

Glenn Greenwald said:

โ€œThis is pathetic of Fox.

โ€œThey fired Carlson, and now their position is: heโ€™s not allowed to speak.

โ€œHe didnโ€™t go to a competing network.

โ€œHe has no contract with Twitter.

โ€œHeโ€™s just speaking on social media.

โ€œAnd to Fox, thatโ€™s cause to threaten to sue him.

โ€œThey want him quiet.โ€
