| Tucker Carlson has released a new video |
Former Fox News star Tucker Carlson surfaced publicly on Wednesday for the first time since abruptly leaving the network this week, releasing a videotaped statement in which he criticized the state of public discourse on U.S. television.
Carlson in the videotaped statement did not directly address his departure from Fox, where he hosted the highest-rated cable news program in the key age demographic on the most-watched U.S. cable news network.
Instead, he took aim at American media and the U.S. political system.
"Both political parties and their donors have reached consensus on what benefits them and they actively collude to shut down any conversation about it," Carlson said.
"Suddenly the United States looks very much like a one-party state. That's a depressing realization, but its not permanent," he said.
"Where can you still find Americans saying true things?," Carlson asked. "There aren’t many places left, but there are some."
Despite signing off the roughly two-minute clip with the words "see you soon," Carlson did not give any hints of his next move.
