Tucker Carlson, prior to leaving Fox News, appeared to have critical things to say about Fox News’ Fox Nation streaming service, according to The Epoch Times citing a leaked video.
“Nobody watches Fox Nation because the site sucks,” Carlson said in the video, later adding, “The site doesn’t work.”
The video, obtained by Media Matters, a politically left-leaning media watchdog group, showed Carlson in a phone call with an unknown male while on the set of “Tucker Carlson Today.”
The two were discussing an arrangement to interview controversial right-wing personality Andrew Tate. The interview was ultimately conducted in August 2022 on “Tucker Carlson Today.”
“I don’t want to be a slave to Fox Nation, which I don’t think that people watch anyway,” Carlson told the unknown person on the call.
Fox Nation, according to its own website, is an “exclusive streaming service brought to you by Fox News, with entertaining and informative shows that highlight the unique stories, history, and people of America.”
“Nobody watches Fox Nation because the site sucks,” Carlson said of Fox Nation in the leaked video. “I’m just frustrated with it. It’s hard to use that site. I don’t know why they’re not fixing it. It’s driving me insane."
The video also showed Carlson saying: “We’re like working like animals to produce all this content, and the people in charge of it, whoever that guy is, whatever his name is, like, they’re ignoring the fact that the site doesn’t work.
“And I think it’s like a betrayal of our efforts. That’s how I feel. So I, of course, I resent it.”
