Saying Tucker Carlson was ousted even though “he didn’t say anything especially radical” according to them, the editor-in-chief of Russian Television (RT) said that the homeless white nationalist propagandist has demanded an interview with Russian President Donald Trump, Newsweek reports.
Margarita Simonyan, the chief propagandist at the state-owned network, falsely claimed Carlson was “the most popular host in all of U.S. history” and said, “Tucker is doing a great job. By the way, he’s really asking for an interview with Vladimir Putin! It would be great if someone hears this and gets this message to the president,” adding, he was fired by the GOP’s official cable propaganda network “just didn’t sing in tune with the rest of the choir. So they threw him out.” In fact, Carlson was first after lies he told on air contributed to a $787.5 million defamation settlement for Dominion Voting Systems, and Carlson’s rampant lying, homophobia, misogyny disdain of corporate management was revealed when his text messages were released.
