Fox News Issues Cease-and-Desist Letter to Tucker Carlson Over Twitter Show

Fox News has reportedly sent a cease-and-desist letter to former host Tucker Carlson, demanding he stop posting episodes of his new Twitter show following his ouster from the network. Fox claims to retain the rights to his exclusive content through 2024. Carlson launched his online series, “Tucker on Twitter,” earlier this month. Fox canceled the highly rated “Tucker Carlson Tonight” and parted ways with Carlson in April, days after the network reached a $788 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems.

Controversial Tucker Carlson Continues to Stir Up Controversy

The Ukrainian government has criticized Tucker Carlson, a former Fox News host, for launching a pro-Kremlin rant on his first Twitter show. Carlson claimed that Ukraine destroyed the Nova Kakhovka dam, which collapsed and caused massive flooding in the country. Both Ukraine and Russia have blamed each other for the destruction of the dam, which lies within Russian-controlled territory in Ukraine and supplies water to a large area of the country. Western intelligence agencies have said they are not sure who was responsible. Ukraine’s Centre for Strategic Communication and Information Security slammed Carlson on Twitter on Thursday, using a clown emoji.

"Tucker Carlson's Contract Breach Leads to Twitter Show Debut"

Fox News has notified Tucker Carlson's legal team that he breached his contract with the network by launching his own Twitter show on Tuesday, according to a letter obtained by Axios. Carlson's lawyer argued that any legal action by Fox would violate his First Amendment rights to free speech guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution. Fox News had taken Carlson off the air following a damaging defamation lawsuit over false claims of election fraud.
