Tucker Carlson breaks silence after Fox News departure with Twitter video: "See you soon"
CBSN
Tucker Carlson emerged on social media Wednesday night with a video on Twitter, finally breaking his silence days after his abrupt departure from Fox News was announced Monday.
In the video, the controversial former cable host started by addressing the audience with "things you notice when you take a little time off," like how "unbelievably stupid most of the debates you see on television are." Carlson made no mention of Fox News or the reasons behind his departure from the network, where he was its most-watched anchor.
In his signature delivery, and seated in what seemed like a professional studio, Carlson criticized both political parties and lamented that the "big topics get virtually no discussion."
