Tucker Carlson was fired less than a week after Fox News announced that it had reached a $787.5 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems.
“On this platform, unlike the one-way street of broadcast, people are able to interact, critique and refute whatever is said,” Musk tweeted.
For the ones worried that Carlson would use his show to spread lies and conspiracy theories unchallenged, Musk said that “Community Notes” will keep him honest if he says “anything misleading.” Musk continued, “I also want to be clear that we have not signed a deal of any kind whatsoever.
