Elon Musk Releases Statement About Tucker Carlson’s New Show On Twitter: ‘We Have Not Signed A Deal’

Twitter CEO Elon Musk said Tuesday afternoon that the platform has not signed any kind of a deal with Tucker Carlson after the cable news host announced he was creating a new version of his show on the platform.

“On this platform, unlike the one-way street of broadcast, people are able to interact, critique and refute whatever is said,” Musk said. “And, of course, anything misleading will get @CommunityNotes.”

“I also want to be clear that we have not signed a deal of any kind whatsoever,” Musk added. “Tucker is subject to the same rules & rewards of all content creators. Rewards means subscriptions and advertising revenue share (coming soon), which is a function of how many people subscribe and the advertising views associated with the content.”

Musk encouraged people, including those on the political Left, to be content creators on the platform.

But for now, we’re just grateful to be here. Free speech is the main right that you have, without it, you have no others. See you soon.”
