Tucker Carlson fired. Was this truth about vaccines, corruption straw that broke the camel's back?

Opening monologue from Tucker Carlson Tonight, April 19, 2023.

TRANSCRIPT

Sometimes you wonder just how filthy and dishonest our news media are. You'll be in the shower and you think they're bad, but just how bad are they? Well here's one measure of their badness. You can try this at home, ask yourself. Is any news organization you know so corrupt that it's willing to hurt you on behalf of its biggest advertisers. Anyone who'd do that is obviously Pablo Escobar-level corrupt and should not be trusted. What would that look like, that level of corruption?

Well imagine that the Trump administration had made it mandatory for American citizens to buy My Pillow, that's one of Fox News' biggest advertisers. Imagine the administration declared that if you didn't rush out and buy at least one My Pillow and then at least another Booster Pillow, you were not allowed to eat out, you couldn't enter your own country, you couldn't have a paying job.

My Pillow, they told you with a straight face was the very linchpin of our public health system. Now imagine as they told you that, that Fox as a news organization endorsed it, amplified the government's message. Imagine if Fox news attacked anyone who refused to buy My Pillow as an ally of Russia, as an enemy of science, and then imagine that Fox kept up those libelous attacks even as evidence mounted that My Pillow caused heart attacks, fertility problems and death.

If Fox News did that, what would you think of Fox News? Would you trust us? Of course you wouldn't, you would know that we were liars.

Thanks heaven Fox News never did anything like that, but the others channels did. The other channels took hundreds of millions of dollars from Big Pharma companies and then they shilled for their sketchy products on the air and then as they did that, they maligned anyone who was skeptical of those products.

At the very least this was a moral crime, it was disgusting, but it was universal, it happened across the American news media, they all did it.

So in this point the question isn't, Who in public life is corrupt? Too many to count. The question is, Who is telling the truth? There are not many of those. One of them is Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Robert Kennedy knew early that the COVID vaccines were both ineffective and potentially dangerous and he said so in public to the extent he was allowed.

Science has since proven Robert Kennedy, Jr. right, unequivocally right. But Kennedy was not rewarded for this. He was vilified, he was censored. Because he dared to criticize their advertisers, the news media called Bobby Kennedy a Nazi and they attacked his family. But he kept doing it, he was not intimidated and we are glad he wasn't. This is one of those moments when it's nice to have a truth teller around, it's helpful, because suddenly the stakes are very high.

ROBERT F. KENNEDY, JR'S TWEET

"Fox fires @TuckerCarlson five days after he crosses the red line by acknowledging that the TV networks pushed a deadly and ineffective vaccine to please their Pharma advertisers. Carlson’s breathtakingly courageous April 19 monologue broke TV’s two biggest rules: Tucker told the truth about how greedy Pharma advertisers controlled TV news content and he lambasted obsequious newscasters for promoting jabs they knew to be lethal and worthless. For many years, Tucker has had the nation's biggest audience averaging 3.5 million — 10 times the size of CNN. Fox just demonstrated the terrifying power of Big Pharma."
