Tucker highlights Big Pharma, constituting 75% of TV ads in 2020, then delves into COVID, lockdowns, mRNA shots, January 6th, and the War in Ukraine.

"It not only exists, it defines news coverage. Especially on pharma because pharma is the biggest advertiser on television. If Pfizer is sponsoring your show, you are not going to question the vax... And that's why they are the biggest advertiser. So they can shape news coverage."

Tucker explains that he was not surprised by his firing because it is implicitly understood within the industry that sharing opinions that conflict with corporate advertisers eventually gets you fired.

"I had a lot of opinions that were unpopular with people who might have influenced my show getting canceled... But I was not shocked at all. You can't give the finger to everybody and persist in a corporate job."

This aligns with Glenn Greenwald's (

, illustrating how modern journalism, once a check on established power, is now controlled by corporate advertisers.

The ongoing corporate boycott of
@X
, ostensibly based on a false antisemitism claim, reflects this broader pattern.

Empirical data reveals platforms like TikTok and Instagram promote significantly more antisemitism than
@X
, yet corporate advertisers are only targeting this platform.

This contradiction underscores the corporate
@X
boycott is less about combating antisemitism and more about stifling freedom of speech online.

When
@elonmusk
defiantly tells this union of major corporate advertisers and establishment power to "go f**k yourself" for attempting to bankrupt his company, he's pointing at the authoritarian illiberal forces attempting to control online speech through advertising dollars.

Elon Musk, Glenn Greenwald, and Tucker Carlson rightly point the finger at this dangerous alliance of corporate and government power, manipulating news and shaping social media platforms through advertising dollars.

These authoritarian illiberal forces starkly oppose the core principles of freedom, liberty, and enlightenment that have fostered the modern prosperity of so many people in the Western world.
