À propos de cet audio

 Tucker Carlson has been making headlines once again due to a series of high-profile interviews and rapid expansion of his independent media ventures. Over the Independence Day holiday, Carlson announced that he had conducted an exclusive interview with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian. This move immediately sparked controversy across the political spectrum. Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw publicly criticized Carlson on social media, with Senator Ted Cruz and radio host Mark Levin joining in, expressing outrage at Carlson for interviewing the leader of a government they consider hostile to the United States. Responding to the criticism, Carlson released a video statement explaining his journalistic rationale: he pointed out that the U.S. and Iran were close to conflict only days before and argued that direct interviews with world leaders—even adversarial ones—are fundamental to journalism, echoing similar actions by past journalists with global figures.

Recently, Carlson has also expanded his Tucker Carlson Network, having bought out his previous investors to assume full ownership. According to reporting by Spreaker, this move allows him even greater creative and editorial control and signals the next phase in his attempt to reimagine conservative media outside the traditional cable television landscape. He continues hosting long-form interviews and panel discussions with a variety of guests, including recent segments with figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and Russell Brand, focusing on the evolving realignments of American political parties.

Simultaneously, Carlson’s “Tucker Carlson Live Tour” is moving forward, with planned live events in major cities and special guests such as Russell Brand. The tour is being promoted as both an opportunity for fans to interact and to hear his takes on current events, often featuring fellow controversial personalities. In terms of his content, Carlson has recently been spotlighted for promoting elements of the “Project 2025” conservative policy blueprint, though analysts at Media Matters have noted that he did not always directly refer to the initiative by name in his broadcasts.

Carlson’s influence and ability to spark national and international conversations remain significant, with his interviews—especially those with adversarial foreign leaders like Vladimir Putin and now President Pezeshkian—reigniting debates about the ethics and purpose of platforming. While supporters defend these interviews as essential journalism, critics argue they risk legitimizing hostile regimes or spreading propaganda. Despite these debates, there have been no major new legal or professional developments involving Carlson since his departure from Fox News.

His family also remains in the news, with his son Buckley Carlson recently securing a high-profile role in the Trump administration as deputy press secretary for Senator JD Vance. This appointment has fueled ongoing discussions about nepotism and the tight-knit nature of conservative media and politics. The intersection of Carlson’s growing independent platform, his headline-grabbing interviews, and the persistent scrutiny from both supporters and detractors ensures he remains a central figure in national debates about media, politics, and the boundaries of journalistic practice.
