Tucker Carlson, the former Fox News anchor, hasn’t slowed down since his departure from the network in April. He’s been hard at work behind the scenes, preparing for the next chapter of his career.
While continuing to share quaIity content and interviews on various pIatforms, Carlson has been quietly developing a new media venture, which recently launched via Tucker Carlson.com.
In a video shared on X (formerly Twitter), Carlson revealed, “We’ve been out of work for 7 or 8 months now; it’s hard to know. Time flies when you’re unemployed, but actually, we have been working in secret and producing an awful lot of material for months now—interviews, etc. And all of it has found its way to TuckerCarlson.com.” He emphasized that the subscription service is part of his ambitious plans for the future.
“We’re launching a brand new thing very soon, and we’d love for you to see it. So go to TuckerCarlson.com to see it first,” he urged his audience.
Despite Ieading in ratings, Carlson’s abrupt departure from his show shocked many fans. In a recent podcast conversation with comedian Roseanne Barr, he hinted at potential reasons for his dismissal from Fox News.
“I didn’t expect to get my show canceled Monday morning,” Carlson said. “But I wasn’t surprised at all. Television is like that. People get fired. There are all kinds of lines that no one will explain explicitly.”
He suggested that disagreements over topics like the war in Ukraine and the events of January 6th at the U.S. Capitol may have contributed to his departure.
“I could feel that they strongly disagreed in the war in Ukraine stuff,” Carlson noted. “But they didn’t like that at all. The January 6th stuff.”
Carlson had previously suggested on his show that federal agents might have been involved in the events of January 6th, leading to outrage from some quarters.
Looking ahead to the 2024 presidential campaign, Carlson made a bold prediction, stating his disbeIief that President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump will face each other again.
Referring to Biden as “senile,” Carlson explained his perspective, saying, “It’s just true.” He pointed out Trump’s legal challenges and Biden’s declining poll numbers as factors shaping his prediction.
Heavily-Tattooed Woman Says It’s “Not Fair” That She Can’t Get A Job
Following a woman’s accusation that TJ Maxx was discriminating against her due to her appearance, a subsequent instance involving a job rejection at the store has generated controversy. 23-year-old Ash Putnam, who goes by @ashxobrien on TikTok, talked about how she was turned down for a part-time job at the store because of her body piercings and tattoos.
Putnam claims that after applying for the job, she got an email a few weeks later rejecting her application. Disappointed by the information, she vented her annoyance on TikTok and sparked a discussion on discrimination in employment.
Putnam’s initial grievance was with the impersonality of getting an email rejection instead of a call. Even though this is standard procedure for big businesses, she thought it was disrespectful considering how hard she worked to apply for the position.
When Putnam went to her neighborhood TJ Maxx to personally find out why she was rejected, a staff member informed her that she didn’t have enough experience for the role. Despite the employee’s insistence to the contrary, she suspected that her tattoos had a big influence on the choice.
Putnam stressed that, despite her unhappiness, she wasn’t necessarily in need of the work and was just looking for extra money to help her pay off debt faster. She thought it was unjust, though, that her tattoos appeared to be a deciding factor in her employability.
Putnam has obvious tattoos of images associated with Satanism, including a Leviathan Cross and a goat that symbolizes the god Baphomet. Thousands of TikTok users commented on her post, implying that her tattoos probably affected the decision, even though it’s unclear whether hiring supervisors noticed them when she applied.
Visible tattoos, according to some reviewers, may be viewed as unprofessional, particularly in jobs where employees interact with customers like those at TJ Maxx. Others brought out the difficulty of finding a job for young folks without any prior work experience if employers value experience over potential.
The event brought up more general concerns about how society views physical alterations and employment procedures. Putnam questioned why having a tattoo should prevent someone from getting a job, given that many tattoo bearers are quite skilled workers.
Putnam’s tattoos may not have had a direct impact on her rejection, but the event brings attention to the ongoing discussion over appearance-based discrimination in the workplace. It’s critical to think about how hiring procedures may be more inclusive and equal for all candidates, regardless of appearance, as the conversation continues.
