Tucker Humiliates Corporate Media Outlets on Their Own Turf: ‘They’re Doomed’
When Tucker Carlson was unceremoniously fired from Fox News in April, the reasons behind his dismissal remained a mystery. However, Brian Stelter, who had also experienced a sudden termination from his job covering the news media for CNN, took the opportunity to gloat in a spiteful Vanity Fair article, claiming that Carlson’s firing was “inevitable.”
But Carlson had the last laugh this week when he orchestrated a publicity stunt that symbolized his belief in the impending demise of corporate media. In a bold move, he parked mobile billboards outside the headquarters of NBC, CNN, The Washington Post, and The New York Times, boldly declaring “corporate media is dead” in Washington, D.C. and New York City.

In an interview with the Daily Mail, Carlson expressed his belief that corporate media is “doomed.” He stated, “And on some level, they know they’re doomed, which is why they’re hysterical. The era of dominance by a few big media companies, the era of total control over all information by, you know, nine people, that’s done.” He specifically criticized The New York Times, stating that it has “no moral authority remaining,” and predicted that “NBC News will be dead in 10 years.”
Despite his unpleasant departure from Fox, Carlson expressed gratitude towards the network, acknowledging the platform they provided him for 14 years. He emphasized that Fox News never dictated his thoughts or opinions and praised the Murdochs for their kindness.
Now, with the launch of the Tucker Carlson Network, Carlson is building his own media empire. The subscription video platform aims to provide truthful and fearless reporting on important matters. In addition to hosting multiple new programs, Carlson’s network will offer free ad-supported content and a podcast called “The Tucker Carlson Podcast.”
Carlson’s departure from Fox marked a new era in journalism, as he demonstrated the public’s hunger for media that goes beyond corporate narratives and

The billboards caused quite a stir, with many people praising Carlson for his audacity and willingness to challenge the mainstream media. But his bold move also sparked outrage among his critics, who accused him of spreading misinformation and further eroding trust in the media.
For years, Carlson has been a vocal critic of mainstream media outlets, accusing them of bias, sensationalism, and outright lies. He has called out journalists for their lack of integrity and objectivity, and has often been a thorn in the side of the corporate media establishment.
The billboards, however, take Carlson’s critique to a whole new level. By placing his message directly outside the headquarters of some of the most influential media organizations in the country, he is not only challenging their credibility but also questioning their very existence.
The message on the billboards, ”corporate media is dead,” is a bold statement that asserts the impending demise of traditional media outlets. In an era of increasing skepticism and mistrust in the media, Carlson is tapping into a sentiment shared by many Americans.
The rise of alternative media platforms, such as social media and independent news outlets, has significantly disrupted the traditional media landscape. More and more people are turning to these sources for news and information, leaving corporate media outlets scrambling to maintain their relevance and authority.
Carlson’s billboards seem to signal a shift in power, with alternative voices gaining ground and the corporate media losing its grip on the national narrative. This shift is not only driven by technological advancements but also by growing disillusionment with the mainstream media’s agenda and the perception that they are more interested in promoting their own political biases than reporting the truth.
The reaction from corporate media outlets to the billboards has been predictable. Many journalists and commentators were quick to dismiss Carlson’s stunt as a desperate attempt to salvage his reputation and pander to his base. They accused him of being a conspiracy theorist and a threat to democracy.
But while his critics may scoff, Carlson has struck a nerve with a large portion of the American public who feel that the mainstream media has failed them. The declining trust in traditional media outlets is not a new phenomenon, but Carlson’s billboards serve as a stark reminder that this distrust is not going away.
The future of media is uncertain, and Carlson’s billboards may very well be a sign of things to come. As more and more people seek alternative sources of information and the traditional media model continues to struggle, corporate media outlets will be forced to adapt or face the consequences.
Whether or not Carlson’s prediction of their demise comes true remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: the battle for the future of media is far from over, and Tucker Carlson is not going down without a fight.
