TV host Tucker Carlson has embarked on a new project and announced Saturday that he is starting his own streaming platform. The Tucker Carlson Network (TCN) is "days" away from its official launch and will cost $9 a month, or $72 a year.
Carlson himself reported the arrival of TCN in a video uploaded to X, the platform he is currently collaborating with. He provided the link to the platform: "TuckerCarlson.com":
Hey, it’s Tucker Carlson! We’ve been out of work for seven or eight months now. Hard to know, time flies when you’re unemployed. But actually, we’ve been working in secret and producing an awful lot of material for months now — interviews, et cetera — and all of it has now found its way to tuckercarlson.com. We’re launching a brand-new thing very soon.

Tucker Carlson Network's offer
According to Carlson, his new streaming service will have, for the moment, five programs: "The Tucker Carlson Interview," "The Tucker Carlson Encounter," "Tucker Carlson Uncensored," "Ask Tucker" and "TC Shorts." Some of the interview subjects, according to The Hollywood Reporter, will include former President Donald Trump, Kid Rock, UFC CEO Dana White and the new president of Argentina, Javier Milei.
Along with this, reports the platform's website, those who subscribe now to the service will get a discount and, instead of the $9 a month, will only have to pay $6. These are not the only advantages offered by TCN to those it has dubbed its "founding members." They will also have access to "hours of exclusive members-only content hosted by the journalist," a "bonus free month added to your subscription" and the ability to purchase "limited-edition merchandise."
The mission of this platform is also stated on the website, and is not much different from the reason why Carlson decided in April to join X and continue doing interviews: "It’s time to build an alternative to legacy media, and you can help us do it. It’s time they stopped hiding the truth from you. We’ll expose them together," he says.
