Tucker Carlson’s new media empire, the Tucker Carlson Network (TCN), announced itself to the mainstream media in a clever way on Thursday.
Carlson officially launched the network on Monday, eight months after he was suddenly fired from his #1 show by Fox News.
The conservative pundit vowed to “burn down” the media in response.
To announce their arrival, TCN took a billboard on wheels and parked it outside the headquarters of CNN, The New York Times, NBC News, and The Washington Post.
“Corporate Media Is Dead,” the billboard reads, featuring a picture of Carlson smiling.
“Who did this?? (We did it),” read the one social media post.
Who did this ?? 😭😭😭

“Some call it advertising,” another post, showing a second billboard outside NBC News, read. “We call it *art*”
