Several months since his dismissal from Fox News, Tucker Carlson is launching his own $72-a-year subscription streaming service.

“We’ve been out of work for seven or eight months now,” the host says in a video announcing the Tucker Carlson Network. “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, etcetera – and all of it has now found its way to tuckercarlson.com. We’re launching a brand-new thing very soon.”
