US journalist Tucker Carlson said Tesla CEO and billionaire owner of X (formerly Twitter) Elon Musk has pledged not to censor his interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin when it is posted on the platform, the American journalist claimed in a video he posted from Moscow on Tuesday.
According to RT, Carlson has been in Moscow for at least 4 days, sparking rumors that he planned to interview the Russian president. He confirmed his intention in a video posted on X.
He praised Musk for his pledge “not to block or suppress the interview once we post it on his platform X,” confirming that the video would be available without a paywall to anyone who chose to watch it on the journalist’s own website as well.
Carlson said “Western governments, by contrast, will certainly do their best to censor this video on other less principled platforms, because that’s what they do - they are afraid of information they can’t control."
The journalist is encouraging Americans to watch the interview in order to educate themselves on the “history-altering developments” unfolding in Russia and Ukraine.
