Tucker Carlson has booked his next high-profile interview with an embattled public figure.
Twitter CEO Elon Musk will join the Fox News host in a two-part sit-down debuting Monday, April 17, and Tuesday, April 18. Coming just a week after the host’s interview with former President Donald Trump, he and Musk are expected to cover the state of Twitter, and “the controversy surrounding artificial intelligence and how it could change the planet forever,” per a release.
Musk purchased Twitter for $43 billion in 2022. Since taking over as CEO of the social media platform in October, he’s waded into one controversy after the next — from laying off approximately 80% of the staff, to sputtering the rollout of paid subscription service Twitter Blue, to allowing public figures’ verification process to falter and succumb to impersonators, to removing stopgaps and allowing hate speech to rise and advertisers to flee.
