Bunker USA: What a Tuckin’ week – Carlson’s out, Biden’s in

It’s been a bit of a week over in the US. First, after Fox News paid out almost $1 billion to Dominion, Tucker Carlson left the network. After that Biden announced he’d be running for president again, albeit slowly. And then if that wasn’t enough, Carlson released a pretty profound statement about his departure on Twitter. Hoping to unpack it all is Julie Norman, co-director of UCL’s Centre on US Politics. She joined Jacob Jarvis in the Bunker.

• “Tucker Carlson has been controversial for a while but through all of that his viewings were super high, the highest in cable news.”
• “One person that would maybe challenge Trump would be Tucker Carlson.”
• “Biden knows he’s going to get hit from the right as a big spender.”
