Mediaite

Tucker Carlson appears to have attempted to mislead his viewers as to why he is back on Twitter after a month-long break.
Carlson, who was suspended by the censor-happy platform on March 23, attributed his return on Monday to Elon Musk on his nightly show.
Twitters board of directors voted on Monday to accept Musks $44 billion offer to buy the company following weeks of back-and-forth. The deal is expected to close later this year. Until then, Musk does not control Twitter.
Conservatives have broadly celebrated the move, which will presumably give some balance to a platform dominated by liberal corporate and media culture. Carlson also hailed the development in his monologue.
