Fox News fired its most popular host Tucker Carlson on Monday. Today, Mikhail Robninikov, the president of the Russian propaganda news network Putie-Vision, announced Carlson would be hosting a new show on May 1st.
“We are excited to have Comrade Carlson on our team,” Robninikov tells The Lint Screen. “He will be most important asset to Putie-Vision. The launch date of May the first is important for it is ‘The Day of Spring and Labour,’ a popular holiday in Mother Russia with parades and many destructive weapons displayed.”
Putie-Vision recently launched in most USA markets as a pipeline of pure Russian propaganda.
“We shall battle liberal channels like Fox News, Newsmax, and One America News Network,” Robninikov declares. “Comrade Tucker was good asset at Fox, but now he can be unleashed. Tucker Truth Time will be unfiltered, allowing him to speak his mind completely.”
Robninikov believes Tucker’s loyal fans will follow him to Putie-Vision.
“We expect big rating surge thanks to Comrade Tucker,” the network exec says. “And will secure even more viewers when we debut Donald J. Trump Fearless Leader Time sponsored by Mr. Pillow.”
The Russian becomes animated as he continues.
“This show will allow glorious American leader to tell of the many slights he has suffered and list his many grievances. He will speak of bold new future awaiting Amerika under his bold and strong leadership after landslide victory beating evil Joe Biden. Comrade Trump’s co-host will be Comrade Marjorie Taylor Greene––most beautiful woman with big brain.”
The pudgy fifty-something Russian laughs.
“Check and mate, Rupert Murdoch,” he says, smiling. “We win war!”
