The morning Tucker Carlson’s abrupt departure from Fox was announced, a Twitter account for Tucker Carlson Originals, his “documentary” series, was extremely busy with cattle mutilation.
Originals aired on Fox Nation, the network’s online streaming service, and that morning, the Twitter account was recirculating clips from a 2022 special speculating about whether the cattle mutilators are, you know, aliens. For the program, Carlson and Co. even hired a butcher to attempt to “recreate” a cattle mutilation and concluded—of course—that such butchering simply couldn’t be done by human hands.
