Russian TV news channel Rossiya 24 has aired a trailer for a weekend show featuring former Fox News journalist Tucker Carlson.

The state-run broadcaster did not make clear whether it will feature original content or be a translation of his regular English-language videos on X.

Carlson abruptly left Fox News in April where his populist conservative takes were renowned.

Rossiya 24 has not yet said when the show will air.

The advert, first shared earlier this month, aired again on 22 September with the words “on the weekend” but no further details.

    I’m guessing you’re not old enough to remember Ronnie Reagan calling the Soviets “the evil empire.” Tensions were incredibly high in the early 80s, and the Republicans were super hawkish about it. I was a kid at the time and convinced we were all going to die in a nuclear holocaust.

      I was there and remember the same. You’re saying that was worse than the McCarthy Hearings?

      I wasn’t saying things were flipped long ago, just an wild flip.
