Andrew Tate will be appearing on the Tucker Carlson show after he was embroiled in a massive controversy online this last week. Tate has been de-platformed from most social media and finds a place to vent out his side of the story on Carlson’s daily news show.
The former kickboxer-turned mega influencer was a controversial figure in all aspects of the internet. His videos have a constant overtone of misogyny and added to his exposure to young audiences mainly in their teenage years have led many to fear the worst. Apart from this he has also faced charges of abuse in his home country of England and was recently under investigation for human trafficking in Romania.
Tucker has always made a point of having people who have been “silenced” on his show. The conservative Pundit is known to be at the forefront of reporting on the so-called “culture war” and touts himself as one of the voices of the voiceless quite often.
