In an unexpected twist that harkens back to one of television’s most infamous off-the-cuff moments, Tucker Carlson has electrified the media landscape with a bold announcement.

Channeling the spirit of former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly’s legendary on-air outburst, Carlson announced on X, “F*ck it. We’ll do it live! Thursday night, March 7, our live response to Joe Biden’s State of the Union speech.”

The reference to O’Reilly’s exasperated declaration during his tenure at “Inside Edition” was not only a humorous nod but also a signal of Carlson’s readiness to tackle the challenges of live commentary head-on.

“So when this is finally over, I guess I’ll write analysis of it or whatever. We’ll put it up tomorrow,” Carlson mused initially, hinting at the traditional post-event analysis route.

However, the conversation quickly took a turn towards the spontaneous. “What do you mean?” a voice off-camera questioned, prompting Carlson to reconsider.

“Yeah, but I need… yeah, but I got to write it. No, come on. We can’t go right on after this. This is too nuts. I need time to think about what it means,” he argued, only to decisively pivot moments later with a resolute, “We’ll do it live. Okay. We’ll do it live! We’ll do it live!”

Carlson’s commitment to a live broadcast is an approach that eschews the safety net of pre-written analysis in favor of the raw, unfiltered reactions that live coverage entails. In evoking O’Reilly’s memorable meltdown, the former Fox News host paid homage to a legendary figure in conservative media and also set the stage for what promises to be a captivating broadcast.
