Hours after the decision to fire Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson, Russia Today received a job offer and an open invitation to come to Russia.
One of the station’s most prominent commentators, Vladimir Solov, said: “We are happy to offer you a job to continue as a broadcaster and presenter! You are always welcome in Russia and Moscow and we wish you good luck.
Soloyev called on Carlson to run for the presidency of the United States in an email: “We applaud and support you at every step of your decision whether to run for the presidency of the United States (which you should do) or start an independent media project.”

Immediately after the decision was announced, the station’s stock fell 5 percent, losing more than $500 million in market value.
