FOX News’ powerhouse Tucker Carlson is a control freak who acts brave and brash when grilling guests on his show, but secretly shies away from people, hates to hug or shake hands, sold his family home after it was surrounded by protestors and has fled to a private enclave, sources say.
On his show, Carlson acts like a ferocious fighter for freedom, defending people’s right to oppose COVID vaccine shots and mask mandates.
Yet the 52-year-old right winger — voted 2021’s most influential person in the news media by the website Mediaite — refuses to publicly disclose his own vaccination status.
Meanwhile behind the scenes, FOX bigwigs have mandated the shots for employees and require him to admit his vaccination status to them and keep it updated on an internal database.
“You’d expect Tucker to lead a revolt,” says a source, “as this is against his message on personal freedoms.
“Also, why is he so hesitant to say if he had the shot or not?”
Insiders insist talking head Tucker’s refusal to back his anti-vax stance with a public admission of his own status is typical behavior for FOX’s highest-rated star. Tucker calls the shots at work, but hides his off-camera life from the public, spies dish.
