The Fox News Channel announced on Friday that it will be airing a two-part interview hosted by Tucker Carlson that will feature African-American entrepreneur and Twitter owner Elon Musk.
Fox stated that the pair will “discuss the controversy surrounding artificial intelligence and how it could change the planet forever.”
Musk will reportedly “share the inside story on Twitter and the drastic changes he is making to the social media platform, as well as the future of Tesla and the latest SpaceX launch.”
Carlson recently netted a major interview with former president Donald Trump.
Musk, meanwhile, was recently interviewed by a left-wing journalist from the BBC who was unable to answer some of Musk’s counter-questions.

Musk sat down earlier this week with BBC “journalist” James Clayton for an interview, where the two had a now-viral argument over Twitter’s alleged rise in “hateful content,” as well as Twitter’s COVID “misinformation” policy changes.
During their conversation, Clayton, without any evidence to back himself up, claimed that Musk’s acquisition of the company has resulted in “a rise in hateful content.”
“Content you don’t like or hateful, describe a hateful thing?” Musk asked.
Clayton replied, “I mean you know just content that will elicit a reaction, something I mean something that is slightly racist or slightly sexist, those kinds of things.”
“So you think if something is slightly sexist it should be banned?” Musk retorted. “No, I’m not saying anything,” said Clayton.
Left-wing media outlet National Public Radio has fled Twitter after being labeled “government-funded media” by the Elon Musk-owned social media platform.
“We are not putting our journalism on platforms that have demonstrated an interest in undermining our credibility and the public’s understanding of our editorial independence,” the outlet told The Hill in a statement. “We are turning away from Twitter but not from our audiences and communities.”
Twitter originally labeled NPR as “state affiliated media” last week, a designation that previously had only been reserved for outlets that were critical of US foreign policy, such as RT.
The label was then changed to “government-funded media.”
