But they can be sued for libel and slander, as in this lawsuit.
It seems strange to have to impart basic civics lessons here.
”Why Tucker Carlson pretends to hate Elites"
found by copy pasting "Tucker Carlson, in his interview with Ben Shapiro while discussing self-driving trucks" into the google and getting lucky

Transcribed by me: "I would maybe make up some pretext for public consumption, like 'oh they're dangerous', 'the technology's not there yet'"
It's a perfect demonstration of a complete lack of integrity. The ends justify the means whenever he believes in it.
In a world where Tucker Carlson has gained more political power and is legislating some policy which should be very politically popular, he still believes the right way to do things is in an "ends justify the means" fashion, and would therefore be willing to mislead the public - and anyone else that required misleading - in order to enact this policy. Again, this is something that he argues would protect the jobs of millions of Americans.
How can you possibly think that we are taking it "out of context"? This is ironclad evidence for people who argue something like "Tucker Carlson is a lying maniac who puts himself and what he thinks is important before justice and integrity". Even when in idealistic hypotheticals constructed for PR, he still would do what he does best: make up pretext for public consumption.
In fact, he was making a very socialist / populist point that few on the Left would be able to disagree with.
That is, the point was about the national necessity of protecting a job base for a immense mass of people. Protecting it from robot capitalism.
