Elon Musk is asking other TV news anchors to turn to Twitter, just like Tucker Carlson did after his Fox News sacking.

The Twitter owner shared on the digital platform that he would like to balance the personalities who spread the news on the social network with left-leaning moderators.

“That would be great [Rachel Maddow], Don Lemon and others on the left make their shows available on this platform. No exclusivity or legal documents required!” He tweeted Thursday.

Musk continued, “You have our full support. The digital city square is for everyone.”

The news came after Carlson posted his Twitter show on the platform. This wasn’t the first time Musk suggested that Lemon post a show on Twitter. On May 9, Musk made the proposal to join the digital space by responding to Lemon’s April 24 statement announcing that he had been terminated by CNN.

“Have you thought about doing your show on this platform? Maybe worth a try. The audience is a lot bigger,” Musk said tweeted.

While Lemon has received an invite to continue breaking the news, the former CNN This Morning co-host appears to be in no “hurry” to find a new job.

“I don’t have to rush to another job even if I want another job,” Lemon recently told Extra. “I do, I want to go back to work but I’m lucky to be in a position where I don’t have to worry about those things.”

Lemon said he’s going to “spend my summer on the beach and on the boat with my family and just chilling and I’ll see what happens next.”
