Tucker Carlson made his first public statement since being abruptly ousted from Fox News on Monday.

In a 2-minute video posted to Twitter, the former primetime host did not mention the network, but criticized "American media" and "both political parties" for ignoring the "undeniably big topics" that will "define our future."

"Where can you still find Americans saying true things? There aren't many places left, but there are some, and that's enough. As long as you can hear the words, there is hope," Carlson said. "See you soon."
