During his Australian tour, Tucker Carlson faced heated exchanges with journalists, particularly AAP's Kat Wong, over his alleged promotion of the 'Great Replacement Theory'. Carlson denied ever stating that 'whites are being replaced' and challenged Wong to cite any instance, which she failed to do. He reiterated that his comments focused on native-born Americans, including African-Americans. In another interaction, Carlson mocked a reporter's question about his stance on Putin and dismissed concerns over COVID-19 vaccines. Carlson's confrontational style and controversial remarks have drawn significant media attention and criticism throughout his tour.
