What Tucker Carlson said about Trump in private texts vs. on Fox News
Days after Fox News agreed to pay a record $787.5 million to settle a defamation lawsuit over some of its hosts’ false claims about rigged voting in the 2020 election, the network on Monday announced it had parted ways with Tucker Carlson, the most-
watched cable news host in the country and a primary source of pro-Trump political punditry.
His last show was April 21, Fox said in a statement.
In grievance-filled monologues on Fox’s weeknight prime-time spot, Carlson advanced the false notion pushed by former president Donald Trump and his supporters that the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol was a peaceful protest.
But his on-air rhetoric was in dramatic opposition to private sentiments he shared with colleagues, in which he professed to “passionately” hate Trump and yearn for the end of his presidency. Those private communications, which were released as part
of Dominion Voting Systems’ defamation lawsuit against Fox News, showed how Carlson struggled to publicly support the president’s false voter-fraud theories that he privately scoffed at.
No! No! NO!. This is TOO good.
