Provided to New York Times and to Media Matters which was founded by long time Hillary Clinton Allied David Brock while the first to go public was a video of Tucker speaking casually and criticizing Fox Nation watch this I don’t want to be a slave to Fox Nation which I don’t
Think that many people watch anyway but nobody’s going to watch it on Fox Nation nobody watches Fox Nation because the site sucks so I’d really like to just put the dump the whole thing on YouTube um but anyway that’s just my view um uh I’m just frustrated with uh in it’s
Hard to use that site I don’t know why they’re not fixing it it’s driving me insane and they’re like making like Lifetime movies but they don’t they don’t work on the infrastructure of the site like what it’s crazy and it drives me crazy because it’s like we’re doing
All this extra work and no one can find it it’s unbelievable actually we’re like working like animals to produce all this content and the people in charge of it whoever that guy’s whatever his name is like they’re ignoring the fact that the site doesn’t work and it’s I think it’s
Like a betrayal of our efforts that’s how I feel so I of course I resent it so basically Tucker is saying he wants to do a formal interview and not a casual interview and criticizes the Fox Nation flat platform suggesting the amount of work that goes into what he’s doing is
Not justified by the lower view viewership on the platform or by it’s difficult to use uh user interface now it’s a fair critique some would argue but here’s another video that was leaked with an off-camera discussion between Tucker Carlson and Pierce Morgan I think it’s totally cool
So let’s um is if we’re going to talk about sex I’d love to hit some of the fine points of technique but you know but it’s your show it’s totally up to you we can certainly talk about your sexual technique especially after your tanning testicles last week
Not mine we’ll speak in more general terms but I’ve got something to add too much scandalous well you’d be the judge of that of course what the media is missing is the context of these comments they were talking about Tucker’s special feature end of men which is in why testosterone levels
And men were dropping and also whether this is being caused by chemicals in our environment regardless the public has spoken on this issue it appears the overwhelming public sentiment is actually still with Tucker here’s a small sample of Twitter users that show really what is the general tone
Catherine Ivy here says these have been so fun to watch I hope they have one I hope they have more one of the few commentators I would pay to watch another one jumbleweed says how does it make him look bad now we’ve seen him without his makeup and generally many of
Them are like this folks aside from the videos released by Media Matters which is known for its attacks on conservative media the New York Times also came out with his own hit piece using Fox documents that were leaked to them part of this is attempting to frame The
Narrative on why Tucker left fox now I should note it’s still not publicly clear at least why Tucker Carlson and Fox News parted ways there are plenty of rumors on this but really these rumors aren’t the official excuses being pushed by the corporate media the New York
Times and others claim that Tucker was fired for criticizing the fox leadership now they published this story it says Carlson’s text that alarmed Fox leaders it’s not how white men fight the discovery of the text message contributed to a chain of events they say at least ultimate that ultimately
Led to Tucker Carlson’s firing now in it they show a text message that Tucker sent to a producer I’ll read it here you’d be the judge Tucker said this he said a couple weeks ago I was watching video of people fighting on the street in Washington a group of trump guys
Surrounded an antifa kid and started pounding the living expletive out of him he said it was three against one at least jumping a guy like that is dishonorable obviously it’s not how white men fight yet suddenly I found myself rooting for the mob against the man hoping they’d hit him harder kill
Him I really wanted them to hurt the kittens Tucker of course saying this Tucker said I could taste it then somewhere deep in my brain an alarm went off this isn’t good for me I’m becoming something I don’t want to be he said the antifa creep is a human being much as I
Despise what he says and does much as I’m sure I’d hate him personally if I knew him I shouldn’t gloat over his suffering I should be I should be bothered by it I should remember that somewhere somebody probably loves this kid it would be crushed if he was killed
If I don’t care about those things if I reduce people to their politics how am I better than he is now on this public sentiment on that one was really divided more along partisan lines many on the left claim the Tweet was racist many on the right pointed out
The Tucker’s statement was really an introspection of not getting pulled in by hate and to not judge people by their politics now again up to you agree or disagree you be the judge but more broadly speaking most of the debate with the leaks hasn’t been much
About Tucker at all instead much of the official debate has shifted to just what took place behind the scenes what looks like an attempt really to destroy Tucker Carlson’s reputation people are wondering who leaked these files who leaked the documents they want to know why leaked videos and text messages were
Handed over to Media Matters and the New York Times which would be expected of course to use them for partisan hit pieces and they want to know whether Fox is involved with these attacks on a former star host of the network now former former Fox News talk show
Host Kelly Megan Kelly who now hosts the Megyn Kelly show said that Fox News itself at least she says maybe trying to destroy Tucker Carlson’s credibility watch this all right so let me tell you what this is about I was talking with Melissa Francis who
Came on this show last week and a long time fox bat too we talked about how the mission now has to be Tucker’s audience can’t go with him these numbers at APM are disaster for Fox and Tucker cannot go to Newsmax which has offered him big numbers according to reports
Newsmax would love to have Tucker just slide on over to APM and unlike digital media it would allow him to remain live which I know Tucker really likes and there would be some reasons to do that I could see why Tucker would say yes to that I’m sure
They’re finding ways to open the bank account new ways for Tucker but you see that’s a threat to Fox that actually is a real threat to Fox and so what we have to Telegraph to Chris Ruddy who owns Newsmax and any other potential employer is Tucker’s he’s difficult he’s not a
Team player he rips on you from the inside you see he calls women allegedly the c word in his private messages which were never meant to see the light of day we need a police the way you think now you see even on your private time he he
Says bad things about the company’s digital offerings and by the way at news match their digital offering is their strongest brand that’s where they make their money they’re digital brand so you see he’s a hassle he’s a difficult employee he’s not a team player he rips
On you from the inside this is all an orchestrated hit job in my opinion and it’s not a subtle one so is this just a hit job well in reality we still don’t know but others in the news industry are suggesting this as well investigative journalists Glenn
Greenwald for example had this to say he wrote on Twitter there’s obviously a decision by Fox to wage a massive war on Tucker Carlson’s character partnering both with both the nyt New York Times and Media Matters to do it and it’s extremely odd for many reasons beginning
With the fact that he hasn’t uttered a negative word about them Tucker is also in a difficult position he’s still under contract as Fox folks and because of this he’s not able to give interviews to defend himself he’s muzzled while he’s being attacked and at the same time it
Appears someone at the company that is under contract with to not speak publicly is leaking information about him to destroy his credibility and damage his ability to find work in the news industry so given this situation that it seems like Fox is again the leaker there is attacking Tucker and a
Fox contract as I’m unable to defend himself or speak about it will Fox either allow Tucker to speak to defend himself or will the network come out to defend him against these leaks if they don’t do one of those two things they risk looking like they’re behind it
