One of CNN’s most famous liars, Brian Stelter, is claiming that Tucker Carlson and Fox News management are at odd with each other over the NSA spying on Tucker.
Nearly two weeks after Tucker Carlson charged that the National Security Agency spied on him in a conspiracy to destroy his TV show, Fox’s leaders and its other shows are mostly silent on the matter. On Saturday night, Jesse Watters framed an entire segment around it, but in the form of a question, “Is Tucker Carlson being spied on by the Biden administration?”
In other words, the network does not seem to believe its highest-rated star.
Maybe that helps explain why Carlson is “furious,” in the words of one source, with Fox News executives — furious because they’re not vigorously defending him. “Tensions are sky high,” the person told me, and Carlson is especially ticked off at the PR team “for not backing him up.”
Another source told Oliver Darcy that Carlson has “always had tension with” management, but said right now he’s “extra pissed.”
Stelter then requested a statement from Tucker, but got more than he bargained for…
Carlson has complained to colleagues and associates about what he perceives as a lack of support. When we inquired about it, two Fox reps ignored our requests for comment. But Carlson did respond to my text this way: “I’m not mad at anyone at Fox. If I was, I’d say so. I’m mad at you for lying relentlessly. What a loathsome person you are. Please print that.”
Boom! Short, to the point, and unabashedly truthful. I love it.
As far as the spying goes, I’ve no doubt that Tucker is telling the truth as he suggested on his show. He was adamant about the proof and I believe him. Honestly, after what was done to Trump, everyone should believe him. But the media is too busy helping the NSA cover up its crimes so they can get one over on Tucker.
Regarding what was leaked to the media last weekend – which, by the way, is exactly what Tucker said would happen. Even if the NSA didn’t leak the ‘contents’ of Tucker’s personal correspondences, that doesn’t mean anything. Sometimes spying on someone is about finding out where to look or what questions to ask so that they can dig deeper and expose that person for whatever.
And I’m guessing that’s exactly what happened. They spied on Tucker, figured out he was trying to set up an interview with Putin, and then they knew who to ask about it so they could then leak it. The reporting claims the government ‘learned’ about it, but we all know exactly what that means.
I was skeptical of Trump when he first started claiming in 2016 he was being spied on by the Obama government. But no more. I learned my lesson the hard way and now, in my opinion, the Biden administration is guilty until proven innocent.
