🚨Tucker Carlson has now been CALLED OUT for LYING about three people this year - all of them former colleagues, friends, or guests on his shows.
1. Victor Davis Hanson - September 10
Tucker claimed historian
@VDHanson was “talking about the glories of Hiroshima.”
Hanson responded that he has never called the atomic bombings of WWII “glorious.” He said they were necessary to save lives and challenged Tucker to produce evidence that he had ever said otherwise - or apologise.
No response from Tucker.
2. Blake Neff - September 17
Tucker claimed
@BlakeSNeff had endorsed censorship in a Politico profile.
In reality, Tucker had taken Neff’s comments out of context and misrepresented his position. Neff called Tucker’s attack “dishonest and completely unfair.”
No response from Tucker.
3. Dan Bongino - June
Tucker claimed
@dbongino texted him that Trump had shut down the Butler assassination investigation.
Bongino published the texts, which contained no such statement, accused Tucker of having “just made it up,” and gave Carlson permission to publish all of their correspondence if he could prove otherwise.
No response from Tucker.
The pattern is becoming pretty clear: Tucker attacks former allies he now sees as enemies of his current cause, using distorted quotes or in some case just making things up.
Then, when they publicly challenge him to back up what he said, he cowardly doesn’t respond. Simply moving on to the next hit piece and hoping the attacks stick.
