Did Murdoch Shut Tucker Down? Rumblings that Tucker Changed His Show Plan After Threats and Pressure from Regime

Did Tucker Carlson change his show plan last night?

In late February Tucker Carlson announced that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy granted him unfettered access to the Jan. 6, 2021 protest footage at the US Capitol.

Axios reported that House Speaker McCarthy handed over 41,000 hours of Jan 6 Capitol footage to Tucker Carlson at FOX News.

Tucker Carlson made an announcement on the news later that day. Speaker Kevin McCarthy gave Tucker Carlson and his team unfettered access to over 44,000 hours of January 6 footage.

Tucker was the only media outlet allowed to access the thousands of hours of footage.

Since the announcement, The Gateway Pundit and 33 January 6 Defendants and dozens of their family members and supportive outlets have signed a petition demanding Kevin McCarthy give access to The Gateway Pundit and the January 6 Defendants and their families who are not being provided the critical government video for their trials.

Last Thursday night Tucker Carlson told his audience he will release information this week on his team’s analysis of the 42,000 hours of video footage from January 6, 2021 protests.

Tucker’s Monday show was explosive – Tucker Carlson immediately exposed how many of the narratives propagated by the January 6 commission were vicious lies.

Among these lies were Brian Sicknick being murdered by protesters, (Tucker showed he was unharmed), Jacob Chansley aka “The Qanon Shaman” committing sedition (he marched peacefully throughout the Capitol), and Ray Epps being a patriotic whistleblower (he perjured himself before the committee.

Then the US Senate leaders Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell jumped into action. They cannot allow their narratives to be disrupted. Schumer went to the Senate floor and threatened Tucker Carlson and FOX News for daring to show video evidence from that day.

Mitch McConnell sided with Schumer and against the American people.

Tuesday night’s show was tampered down. Tucker Carlson did not release any explosive video. His interview with a Capitol Hill police officer was interesting but subdued. There were no big “reveals” on the show last night.

Now there are suggestions that Rupert Murdoch and the FOX News brass got to Tucker and changed his show plan.

Investigative reporter Sharly Attkisson tweeted out that the show plan was changed.

Via Midnight Rider.

There is so much from January 6 that is left to be discussed.

Tucker Carlson has yet to report on the four Trump supporters who died that day and the police involvement in each of their deaths.

That pretty much guarantees they framed peaceful citizens and wrongly imprisoned them. They have gone full Nazi.

The regime cannot hide it true nature anymore, live accordingly.

Yup, this is why they are releasing the footage to just Carlson. Because they can control him.

This is why McCarthy didn’t release the material to Twitter and instead filtered it thru Fox news

Shut down OANN, Newsmax, and now they want to take out Fox.

That is their goal. No opposition to their narrative. And the sheeple said BAHhhh...

If this is true, and one would be inclined to believe so if Sharyl Attkisson says it is, and if Tucker has moral courage, Tucker will resign from Fox immediately, like right now.

He would then take the story elsewhere.

Unfortunately, that's fiction. Even if viewership drops, big companies will be directed to continue to ads as a reward to Fox for muzzling Carlson or some tax break "fine tuning" will be added by Mitch.

It's corporate-fascism top to bottom in America now.

Although I don’t trust Bannon at all, I was surprised by the lack of new video on Tucker last night.

I have no doubt Murdoch and Ryan handcuffed Tucker. With all the scrutiny they could not just shut him down so they kneecapped him. There is a reason McCarthy only gave it to Tucker and that reason was to limit how much could come out.

The Dung Beetles own Murdoch now that Rush is gone. A liberal looks at he cross-eyed and he wets his pants.

A. Nice blanket accusation. You then must be one of the only uncorrupted heroes left in America.

B. Either that or you are well and aptly named.

After deep contemplation, I choose B.
