The Kremlin confirmed on Wednesday that former Fox News host Tucker Carlson interviewed Russian President Vladimir Putin during his visit to Moscow, but disputed a claim he made that Western journalists hadn't attempted to interview the leader throughout the war.
-snip-
Peskov said Carlson is "wrong" by suggesting that Western journalists haven't attempted to interview Putin—an assertion the former Fox News host made in a lengthy video announcing his interview with the Russian leader.
"He, in fact, cannot know this. We receive many requests for interviews with the president," Peskov said.
-snip-
Many Western journalists have interviewed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, but "not a single Western journalist has bothered to interview" the Russian president, Carlson claimed.

"not a single Western journalist has bothered to interview" the Russian president, Carlson claimed.Interviewing and requesting an interview are two different things.

I’m guessing many tried, Tucker, but weren’t given permission.

The first interview was done on Monday and it turned out terrible. So it was trashed and new interview was conducted yesterday.

Isabel looks like the vast majority of those reporting to their walled-off cubicles at The New York Times, and The Washington Compost, this morning.

No, he said Tucker misspoke and that Tucker’s statement was thus inaccurate. He also clarified that Tucker would have no way of knowing that other western journalists have requested interviews from Putin. Apparently none of those requests were granted, where as Tucker’s request was granted.

It’s always nice to hear from marxistminimus, the turd in the FR punch bowl.
