Fox News host Tucker Carlson said Monday The New York Times was planning to publish a story this week on where his family lives to “hurt” them in an effort to make him “shut up and stop disagree with them”—a claim the paper denies.
“Last week The New York Times began working on a story about where my family and I live. As a matter of journalism there is no conceivable justification for a story like that. The paper is not alleging we’ve done anything wrong and we haven’t. We pay our taxes. We like our neighbors. We’ve never had a dispute with anyone,” he said.
“So why is The New York Times doing a story on the location of my family’s house? Well, you know why. To hurt us, to injure my wife and kids so that I will shut up and stop disagree with them. They believe in force. We’ve learned that.”
Carlson explained that two years ago a left-wing journalist posted the address of his home in Washington, which resulted in antifa showing up at his house while he was at work. His petrified wife hid in a closet and called police. Their home was vandalized, antifa returned to his house again, and for the next year they received death threats.
“We tried to ignore it and felt cowardly to sell our home and leave. We raised our kids in the neighborhood and we loved it. But in the end that’s what we did,” he explained. “We have four children. It just wasn’t worth it.”
But The New York Times followed us. The paper has assigned a political activist called Murray Carpenter to write a story about where we are now. They’ve hired a photographer called Tristan Spinski to take pictures. Their story about where we live is slated to run the paper this week. Editors there know exactly what will happen to my family when it does run. I called them today and I told them. But they didn’t care. They hate my politics. They want they show off the air. If one of my children gets hurt because of a story they wrote, they won’t considered it collateral damage, they know it’s the whole point of the exercise: To inflict pain on our family, to terrorize us, to control we say. That’s the kind of people they are. (Transcript via Daily Wire)
Carlson said the paper will deny it (which they did) and then questioned how the reporters working on the story would like it if he published their addresses and posted photos of their homes.
"Journalists" have been downsized so many times the only ones left are the one's in bed with democrat domestic terrorists, antifa, and other assorted thugs ...
I doubt the reporter or the photographer came up with this story on their own.
NOT that I'm suggesting we find the editor and kill him... because I'm not suggesting that - and I'm sure you weren't either... BUT if there was a total breakdown - a civil war - AND we MUST take out the press backing a commie take-over then... well, well then... that bunch could be first 'to go'....
Dude, what was Tucker trying to accomplish?
Are you talking about the same FBI that was part of the coup to bring down a duly elected President? That one?
That said, you're right. If there are still good people in the FBI they should look into this... and if there aren't laws to stop this type of harassment, then new laws need to be written.
We all know it's wrong - and the laws should reflect that...
They’re working to get rid of Tucker. Just like you said, he’s convincing.
Why debate him when the ‘democrat way’ is intimidation and bullying? That’s the tactic they’re using in our cities - that’s the tactic they use in the newsrooms they control....
The New York Times is perhaps the worst newspaper out there. They publish the worst garbage of any paper in the country. They play tricks like this all the time. Just watch!

I meant it in the nicest possible way. Apropos of nothing, there are generally regularly scheduled pickups for dumpsters.
“I read that “Liberal Sherpa” Kathy Areau is accusing Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity, among others, of sexual harassment.”
She ain’t all that good looking, so I can’t see how anyone would have even had any interest in her.
HMMMmmm…
Precedent...
Civil War II will take care of these assholes once and for all.
It’s coming.
Send the NYT an envelope with addresses of executives and pictures of their houses. And a picture of a burning building.
The Ginsburg panic has started.
This crap is nothing but manufactured nonsense.
I’m sorry. That was mean of me. Uncalled for.
LOL - no civ - we can not think in those terms...
This bespeaks as someone well armed & in a safe place. Tucker is doing a service to the country, I feel, & I sure hate to see him getting this kind of harassment regardless of where it’s coming from. I’m just afraid that it might work even more against him if he delivered a workable threat against the NYT, but I guess that’s what is needed unless they back off this kind of tactic. What they are doing is way beyond “Freedom of the Press”. They should probably be sued out of existence & their owners/bosses/ other perps in the organization jailed for a long time.
“This crap is nothing but manufactured nonsense.”
So, you don’t think NYT plans on dox’ing Carlson?
The NY Slimes chose sides back in the 1930s. They chose Stalin. Things haven't gotten any better since then.
