ABC’s Jon Karl: FNC’s Tucker Carlson ‘Echoing’ Putin’s Propaganda
Breitbart ^ | 03/10/2022 | Pam Key

Posted on 03/10/2022 6:42:59 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

ABC News’ Jon Karl said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that Fox News host Tucker Carlson was “echoing” Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “classic propaganda.”

Anchor Nicolle Wallace said, “During Tucker Carlson’s show, Tucker Carlson led with and amplified, he chose to start his very, very highly rated program by amplifying Russia’s false claims that Jennifer Griffin, Fox News national security correspondent, knocks down.”

Yup. The MSM is working OT to refute these biological weapons claims as propaganda. They’re acting like people with something to hide.

The fact that Russia says something doesn't automatically make it false. Neither of those morons said that anything Carlson said is wrong. They're just saying "Carlson is saying the same thing Russia has said!". They're committing one or more logical fallacies. Ignoratio elenchi, where someone asserts something that doesn't prove their conclusion (even if what they say is true) comes to mind.

Technically they didn't commit Ignoratio elenchi because they don't claim to be proving anything. Maybe it's more like Poisoning the well.

Poisoning the well (or attempting to poison the well) is a type of informal fallacy where adverse information about a target is preemptively presented to an audience, with the intention of discrediting or ridiculing something that the target person is about to say. Poisoning the well can be a special case of argumentum ad hominem, and the term was first used with this sense by John Henry Newman in his work Apologia Pro Vita Sua (1864).[1] The etymology of the phrase lies in well poisoning, an ancient wartime practice of pouring poison into sources of fresh water before an invading army, to diminish the invading army's strength.

What’s sad is how so many Americans thought that Russia invading Ukraine was a partisan issue and ‘points’ were to be made between Republicans and Democrats.

Meanwhile Russians and Ukrainians are dying for the vainglorious satisfaction of a scumsucking dictator who hides in a Moscow bunker.

I hear what you are saying, but understand ever since Trump came on the scene in 2016, the Democrats and their Never Trumper Republican lackeys have tried to paint Trump and Putin as best buds.

It’s kind of hard to not be somewhat partisan about this after all that.

I wonder why not a single person in the Media has asked why Vindman hasn’t stood up and boarded a plane to Ukraine. He’s on-line asking people to go fight while he sits on his ass.

I wonder if Karl and his brethren are getting the creepy feeling that everyone in this BS "administration" is completely inept, and fearing they have before them a few useless and deeply embarrassing years trying to cover up for idiots.

Wouldn’t have been much controversy if the State dept (Victoria Nuland, yeah, her) and WH kept their stories straight. Now my curiosity is up.

To the left-wind media, and to democrats in general, Tucker Carlson is the FNC equivalent of Donald Trump. They have to take him out no matter what and no matter how. Soon, they’ll find somebody who was sexually harassed by Tucker, some 30+ years ago, even if not true.

Thus, the phrase, “Don’t poison the well. You may have to drink the water.” Works in a small town like mine.

Did you happen to catch the one a few days ago where this kid had on a financial expert and the guy went off on a rant?

He blamed the western countries for starting this war about 30 (or more) years ago.

He had a very valid point and the kid went nuts.

Hey geniuses, did you bother watching Victoria Nuland’s testimony? Did you watch Tucker’s segment where he posted webpages that had been posted by the US State Department before they were memory holed?

Of course NBC would know a thing or two about spreading false propaganda......

War is a constant in the history of the world. It will never change, and it will always be prone to partisan politics. In fact, it’s partisan politics that start and fuel the wars.
