Carlson’s Text That Alarmed Fox Leaders: ‘It’s Not How White Men Fight’
DYNUZ ^ | 5-2-23 | Staff

A text message sent by Tucker Carlson that set off a panic at the highest levels of Fox on the eve of its billion-dollar defamation trial showed its most popular host sharing his private, inflammatory views about violence and race.

The discovery of the message contributed to a chain of events that ultimately led to Mr. Carlson’s firing.

In the message, sent to one of his producers in the hours after violent Trump supporters stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, Mr. Carlson described how he had recently watched a video of a group of men — Trump supporters, he said — violently attacking “an Antifa kid.”

It was “three against one, at least,” he wrote.

And then he expressed a sense of dismay that the attackers, like him, were white.

“Jumping a guy like that is dishonorable obviously,” he wrote.

“It’s not how white men fight,” he said. But he said he found himself for a moment wanting the group to kill the person he had described as the Antifa kid......

This is a pretext for firing, not the reason. It is part of the avalanche of BS surrounding Tucker's dismissal.

Since when is a bad for a white man to critique how white men fight?

FOX “leaders” are backstabbing globalists who we don’t need to leak content about.

Their character is on display and noted.

Yet more of this disinformation trickle to try and destroy Carlson. It is the Clinton /Lanny Davis /DNC way of doing business to smear and destroy. A version of “nuts and sluts” campaign.

Stating obvious facts is now a firing offense.

I will never kowtow to the myriad "privileged classes".

Is Tucker an idiot? No. Obviously, he knew anything he wrote on the company comms was liable for review. It’s looking more and more like he wanted to be fired.

They are after that Matt Taibbi and trying to ruin him for speaking about the Twitter findings. They sent the IRS to his house on the day he testified for Congress. He was on the left and they will take one of their own down if he steps out of line.

This is not a reason to fire him. Imagine the FOX snoop squad has far worse on other more controllable hires.

Rush used to say speaking the truth in this country nowadays will get you in trouble......once again he was light years ahead of the curve.

Wow you can’t say anything without being ostracized.

People need to curb the urge to spout all their views on “technology”. Here we are also on a network where easily we can be read and accused.

Tucker’s wrong. White men do fight like that, and worse.

It is racist to have white pride. That sentiment is reserved exclusively to nonwhites.

You can smell the fear.

IMHO this is all about the 2024 POTUS election cycle. They needed to have him out of the way.
