Friend,
Tucker Carlson’s laundry list of heinous commentaries is exhausting. And last night he used his show to justify murder.
This shouldn’t be up for debate: Fox News must fire Tucker Carlson.
While the country is reeling from the shooting of Jacob Blake by white police officers in front of his children, Carlson chose to focus on the white 17-year-old “Blue Lives Matter” vigilante who brought an assault rifle to the protests against police violence — and murdered two people.
“How shocked are we that 17-year-olds with rifles decided they had to maintain order when no one else would,” Carlson spouted last night.
Maintain order.
Murder, in the name of “order.”
Demand that Fox News fire Tucker Carlson immediately.
Carlson has claimed that white supremacy is a “hoax” and “actually not a real problem in America” — and has said that “the problem is there aren’t that many hate crimes occurring in the country.”
He has a long history of making revolting comments about Black people and other communities of color on his show. And now he’s using his platform to justify murder.
Fox’s choice here is clear: Fire. Tucker. Carlson.
As long as dangerous white supremacists condoning murder have a platform on Fox News, the lives of people of color will remain in danger.
Thank you for speaking out,
Candace, Nilda and the rest of the Free Press team

P.S. Enough is enough: If Fox Corporation CEO Lachlan Murdoch has even a fraction of a conscience, he must fire Tucker Carlson.
