How White Men Fight

The only thing more shocking than Tucker Carlson's recently revealed text messages are the racist lies and conspiracy theories promoted on Fox News every day.

The executives at Fox want us to believe that Tucker Carlson was fired for sending hateful text messages that were only recently discovered. That is clearly a lie. The Fox News brand is racist lies, bigotry, and conspiracy theories. Rupert Murdoch fired Tucker Carlson for the same reason he does everything: MONEY!

She Will Not Be Silenced

In acts of extraordinary individual courage, these women are publicly speaking out against the hateful, violent misogyny that defines Trump's GOP.

E. Jean Carroll who is suing Donald Trump said in court, “I’m here because Donald Trump raped me, and when I wrote about it, he said it didn’t happen.” Amanda Zurawski accused Senator Cruz and Cornyn of supporting a Texas abortion ban, “I nearly died on their watch… as a result of what happened to me, I may have been robbed of the opportunity to have children in the future.” Abbey Grossberg is suing Fox News, said Tucker Carlson and his producer Justin Wells, “were responsible for breaking me and making my life a living hell.” And Rep. Zooey Zephyr warned the Republican controlled Montana state legislature that, "If you use decorum to silence people who hold you accountable, all you are doing is using decorum as a tool of oppression.”

Never Having to Say You're Sorry

There are some things money can't buy, but not having to issue a public apology for lying about the 2020 election will cost Fox News $787.5 million.

In an 11th hour settlement with Dominion Voting Systems, Fox News agreed to pay $787.5 million in damages to avoid the humiliation of having their election lies exposed in a public trial. Fox avoided a public apology this time, but still faces a $2.7 billion defamation lawsuit from Smartmatic that has vowed to expose the “misconduct and damage caused by Fox’s disinformation campaign.”

Pretty Much a Crime

Fox News Chairman Rupert Murdoch called Trump’s election lies false and a “huge disservice to the country.”

Just two weeks after the Jan. 6 Insurrection, Rupert Murdoch emailed Fox News Media Chief Suzanne Scott that, “Trump insisting on the election being stolen and convincing 25% of Americans was a huge disservice to the country. Pretty much a crime." But Fox News execs and hosts decided to lie for ratings and ordered that disputing Trump’s false claims of election fraud “has to stop” because it is “bad for business.”

A Demonic Force, a Destroyer

Tucker Carlson continues to lie about the January 6 Insurrection to his Fox News audience, despite text messages that reveal his disdain for Trump and the Big Lie of election fraud.

The Dominion defamation lawsuit has exposed the hypocrisy of Fox News host Tucker Carlson who publicly continues to lie about the Jan. 6 Insurrection while privately calling the plot to steal the election as “shockingly reckless” and “absurd”. Even Republican Senators are calling Carlson’s lies “very dangerous” and that January 6 “was not peaceful, it was an abomination.” Privately, Carlson has repeatedly expressed his disdain for the former President saying, “I hate him passionately.” Carlson even said that Trump is the “undisputed world champion” at “destroying things” and called Trump “a demonic force, a destroyer.”

Fox News Lied for Ratings

Rupert Murdoch admits under oath that everyone at Fox knew the 2020 election "was on the up-and-up," but still broadcast Trump's Big Lie for ratings and profit.

Internal communications and under oath testimony has revealed that Fox hosts and executives made the decision to knowingly repeat Trump's lies of election fraud to keep viewers from switching to more conservative news outlets.
