Demokratenes ledere i Kongressen, Chuck Schumer og Hakeem Jeffries ber i et felles brev til Rupert Murdoch om at han strammer opp Tucker Carlson og likesinnede som fortsetter å spre oppfatningen om at valget i 2020 var stjålet. Demokratene ber rett ut Murdoch om å sensurere de mest populære talkshowvertene i Amerika.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (NY) on Wednesday demanded Rupert Murdoch silence Tucker Carlson and other Fox News hosts.
“Order Tucker Carlson and other hosts on Fox News to stop spreading the Big Lie.” Schumer said.
Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries sent Rupert Murdoch a letter demanding he censor Fox News hosts.
Grunnen til ønsket om sensur er at TV-vertene fortsetter å spre oppfatningen om at valget i 2020 ble stjålet. The Big Lie.
“As noted in your deposition released yesterday, Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, and other Fox News personalities knowingly, repeatedly, and dangerously endorsed and promoted the Big Lie that Donald Trump won the 2020 presidential election. Though you have acknowledged your regret in allowing this grave propaganda to take place, your network hosts continue to promote, spew, and perpetuate elections conspiracy theories to this day,” the Democrat wrote in a letter to Rupert Murdoch referring to the Dominion lawsuit.
Men Demokratene synes ikke å se noen motsetning i at de selv spredte samme oppfatning om Trump i 2016.
