(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) On Tuesday evening, former Fox News host Tucker Carlson released a new Twitter video in which he revealed his plans going forward.
“Hey, it’s Tucker Carlson,” he begins. “You often hear people say the news is full of lies. But most of the time, that’s not exactly right. Much of what you see on television or read the New York Times is, in fact, true in the literal sense. It could pass one of the media’s own fact checks, lawyers who’d be willing to sign off on it. In fact, they may have, but that doesn’t make it true….
It’s not true. At the most basic level, the news you consume is a lie, a lie of the stealthiest and most insidious kind. Facts have been withheld on purpose, along with proportion and perspective. You are being manipulated.”
Tucker continues:
How does that work? Let’s see. If I tell you that a man has been unjustly arrested for armed robbery, that is not strictly speaking a lie. He may have been framed. At this point, there’s been no trial, so no one can really say. But if I don’t mention the fact that the same man has been arrested for the same crime six times before, am I really informing you? No, I’m not. I’m misleading. And that’s what the news media are doing in every story that matters every day of the week, every week of the year.
