New filing shows Tucker Carlson tried to get a Fox reporter fired for correctly factchecking Donald Trump's false claims about Dominion
"A recent filing in the Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit against Fox News reveals that after the 2020 presidential election, the network’s prime-time host Tucker Carlson tried to get a Fox reporter fired for fact-checking former President Donald Trump’s election lie involving Dominion.
The filing, totalling 192 pages, shows the extent to which the network knew it was pushing false claims to its viewers in the aftermath of the 2020 election by suggesting that Dominion’s machines were involved in voter fraud. The lawyers for Dominion lay out a seemingly endless list of facts and evidence that show how from producers to on-air personalities to executives to Rupert Murdoch himself, “literally dozens of people with editorial responsibility” acted with, in Dominion’s view, “actual malice.”
Among other bombshell revelations, the filing describes a series of text messages exchanged on November 12, 2020, between Carlson and other prime-time hosts Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham. In the exchange, Carlson referred to Fox reporter Jacqui Heinrich and asked Hannity to “please get her fired” for a tweet in which she, according to the filing, “correctly fact-checked” Trump’s tweet regarding Dominion’s role in the 2020 election."
