The latest headlines surrounding Dominion and FOX News show that there is much more to the story than the mainstream media would like to reveal.
In recent days, text messages have been leaked from Tucker Carlson‘s conversations with colleagues that suggest he was not a fan of former President Donald Trump. The timing of the leak is very suspicious, as it coincides with Carlson’s recent exposé on the January 6th protests and the Democrats’ Big Lie.
It seems that Dominion is using a tactic known as “lawfare” to discredit FOX News with its vast audience. They are releasing private text messages in an attempt to damage the reputation of the news organization. However, it is not clear how Dominion can legally release these private messages to the media.
The leaked messages show that Carlson was eager to move on from Trump and that he had grown tired of covering the former president. “We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights. I truly can’t wait,” he texted an unidentified person. “I hate him passionately. … I can’t handle much more of this,” he added.
These private comments are a far cry from what Carlson’s viewers are used to hearing from the conservative host on his prime-time show every night. In another text message, he referred to the last four years as a “disaster” and stated that there wasn’t really an upside to Trump.
The text messages were included in hundreds of pages of testimony, private text messages, and emails from top FOX News journalists and executives that were made public on Tuesday. The documents show that FOX News was in crisis mode after angering its audience by reporting accurately on the results of the 2020 presidential election.
Here is the text message thread:
Despite the release of these private messages, it is unlikely that Dominion will be successful in its lawsuit against FOX News. The company has faced criticism from its own engineers about the reliability of its software, which makes it unlikely that they will be able to prove their case in court.
It is worth noting that the timing of this leak is highly suspicious. The fact that it coincides with Carlson’s recent exposé on the January 6th protests suggests that there may be an effort to distract from the real issues at hand. It is important to focus on the facts and not be distracted by attempts to discredit FOX News or other news organizations.
