Tucker Carlson Outed As Secret Source: Reportedly Dished On Trump, Fox News

Sorry ... huffpo/nyt /yahoo so probably bs (interesting gaslight that all 3 jump on this)

BTW, Have not watched a minute of fox since election but...swamp?

Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who routinely rails against the mainstream media, is reportedly a secret and frequent source for reporters in the very organizations he attacks, according to the New York Times.

Smith said he trades messages with Carlson himself, and said 16 other journalists from outlets other than the Times had all said Carlson has been a source, with three calling him a “great source.”

This would be sad if true. Seems like they are getting ahead of something else

That article presumes Tucker knows something in the first place.

I'm not talking pithy analysis, but knows legit dirt to dish.

They want him gone badly and have been trying for years now to get rid of him. Nothing has worked and he still has the number 1 news show so time to ramp up the bullshite.

Let's see, so Carlson starts talking about the FBI being involved in Jan. 6 and then magically an article
1. Posted on Yahoo
2. Quoting someone from the New York Times.
3. Originally posted on The Huffington Post.

says unnamed media sources (other than Ben Smith from the New York Times) are using Carlson as sources. Those unnamed media sources wouldn't happen to be people like Malcolm Nance, Phil Mudd, James Clapper, John Brennon, or any of the other dozens of former intelligence agency officials that are now working in the media by any chance would they?

He didn’t need to be outed. The bowtie and his girlish demeanor already did that.

Bingo. What they're hoping to do is discredit Tucker in the eyes of his viewers, "frick that guy, if he's working behind the scenes with the MSM", so when additional info comes to light about Jan 6 being a giant sting operation to entrap MAGA folks, some of his viewers have tuned him out.

In my mind I 'zoom out' of this story to see it amongst the bigger context picture of the message against the background of the source, the alignment of media outlet, and the audience that outlet typically caters to.

When I do this, it has no credibility.

Doesn’t add up, how is a reporter a source? Are they trying to say he has sources then passed on the info? That still wouldn’t make him the original source.

This is a hit piece, he must be getting too close to the truth.

Tucker is probably the only conservative these people actually know.

Well we knew they would come after Tucker, right?

The Political Propagandists in the MSM have painted a target on Tucker Carlson's back.

Tucker is an established member of the main stream media. It would be shocking if he wasn’t dished inside information from time to time. It would also be shocking if he didn’t send it down the line from time to time. You can’t interview the kind of people he regularly interviews without getting stuff off camera in addition to the on camera information.

I don’t see this as a hit at all. It’s what media people do.

Is the MSM trying to bolster their standing by saying that they get their info from Tucker or discredit Tucker because he supposedly consorts with them?

Kinda wished low t would have stayed out of my op but not surprised by the response.

If there is fish it certainly would be easy to show the text messages etc he sent and I’d the other sources.

Otherwise it’s just typical liberal lies

He's a source for other media outlets?

Even if true, why should I be concerned about that?

If they had these, they'd have produced them by now. My guess is Tuck dares them to publish what they have...
