Casualties Of Carlson Come For Revenge
Ray Epps is a 60-something former Marine who lives in the mountains, loves Donald Trump and who attended the “Stop the Steal” rally on Jan. 6 to seek solidarity with those who believed the lies Trump, Fox News and others were spreading about a stolen election.
With the help of Trump allies who were looking for anyone and anything to blame for the violent attack on the Capitol besides Trump, Epps became the MAGA crowd’s number one scapegoat for conspiracy theories about the Deep State being behind the insurrection. And Carlson brought much of the agent-provocateur madness to a national audience with segments about the attack that painted Epps as some sort of undercover agent who riled up the masses and encouraged innocent Trump supporters to storm the Capitol.
The footage of Epps, combined with his military background and the fact that he was never charged for his actions on Jan. 6 were enough to feed the Carlson fever swamps for months on end. As The Washington Post noted, Epps’ name has been mentioned on Fox News more than 160 times in the past two years. And now, Epps is demanding an apology.
Epps’ lawyer sent a letter to Carlson on Thursday, demanding a retraction of the false statements the Fox News host has made about Epps being an undercover operative and requesting a “formal on-air apology for the lies.”
Casualties Of Carlson Come For Revenge
Tucker, apologize for his lies? Get serious. We're talking about a professional propagandist who once he was exposed as a hypocritical liar by way of the discover material released to the public from the Dominion case, doubled down on his lies about 1/6. Doing so by showing some of the video material given to him by the leader of the Crazy, K. McCarthy, and claiming 1/6 was a mostly peaceful protest.
And this is who Epps thinks is going to apologize for assassinating his character? Ray thinks Tucker is going to go on air and admit to Faux's biz model..........lying to its audience. Call me skeptical.
