Description

Two marquee Fox News guests have quit. Jonah Goldberg and Steve Hayes resigned in a protest over a special by network host Tucker Carlson. The special's focus is on the January 6th capitol insurrection. "The special—which ran on Fox's subscription streaming service earlier this month and was promoted on Fox News—is presented in the style of an exposé, a hard-hitting piece of investigative journalism," Goldberg and Hayes said. "In reality, it is a collection of incoherent conspiracy-mongering, riddled with factual inaccuracies, half-truths, deceptive imagery, and damning omissions." A Fox News spokesperson declined to comment on the resignations. Carlson said the departures were "great news." https://thedispatch.com/p/why-...
