When he wants to be, Tucker Carlson can be one of the most engaging, difficult, and critical interviewers in all of news media. But since taking his show independent, Carlson has repeatedly published, to audiences of tens of millions of trusting viewers, weak interviews that uncritically parrot…
“Public records and court filings reveal that he has a 27-year criminal record, with a specialty in crimes involving deceit. The record includes forgery charges in two states, one of which drew Sinclair a 16-year jail sentence. The Pueblo County, Colo., Sheriff’s Office also has an outstanding warrant for Sinclair’s arrest for forging an acquaintance’s signature and stealing her tax refunds.”
These details are all omitted from Tucker Carlson’s more than 40-minute interview with Sinclair. The host briefly mentions Sinclair’s criminal history but downplays it and does not inform his viewers that this history specifically involves multiple crimes of fraud and deceit. You’d think that background might be relevant to assessing the credibility of an individual’s allegations against a major political figure.
So, we have an old, implausible allegation against a controversial political figure made by someone with a criminal background in fraud that is bolstered by no meaningful evidence or corroboration.
