Yesterday was a rather odd day on Fox. After Chuck Schumer threatened Fox and told Rupert Murdoch to stop Tucker Carlson from releasing any more January 6 videos, it seemed to work. On Monday night, Carlson promised more videos last night and this coming week, yet all we got was an interview with a former Capitol police man. Other shows, like The Five and Jesse Waters Prime Time didn’t even mention the videos at all, and as usual, Brett Baier barely mentioned them, but did so with Democrat talking points. Looks like Murdoch shut down Carlson last night, which shouldn’t surprise you.
Last Thursday night Tucker Carlson told his audience he will release information this week on his team’s analysis of the 42,000 hours of video footage from January 6, 2021 protests.
Tucker’s Monday show was explosive – Tucker Carlson immediately exposed how many of the narratives propagated by the January 6 commission were vicious lies.
Among these lies were Brian Sicknick being murdered by protesters, (Tucker showed he was unharmed), Jacob Chansley aka “The Qanon Shaman” committing sedition (he marched peacefully throughout the Capitol), and Ray Epps being a patriotic whistleblower (he perjured himself before the committee.
Then the US Senate leaders Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell jumped into action. They cannot allow their narratives to be disrupted. Schumer went to the Senate floor and threatened Tucker Carlson and FOX News for daring to show video evidence from that day.
Mitch McConnell sided with Schumer and against the American people.
Tuesday night’s show was tampered down. Tucker Carlson did not release any explosive video. His interview with a Capitol Hill police officer was interesting but subdued. There were no big “reveals” on the show last night.
Now there are suggestions that Rupert Murdoch and the FOX News brass got to Tucker and changed his show plan.
Investigative reporter Sharly Attkisson tweeted out that the show plan was changed.
From what I can gather the plan to air more January 6 tapes on Fox tonight… changed. That must have been some battle behind the scenes. But it should be addressed explicitly on the program rather than just pretending to ignore it. https://t.co/aK3my2aNVt

Newsmax also seemed to ignore the videos. Instead we were given more pro Ukraine propaganda or a Greta Van Susteren interview with warmonger John Bolton.
Looks like Schumer’s threats paid off.
