Ex-Fox Personality Wants To Throw Current Fox Personalities In Jail

Former Fox News chief political correspondent Carl Cameron joined MSNBC Deadline: White House on Tuesday to discuss the aftermath of the mass shooting in Buffalo by a white supremacist. According to Cameron, it is time to consider throwing certain, current Fox personalities in jail.

Host Nicolle Wallace struggled with reconciling the fact that the shooter alone is responsible for his actions and her dislike of Tucker Carlson, “Carl Cameron, I want to start with you and I want to ask you what goes on? I mean, obviously a mass shooter is responsible for the violence and the heinous acts that the mass shooter committed. It is also true that the ideology left in the mass shooter’s screed mirrors the ideology championed by Tucker Carlson. What happens at Fox News when something like this happens?”

Cameron claimed such questions are why he left, “I can’t even imagine. That’s partly why I ended up getting out of there.”

Taking things way beyond eleven, Cameron then suggested some people on Fox, presumably including Carlson, need to go to jail:

It’s, it really is kind of horrible to think that journalists with national and international capacity are putting together this type of nonsense. I think the president did a great job. I wish he had done a lot of this a lot sooner, and we need a lot more from the left and the middle, and we got to watch out because the Republicans have become the purveyors of misinformation, and when our two-party system is broken like that, democracy is seriously in trouble. The president acknowledged that. It’s time to actually start doing things and maybe taking some names and putting people in jail. 

Thankfully for Fox, the First Amendment will protect them from people like Cameron. Luckily, for MSNBC that same First Amendment also protects them from people like Cameron who want to be the final arbiters of what is and is not misinformation.

NICOLLE WALLACE: Carl Cameron, I want to start with you and I want to ask you what goes on? I mean, obviously a mass shooter is responsible for the violence and the heinous acts that the mass shooter committed. It is also true that the ideology left in the mass shooter’s screed mirrors the ideology championed by Tucker Carlson. What happens at Fox News when something like this happens? 

CARL CAMERON: I can’t even imagine. That’s partly why I ended up getting out of there. 

WALLACE: Yeah.

CAMERON: It’s, it really is kind of horrible to think that journalists with national and international capacity are putting together this type of nonsense. I think the president did a great job. I wish he had done a lot of this a lot sooner, and we need a lot more from the left and the middle, and we got to watch out because the Republicans have become the purveyors of misinformation, and when our two-party system is broken like that, democracy is seriously in trouble. The president acknowledged that. It’s time to actually start doing things and maybe taking some names and putting people in jail.
