It’s all of them.
That’s just false. It’s bad-faith bothsidesism.
Rupert Murdoch pays Tucker Carlson to scaremonger about immigrants so that the GOP base gets distracted from tax policy.
That’s it. That’s Murdoch’s agenda. That’s the GOP rightwing-donor billionaires agenda.
There is no similar organized agenda in legitimate media, despite decades of rightwing whining that their lies don’t get the same treatment as truths spoken in legitimate media.
The GOP is built on lies and propaganda, funded by billionaires. Good for this historian for saying so.
I'm so old I thought Soros owed a hill of Benjamins to the gov also. Meh. idgaf.

Ice core data!
Look how low we’ve gone.
Notably, in the last two steps Carlson was funded by rightwing billionaires.
Carlson took the Koches’ dirty money at the Daily Caller, and Murdoch’s dirty money at Fox.
The problem is the rightwing billionaires. If Carlson left Fox tomorrow, Murdoch would just fill his spot with another liar spouting scary BS about immigrants to distract the GOP base from the rightwing billionaires screwing them.

Its not exactly a level playing field because Carlson controls the show, has a team behind him, and tactics like being obnoxious or loud are viewed as a "win" by his dumb viewers.
Carlson now has some kind of video up purporting to explain why he didn’t air the segment. Reportedly because of “technical problems”.
