9. In other words, Carlson doesn't "reject" the "great replacement" theory. He believes it's a fact. The people who share Carlson's views include white supremacists and neo-Nazis. Better luck next time Lachlan https://t.co/V0W2ARqIft — PolitiTweet.org

8. This was never credible, but last week Carlson just explicitly stated the "great replacement" was a "policy" being implemented by the Biden administration. Carlson said that Biden was trying to replace white people with "more obedient people from far-away countries" — PolitiTweet.org

7. Kind of amazing how Tucker Carlson casually humiliated Fox Corp CEO Lanchan Murdoch When Carlson promoted the white nationalist "replacement" theory in April, Murdoch defended him, claiming that "Carlson decried and rejected replacement theory" https://t.co/V0W2ARqIft — PolitiTweet.org

5. Many of these companies advertise heavily on Fox News - a network dominated by Tucker Carlson - while claiming to be champions of diversity @Indeed, a top 10 advertiser on Fox News, has pledged to "use our global platform to stand against racism" https://t.co/V0W2ARqIft — PolitiTweet.org

4. Here Fox News' top brand advertisers this year. They are all pretending you can separate Tucker Carlson from the rest of Fox News. @LibertyMutual @indeed @USAA @ADT @Applebees @Nutrisystem @progressive https://t.co/V0W2ARqIft — PolitiTweet.org

3. In a 6-month period between November 2020 and May 2021, clips from Carlson's show were featured 134 times on Fox News' other programming Carlson makes dozens of guest appearances throughout the lineup His rants are defended by Fox Corp's CEO https://t.co/V0W2ARqIft — PolitiTweet.org

2. To this point, major advertisers have attempted to thread the needle. They've largely abandoned Tucker's show (because of the racism) but continued to advertise heavily on Fox News Tucker, however, permeates all Fox News' programming https://t.co/V0W2AR96QT — PolitiTweet.org

1. Last week, Tucker Carlson unambiguously promoted the white nationalist "great replacement" conspiracy theory Fox News took Tucker's racist rant and promoted it on its homepage You cannot separate Fox News from Tucker He is the face of the network https://t.co/V0W2ARqIft — PolitiTweet.org

Just a quick reminder that promoting white supremacist conspiracy theories to millions of people does not make you a "champion of free speech." It makes you a racist. — PolitiTweet.org

It makes sense that Trump is encouraging more audits because no matter the result he just claims that he won. His supporters buy it and everyone in the Republican Party seems cool with it. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump claims that the Arizona "audit," which affirmed Biden's victory in the state, actually concluded that he won.… https://t.co/qvDD38bPgM

“The ADL?” Carlson said, laughing. “Fuck them.” — PolitiTweet.org

Claiming the Biden administration was trying “to change the racial mix of the country”, Carlson said: “In political terms, this policy is called ‘the great replacement’, the replacement of legacy Americans with more obedient people from far-away countries" — PolitiTweet.org

"[T]he Anti-Defamation League renewed its call for Tucker Carlson to be fired from Fox News for voicing the racist 'great replacement' theory about immigration" "[T]he primetime host had a pithy response: 'Fuck them.'" https://t.co/FU3GcNh8Yw — PolitiTweet.org

The @USChamber will support members of Congress that voted to overturn the results of the presidential election on January 6 but it won't support members of Congress that want to marginally increase taxes to finance paid leave, action on climate, and an expanded child tax credit — PolitiTweet.org

3. To me, if you are going to cover the corporate press release announcing a promise but not follow up when the corporation BREAKS the promise, that's not journalism. That's PR. I doubt that's what these outlets want to do. But that's the reality of what they are doing. — PolitiTweet.org

@ATT @nytimes @CNN @Variety @dallasnews 2. Now, 9 months later, @ATT has violated its promise The only outlet to cover was my newsletter, Popular Information None of the dozens of publications that covered @ATT's initial announcement have picked up the story This seems screwed up https://t.co/pR3KZnxIsK — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
1. So, in January, when @ATT PROMISED to cut off donations to Republicans who voted to overturn the election, it was covered by virtually every major media outlet. @nytimes @CNN @variety @dallasnews I could go on and on https://t.co/PFfpzotUjy — PolitiTweet.org

This abstraction of the debate by the media serves the interests of corporations and the wealthy. The provisions they are opposing are wildly popular. If you focus about the substance, they lose. — PolitiTweet.org

As is so often the case, the coverage is oriented around the horse race. How will this impact 2022? The reality is that this could have a real impact on people’s lives. It’s not a game. — PolitiTweet.org

The argument here, which I don’t think is well understood, is that America should remain the only developed country without any paid family leave because corporations don’t want to pay a penny more in taxes on corporate profits — PolitiTweet.org

The reconciliation package is a generational opportunity to address climate, the treatment of working families, and tax fairness There is a massive lobbying campaign against it funded by virtually every major American corporation — PolitiTweet.org

Waiting for all the people who say that corporations should “stay out of politics” to call on the US Chamber, funded by dues from nearly every major American corporation, to stop spending millions to tank the reconciliation package — PolitiTweet.org

Corporations like @Google, @Microsoft, @Facebook, and @Amazon, which claim to take climate change seriously are funding these ads designed to defeat legislation that is essential to address the climate crisis — PolitiTweet.org

@patagonia Through the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, most of corporate American is LOBBYING AGAINST this package, calling it "a significant threat to the American economy" You know what's really a threat? CLIMATE CHANGE https://t.co/1FlTUBUNqW — PolitiTweet.org
