The Anti-Defamation League is calling for Fox News to fire Tucker Carlson.
"Given his long record of race-baiting, we believe it is time for
Carlson to go," ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt says.
There is zero indication that Fox will take such a step -- or even
reprimand Carlson. But the ADL's call, delivered in a letter to Fox News
Media CEO Suzanne Scott, underscores the extreme and unsettling nature
of Carlson's anti-immigration commentary.
Carlson, the highest-rated host on Fox News, drew condemnations for his
comments about "replacement" on another Fox show Thursday evening.
In the ADL's ensuing letter on Friday, first obtained by CNN Business,
Greenblatt accused Carlson of an "open-ended endorsement of white
supremacist ideology."
Appearing with his friend Mark Steyn, who was filling in at 7 p.m. ET,
Carlson invoked "white replacement theory," a racist conspiracy theory
that imagines White people are being intentionally replaced by immigrants.
"No, no, no," Carlson said, insisting that he wasn't parroting the theory.
But then he said "this is a voting rights question. I have less
political power because they're importing a brand new electorate. Why
should I sit back and take that? The power that I have as an American
guaranteed at birth is one man, one vote, and they're diluting it. No,
they are not allowed to do that. Why are we putting up with this?"
