I think you can only counter\u201d his influence.Reid and Obeidallah focused their ire on a new special which Carlson produced for Fox News\u2019 streaming platform, Fox Nation, titled \u201cPatriot Purge.\u201d The documentary contends that the Left accuses its critics of terrorism so that it can impose legal sanctions against them.Reid and her guests continued to attack Murdoch as spreading foreign propaganda. \u201cWhat Murdoch has delivered, largely through FOX News in the United States, is exactly what Vladimir Putin wanted to achieve with his disinformation campaigns, turning one part of America against another,\u201d said Reid, apparently unaware that the greatest Russian propaganda charge during the Cold War portrayed the U.S. as a systemically racist nation, much as Reid does. Dana Milbank of The Washington Post struck a more scatological tone, saying, \u201cIf Murdoch takes this once great newspaper any further down the toilet, I think we`re going to call it the Wall Street Urinal.\u201d Obeidallah added zingers by calling Texas \u201can apartheid state\u201d and nicknaming Tucker Carlson \u201cTucker Klansman.\u201dCNN followed suit the rest of the weekend. \u201cThe Murdochs and Tucker Carlson, their primetime pyromaniac, appear to be Hell-bent on dragging this country into a civil war. Jefferson Davis would be proud,\u201d said former White House correspondent Jim Acosta on \u201cCNN Newsroom\u201d on Saturday afternoon.CNN senior media correspondent Brian Stelter again hyperfocused on the Murdoch media dynasty on \u201cReliable Sources\u201d on Sunday morning. \u201cAre the Murdochs trying to be threats to American democracy? Is Rupert Murdoch a threat to American democracy?\u201d Stelter asked guest Bill Carter, who replied Murdoch has \u201calways been a destructive figure.\u201dThe New York Times national political reporter, Astead Herndon, agreed with his fellow panelists that the threat of domestic terrorism from Fox News supporters appeared imminent.\u201cI think it\u2019s a mistake for us to think of January 6 as an isolated event,\u201d he said.The views expressed in this piece are the author\u2019s own and do not necessarily represent those of The Daily Wire.The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
