Tucker Carlson Says Good Riddance to Ralph Peters: Him Likening Me to a Nazi Apologist ‘Says it All’
Ralph Peters left Fox News not with a whimper, but with a bang. The now-former Fox analyst scorched the network in a fiery email that made a pretty direct mention of the Fox News primetime line-up.
Without referring to Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham by name, Peters said this:
When prime-time hosts–who have never served our country in any capacity–dismiss facts and empirical reality to launch profoundly dishonest assaults on the FBI, the Justice Department, the courts, the intelligence community (in which I served) and, not least, a model public servant and genuine war hero such as Robert Mueller–all the while scaremongering with lurid warnings of “deep-state” machinations– I cannot be part of the same organization, even at a remove. To me, Fox News is now wittingly harming our system of government for profit.
The most obvious example of what he might possibly be talking about is the time he fought with Tucker Carlson over Russia and compared him to a Nazi sympathizer.
Well, Carlson would like you to know that he won’t miss Peters.
In a tweet this afternoon, Carlson sent what was a basically a “don’t let the door hit you on the way out” tweet:
Ralph Peters has been in the news lately. Check out our interview with him from last summer. It says it all. #Tucker @FoxNews pic.twitter.com/gUhuQI3WDi
