"For the NSA to unmask Tucker Carlson or any journalist attempting to secure a newsworthy interview is entirely unacceptable and raises serious questions about their activities as well as their original denial, which was wildly misleading,” a Fox News spokesman released in a statement about the developments.

So, just so we’re clear, who has gloating rights? Those who refused to take these allegations by Carlson seriously, or those who thought there was something important there, which the NSA did not want to talk about?

@george-k said in Tucker was right.:
Omg anybody who doubted Tucker’s story because Tucker is a sensationalist talking head and because he hadn’t been backed publicly by Fox must be SO embarrassed right now. I feel so sorry for them. Sorry, guys.

I will absolutely retract if and when the NSA is found to have done something inappropriate. Per the link they denied.

IIRC, you were quite vocal about Carlson's employer, Fox News, being silent on the issue.
Seems that, today, they're not.

"entirely unacceptable"I was indeed. So I suppose Fox met criteria and I will partially retract. If it is found that the NSA is lying about their denial, then I will be equally vocal.
I think I am on record of being supportive of Tucker in many cases. When he made a huge claim and Fox wouldn’t back him up I thought he had jumped the shark, and not for the first time.

Carlson also said that the goal of the unmasking was to have him lose his job.
I've not seen any evidence of that.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

And that may be wrong. Probably is wrong.
But what is very interesting us whether it was a mistake made with a routine intercept or something more nefarious?
