Remove Tucker Carlson

The Issue

Fox News commentator Tucker Carlson is well-known for making controversial, inflammatory, and often outright false claims. His comments, however, are becoming increasingly dangerous.

In a recent broadcast, Carlson offered justification for Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17 year old that killed 2 protestors in the name of "protecting property" and "maintaining order".

But Kyle Rittenhouse did not do that. Kyle Rittenhouse used a rifle to murder two people.

To quote Carlson: "How shocked are we that 17 year olds with rifles decided to maintain order when no one else would?"

When a Black man is killed by police, Carlson implies that he's a thug. When a White boy kills two protestors, Carlson implies that he's a patriot and a hero.

This is not a partisan issue. This is not an isolated instance. These comments, as well as others made on recent broadcasts, are exemplary of blatant racism and fascism. This is disgusting and unacceptable. We demand that those who provide ads to Carlson's program withdraw from their agreement with his show and that Tucker Carlson be removed from the air as soon as possible.
