it s almost like he s people were just these documents exposed them as basically actors and they were paid actors going on air and lavishing praise donald trump, but behind the scenes it s clear they don t believe any of it. and how that played out, it could land them in serious trouble at the network. there was also this latest issue that fox news needs to contend with involving tucker carlson and kevin mccarthy, the 40,000 hours of security footage that mccarthy gave to tucker carlson and how the show cherry picked it for january 6th. you spoke with one republican who was not happy with how fox news and tucker carlson portrayed january 6th. what does that mean to you and what does this mean for kevin mckarthy? this is a divide in the republican party about donald trump s role, january 6th and
