said, you know, give this to the media by the democrat nominee, peddled to the f.b.i. and it was all a lie. look at this, this is jake sullivan in 2016, if his name sounds familiar, it should. he s national security advisor now. he says this, this could be the most direct link between donald trump and moscow. computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the trump organization to a russia-based think. he s a russia national security advisor now and gets to move on with life. joey: he later tweeted one of those tabloid articles that a baby was born with fins and gills and said this could be the latest and most important thing that we can see in genetic modification. so that s what this is akin to, my point for bringing that up. listen, the illegality of it, there s lawyers here. i m not one, that can talk about it. from my understanding is sussman is really on trial for, perhaps, lying to the f.b.i. it s not necessarily illegal for hillary clinton s campaign to
crime or violence, often plucked from local news sites and turbocharge by the channels vast digital news operation. talk to me about the mechanics of this, angela. how has fox caton environment, an ecosystem, or something like replacement theory is not just embrace but peddled. yeah, i mean they really are the engine that drives the feedback loop. and that loop is speeding up faster and faster and faster. and the way it sort of works is, the producers mine parts as social media, in particular, the chants and other message board communities which has been well documented. the same committees the buffalo shooters were on. for these anecdotes or examples. they put it into the fox news ecosystem on prime time. fox s so-called news programs covered the next day. they cover a tucker carlson segment as of was news, so gets it more into the legitimate side of fox news, and they do more reporting around it. and then a hammer away at those
you may recall the replacement theory that came from a writer and to initially the fringes on the american right. we did a report debunking it back in october. richard engel reported on the same author in 2020, and other journalists and human rights groups have warned both about this french theory and how it s being peddled. data shows global interest in this hateful conspiracy theory spikes either when mass shooters cite it, which happened with the buffalo suspect as yo see on the screen, or in one other way, which is the highest spike you see on the screen, when tucker carlson promotes it, when he s done over 400 times. he push this is on fox. the company has lost some advertisers over this kind of thing. but carlson remains the most watched host on the whole channel. in fact, the new york times reported that the murdochs give him more leeway than any host in fox s history. they are under more pressure as lawmakers are pressing fox on
not having a conversation about white supremacy, white supremacist harris with the don t exist in a vacuum. yeah, on top of that i remember how almost every muslim leader in the country, around the world would have to come out and condemn every single act of terrorism as if they had somehow spoke on behalf of all these deranged terrorists and yet here we are 24 hours later after the buffalo terrorist attack, domestic white supremacist terrorist attack, and we have not yet heard from every single republican who has peddled in the great replacement theory come out and condemn it, and condemn this act. you need to stutter show, but last point, tucker carson definitely would condemn it monday night at the top of the show. definitely. you have put some money on that my friend? [laughs] more muslims. mehdi, it s good to see you
clinton campaign concocted this trump/russia political scenario, peddled it to the media, tried to get the f.b.i. enticed into investigating it and obviously wanted to go to the public with the idea that the allegations were so serious that the government was investigating them. so that s the context. but durham hasn t charged a big conspiracy to defraud the government. he charged a very narrow false statement. how much do you allow him to prove about the scheme in order to establish he lied to the f.b.i. about whether he was representing bill: the question would be how much evidence will the judge allow durham to present in court? that s right. bill: which may or may not take you to the clinton connection, correct? i think the clinton connection is unavoidable. what the judge seems to be saying at the moment at least is that to the extent that sussman directly participated in meetings with other people who were connected to the
