FBI Taking Tucker Carlson Leak Seriously

Federal Investigators, it’s just been announced, are probing a hack which led to a leak. Apparently, the FBI found something to investigate besides framing Donald Trump for collusion with Russia. It seems that the only reason unaired and unflattering footage of former Fox host Tucker Carlson went public is because it was hacked and leaked to the press.

Leak under investigation

On Friday, May 26, Tampa Bay Times reported that the leak investigation “is tied to a search conducted by the FBI at the home of prominent media consultant and prolific Twitter personality Tim Burke, whose wife is a member of the Tampa City Council.

This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the Twitter Files but stay tuned as the plot develops.

Burke got a call from the Times about the alleged leak and called his lawyer before he called them back. What he said was “after speaking with his lawyer he could not comment.” Good advice.

The Hill is adding that “Assistant U.S. Attorney Jay Trezevant sent a letter to Fox News requesting it preserve information and records related to the investigation for at least 90 days.

Fox News is a party to the leak case and investigators are calling the network “one of the potential victim-witnesses” of alleged “criminal conduct.

They aren’t real sure which but better than being an alleged defendant. Tucker Carlson got the boot recently. He hasn’t said a word about why or what led up to it. Probably under the advice of his lawyers.

Carlson was violated

Even though he’s not on the airwaves, Carlson remains under contract with Fox. He’s also “accused his former employer of violating its contract with him by leaking negative material to the press.

They may have done it, or had some outside help to keep their hands clean. Then again, someone may have done it for them as a favor. A prime suspect is Dominion Voting Systems. Fox wrote them a letter “demanding it conduct an internal probe after media reports have surfaced pertaining to leaked text messages Carlson sent.” In any case, there was a leak and Carlson suffered for it.

According to the Hill, news about the leak investigation coincidentally happens to come along in the wake of a scandal involving “a number of media outlets and watchdogs, including Vice and Media Matters for America.” They’re the ones who published “previously unaired footage of Carlson and his program, some of which showed him making crude and offensive comments about women.

There is a reason why things get edited before they go out on the air. The clips were probably taken out of context just to get Carlson out of the way. He would probably have had a bunch of interesting things to say about the report just released by John Durham, that’s for certain.

Fox did their part publicly by quickly getting a cease-and-desist letter to Media Matters. They were calling the piece “FOXLEAKS,” which really cheesed them off. Officially, it’s not a leak, it’s a hack. The material was stolen.

That was the big defense the media tried to use for not covering Hunter Biden’s laptop until it turned out the Biden emails and images weren’t stolen. They had been abandoned fair and square. Tucker Carlson didn’t “abandon” these tapes.
