Tucker Carlson Berates Ted Cruz Over Bellicose Stance on Iran - The New York Times

Podcast host Tucker Carlson has slammed one of his former Fox News colleagues as he continued to laugh at his former employer’s coverage of the Israel-Iran war.

Months after the anchor parted ways from the network Carlson, who recently issued a two-word response to the ceasefire agreement Israel and Iran made, slammed Jennifer Griffin as “the deepest of the deep state” as he continued to hammer at Fox News’ coverage.

The 56-year-old, who was replaced by Jesse Watters on the network, briefly feuded with both President Donald Trump and engaged in a viral showdown with Senator Ted Cruz over America’s support for Israel’s war on the Iranian nuclear program. It comes as advice on what to do in first 10 minutes after nuclear bomb hits emerged.

As Trump announced a ceasefire, Carlson reacted to by tweeting, “Thank God,” and released an episode of his show where he continued to question his ex-employers coverage, zeroing in on Griffin, the network’s Chief National Security Correspondent.

“Jennifer Griffin is, even by the standards of Pentagon employees, she’s not technically an employee of the Pentagon. She’s a shill, obviously, for the deepest of the deep states. But she’s like a parody. She’s like parody. It’s like the whole thing,” Carlson said.

Carlson and fellow former Fox host Clayton Morris then laughed about Griffin’s water-carrying for the “deep state.”

“The crazy thing is Jen Griffin is a liar, but also very liberal, true Trump hater, to the point where I complained about her and I really tried not to complain about other people at Fox when I worked there,” he said.

“She was discrediting the channel, she was such a Trump hater, and it was emotional.” He even approached one of his superiors at the network and suggested Griffin wasn’t helping.

Carlson said he asked, “She’s an idiot. She doesn’t tell the truth. She misleads our viewers. And she’s like a screaming liberal who hates Trump, who our viewers love. So what are we getting out of this?”

The response he got from the network was that “you could not touch Jennifer Griffin.”

Morris noted that Griffin has an office at the Pentagon and suggested she may have bias coverage based on how close to her sources she is.
