White House Blasts Tucker Carlson’s ‘Disgusting’ Interview
The Biden administration is condemning Tucker Carlson for his two-hour interview with “a Holocaust denier who spread Nazi propaganda,” calling the sit-down “a disgusting and sadistic insult to all Americans.”
Earlier this week, the former Fox News anchor hosted podcaster Darryl Cooper on his show. Cooper suggested in the interview that Nazi Germany’s mass murder of Jews was an accident and that the millions who were systematically murdered had just “ended up dead” at concentration camps because of poor planning.
“Giving a microphone to a Holocaust denier who spreads Nazi propaganda is a disgusting and sadistic insult to all Americans, to the memory of the over 6 million Jews who were genocidally murdered by Adolf Hitler, to the service of the millions of Americans who fought to defeat Nazism, and to every subsequent victim of antisemitism,” White House senior deputy press secretary Andrew Bates said in a statement to CNN.
