Fox Nation, the streaming service operated by Fox News, released the first part of a Tucker Carlson documentary that dubiously claims the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol was escalated with the involvement of the U.S. government. AdvertisementWhile Fox News is known for giving its opinion hosts wide latitude in discussing issues, which sometimes crosses the line into misinformation, the Carlson documentary appears to be particularly egregious. Even the trailer of Carlson’s program, which aired in prime time on Fox News, generated outrage among critics. Fox News did have Carlson promote the documentary series Monday on its morning program “Fox & Friends.”“Patriot Purge” is produced and written by Carlson and the staff that puts together his nightly prime time program. Fox Nation has more than 1 million subscribers who pay a monthly fee for the commercial-free service, according to analyst estimates.
