For the past couple of weeks, Fox News host Tucker Carlson has been engaged in a verbal war of sorts with the US Intelligence Community (IC). First, Carlson alleged that he had received a tip from an IC whistleblower telling him his text messages were being read and, as shown of bona fides, told Carlson what was on one or more of those messages, see Tucker Carlson’s Spying Claim Matches What We Know About an out of Control Intelligence Community. Then, the National Security Agency (NSA) responded in the most unconvincing manner you can imagine; in fact, the denial sounded oddly like an admission of guilt that was relying on legalese to avoid admitting the truth, see The NSA Response to Tucker Carlson’s Allegations Shows They Are Hiding Something.
