With very little Trump fake news to report, CNN is now almost exclusively reporting fake news about what is on Fox. This isn’t helping the networks ratings free-fall but what are they going to do? Report actual news? In one of the sadder examples of this, activist journalist Joe Acosta accused Fox’s Tucker Carlson of being in the KKK.
There is a thing called “white replacement theory” that says the democrats are flooding this country with third-world scumbags, loyal to the party, to eliminate the white majority in America. It’s absolutely true, but liberals say it’s racist. Then again, they say everything is racist.
Tucker Carlson took race out of the white replacement theory and said that it was actually “voter replacement theory” because the democrats are trying to swap out conservative voters for people who will vote for democrats. Again, very true.
Over on CNN, Jim Acosta “reported” on Carlson’s non-racial twist of the theory and determined that it was still super-racist:
The Carlson News Network is fired up again, with a 6-minute segment on Jim Acosta’s show today.
“I’m not sure why he spells Tucker with just one K sometimes,” said Acosta, alluding to the fact that he is associated with the KKK. “He’s just a wackjob, that’s all there is to it.” pic.twitter.com/lbUGFlrI2B

Acosta said Tucker Carson is, “pushing a racist theory that’s been a favorite of white supremacists for years, the replacement theory is one that imagines falsely that white people are being intentionally replaced by third-world immigrants to quote, dilute American voters. And while that is a ridiculous lie, we’re going to play you Tucker Carlson’s remarks so you can fully understand why this is toxic.”
Keep in mind that Acosta is supposed to be a straight-news anchor and not an opinion show host.
After playing a clip in which Carlson says literally says it’s not a racial issue but rather a voting rights question, Acosta came back with this:
“I’m not sure why he spells Tucker with just one ‘K’ sometimes,” said Acosta.
Get it? Acosta is saying that Tucker Carlson is in the KKK or at least a supporter of the white supremacist organization. Did I mention that Acosta is supposed to be a straight-news anchor and not an opinion show host?
Not only is this not news, it’s not clever either. Acosta has as much wit as he does journalistic integrity and that’s to say “none.”
Acosta went on to say that Carlson was, “so bizarre” and “He’s just a whack-job and that’s all there is to it.” But that wasn’t all there is to it because Acosta also accused Carlson of inciting mass shootings.
During Trump’s presidency, Jim Acosta was CNN’s White House correspondent, who constantly made an ass of himself with activist confrontational questions and shameless self-promoting grandstanding. With Joe Biden in office, the fake news network moved Acosta into the newsroom because it would expose the liberal double-standard when Acosta failed to throw tempertantrums with the Biden administration.
The problem with this plan is that Acosta is a one-trick pony and with Trump out of the picture, he doesn’t know what to do with himself. Apparently he’s decided Tucker Carlson is the new boogeyman but that isn’t generating the attention Acosta so desperately needs.
