Because Tucker Carlson’s show so obviously markets white nationalist ideas to its audience, and because white nationalists have been so effusive in their admiration for him and what he is doing, it’s tempting to dismiss this story as “obvious.” https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/10/media/tucker-carlson-writer-blake-neff/index.html
But it’s important in that it establishes a kind of chain of custody. It is not a coincidence that Carlson sounds like a white nationalist forum; we now have receipts of his his head writer drawing his ideas from those places and and putting them into text.
In any case, please do not come at me with the “you’re surprised!!!??” Nonsense, I’ve been writing about this for a while. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2018/08/the-battle-that-erupted-in-charlottesville-is-far-from-over/567167/
