Tucker Insists Coverage Concerning Heritage Foundation Taking Big Tech Money Is ‘Accurate’

‘After our segment aired last night, the Heritage Foundation informed us they were upset’

EXCERPT:

CARLSON: “After our segment aired last night, the Heritage Foundation informed us they were very upset by it. They pointed out that at some point last year, long after it became clear that Big Tech was systematically silencing their donors, it was crushing conservatives, they had pledged not to take any more money from Big Tech, so they demanded that we issue a retraction. But not so fast. Actually, our segment was accurate. Public reports show that the Heritage Foundation received more than $1.6 million from Google and Facebook in recent years. We asked Heritage the obvious question, will you return the money? All of it. Well, they didn't say and that, of course, means no. So you have to ask yourself, what exactly did that money buy? Now, we can’t tell you with any precision. We do know, and we don’t think it’s accidental Heritage has been remarkably supportive of Big Tech's agenda in recent years for a conservative foundation, that's a little striking. In 2019, for example, a fellow at Heritage called Diane Katz attacked Senator Josh Hawley’s proposal to rein in internet censorship. She said that systemic bias in Silicon Valley against conservatives 'has not been proven.' Yeah, it's just a myth. In another Heritage analysis, Katz declared that breaking up Big Tech companies 'should be rejected.' And that’s just what they are saying in public.”
