CNN’s Brianna Keilar went on a tear trashing Fox News’ Tucker Carlson on Friday, calling him a “propagandist” and a “liar” after he mocked her coverage of the violent storming of the U.S. Capitol Building, according to Mediaite.
Carlson mocked Keilar for calling it an insurrection and said it wasn’t one — though during his dunk on CNN he actually conceded that “the president recklessly encouraged it.”
Keilar fired back and said what happened absolutely qualifies as an insurrection and mockingly said, “Since this guy pretends not to understand words… let’s use pictures.” She showed some of the most disturbing images of the violent mobs who tried to intimidate members of Congress, even a photo of one man with zip ties.
Carlson responded by laughing at her and accusing CNN of trying to “force Fox News Channel off the air.”

Carlson railed against CNN and said they’re “calling for censorship” to ban a competitor, before doing an extended bit mocking Brian Stelter and Jeff Zucker as Dr. Evil and Mini-Me.
He went on to go after Keilar, mocking Keilar over her background and saying, “Not everyone takes her seriously.”
He laughed as he played parts of Keilar’s segment and mocked her for saying the violent storming of the Capitol building to intimidate lawmakers and the vice president of the United States while they were tallying up the election results was an insurrection.
