Tucker Carlson Accuses New York Times of Trying to 'Injure' His Family
[link:https://www.thedailybeast.com/tucker-carlson-accuses-new-york-times-of-trying-to-injure-his-family?ref=home|
“The Times has not and does not plan to expose any residence of Tucker Carlson’s, which Carlson was aware of before tonight’s broadcast,” the paper said in response.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson ended his first program back from his “long-planned” vacation by accusing The New York Times of trying to “injure” and “inflict pain” on his family by doing a story on where he lives.
Carlson, who is at the center of a firestorm at Fox News over the racist content of his top-rated primetime show, didn’t address any of the current controversies he finds himself mired in on Monday night, including a lawsuit accusing him of sexually harassing a frequent female guest.
The Fox News star, however, did devote the closing segment of the show to preemptively attacking The New York Times for an upcoming article on his family that will supposedly contain his address. Recently, Variety reported that Carlson had sold his tony Washington, D.C., home and appears to have purchased a new property in Florida.
Claiming that he’s “really tried not to talk about myself” during his show’s run because the last thing America needs is “more narcissism,” Carlson said the Times has been working on a story about where he lives. Saying there’s “no conceivable justification for a story like that,” the conservative host then alleged the report was based on personal animosity and a disdain for his politics.
