CNN Anchor Slams Tucker Carlson's Capitol Riots Revisionism: This Is 'Fantasy Island'
CNN anchor John Berman on Tuesday morning blasted Tucker Carlson for attempting to suppress the memory of what happened during the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection, mockingly calling the far-right Fox News hosts show Fantasy Island.
Carlson, who has long played down the seditious riot as nothing more than political protest that got out of hand, took his revisionism a step further on Monday: He claimed its a lie that white supremacists were at all involved in the violence and said there was no evidence of an armed insurrection at the Capitol.
With the Senate holding hearings on the security breakdown during the deadly riot, Berman brought on Punchbowl News founder Anna Palmer and columnist Errol Louis to discuss the latest push by Republicans to memory-hole the events of Jan. 6.
I dont think this could come at a more important time because you are seeing a wave of revisionism among some Republican senators like Ron Johnson, who says it wasnt an armed insurrection, the New Day co-host noted, referencing Johnsons recent downplaying of the riot.
