Tucker Carlson, a Fox News host, voiced his opinion on Monday concerning a 2021 email from a White House employee that requested Facebook to block him from their platform. This was in response to Carlson‘s remarks on the potential issues involving COVID vaccine.

The email suggested that Facebook should take action against him for his views. Carlson felt this was an inappropriate and unjustified action, and he believes that he should have the right to express his opinion without fear of reprisal. He believes that censorship is a slippery slope and should not be tolerated.

“It was never really a secret there were huge problems with the COVID shots. We knew this because the Biden administration’s own VAERS database indicated that from the beginning. A lot of people were being injured, but the media suppressed that news,” Carlson said. “We tried to point it out more than a year ago, not because we have a problem with vaccines or are anti-vaxxers, but because if you force people to take something you probably ought to know what it is and what effects it might have. That’s the most basic right of all, to know what goes into your body, to know something about it. But in trying to say that, we were censored and now we know we were censored by the White House.”

On April 14, 2021, a tweet was posted by Republican Attorney General Jeff Landry of Louisiana which contained an email from White House Director of Digital Strategy Rob Flaherty to an anonymous Facebook employee.

In the email, Flaherty requested for the company to censor a video about vaccines which was posted by Tucker Carlson. This email sparked much controversy and caused the public to question the White House‘s stance on censorship. The tweet by Landry acted as an example of the White House‘s potential attempt to control what is seen and heard by citizens.

“Since we’ve been on the phone – the top post about vaccines today is [T]ucker Carlson saying they don’t work. Yesterday it was Tomi Lehren [sic] saying she won’t take one,” Flaherty wrote to the Facebook employee, according to the email obtained by Landry.

“This is exactly why I want to know what ‘Reduction’ actually looks like – if ‘reduction’ means ‘pumping our most vaccine hesitant audience with [T]ucker Carlson saying it doesn’t work’ then… I’m not sure it’s reduction!,” Flaherty continued in the document released by Landry.

In response, the unidentified Facebook employee reportedly told Flaherty that they were “running this down now,” according to the document.

Landry filed suit against the Biden administration on May 5, claiming that officials colluded with social media companies to suppress debate on the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 presidential election and other issues. A federal court ordered the Biden administration to produce communications between administration officials and the tech companies in July.

“We asked Rob Flaherty to join us and explain, but of course, he is a coward and he won’t. So, we only know this, by the way because of a lawsuit by the attorneys general of Louisiana and Missouri,” Carlson said.

“It’s certainly a violation of First Amendment rights,” Landry told Carlson.

WATCH:

The U.S. Centers For Disease Control (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a joint statement on April 13, 2021, issuing a pause on the use of the J&J COVID-19 vaccine after they identified 6 cases where adult women — out of roughly 7 million individuals who receive the dose — developed severe blood clots.

TuA Facebook employee wrote an email later that day asking Biden administration COVID-19 czar Andrew Slavitt for “any messaging” that the White House might want the company to promote, looping in White House Director of Digital Strategy Rob Flaherty and Director of Strategic Communications and Engagement for the COVID-19 Response Team Courtney Rowe in a follow-up email moments later, according to documents obtained by the New Civil Liberties Alliance (NCLA) and shared with the DCNF.
