In recent weeks, Dominion Voting Systems has released a series of court documents revealing how even Fox executives view their own viewers in the most offensive terms. The information revealed is part of Dominion’s lawsuit against Fox for lying about their company and the 2020 election results in an effort to keep their “rowdy” audience happy.
Now, a Washington Post report revealed that a producer for Fox News’ most watched show referred to Trump supporters as inbred “terrorists.”
According to The Post, former Donald Trump White House adviser Raj Shah, who is now at Fox, knew well that Trump lost the 2020 election. Still, he worked in his role to keep the lies alive.
In an exchange with Carlson, Shah explained that Sidney Powell claimed that she had an affidavit that would prove a link between Dominion and Venezuela. Shah called it absurd.
“Might wanna address this, but this stuff is so f*cking insane. Vote rigging to the tune of millions? C’mon,” Shah wrote.
Carlson’s then-producer, Alex Pfeiffer, followed up, implying that reporting the truth would be “offensive” to Fox viewers.
“It is so insane but our viewers believe it so addressing again how her stupid Venezuela affidavit isn’t proof might insult them,” Pfeiffer wrote.
Shah encouraged Carlson to talk about it, saying it was “not new info, not proof” and then to quickly “pivot to being deferential.”
Pfeiffer, who now runs his own public affairs company according to his LinkedIn page, called the wavering “surreal.”
“Like negotiating with terrorists,” he told the other men. “But especially dumb ones. Cousin f*cker types not Saudi royalty.”
Among the other information released last week was that Pfeiffer was trashing Carlson’s opening monologue behind his back as “very mediocre.”
