"It’s part of Fox News’s opinion coverage, which: fine," Bump adds. "But it’s opinion coverage in which Carlson makes assertions of fact that often collapse under the scrutiny that he never bothers to pay them. The 'tenor' of the show, they argued, should make clear that Carlson is not 'stating actual facts.' He casts himself directly as revealing a hidden truth, as being the only person willing to 'state actual facts.' But there’s no effort or even any apparent mechanism to ensure that viewers are learning actual facts."
