The continuing saga of Tucker Carlson’s Adventures in Spying and Lying<\/em> has just dropped its latest episode. In the the previous episode Carlson accused the National Security Agency<\/a><\/strong> of “monitoring our electronic communications and is planning to leak them in an attempt to take this show off the air.”<\/em> Right. Because that’s something that the NSA would devote its scarce time and resources to, rather than the international matters to which its jurisdiction is limited.<\/p>\n

\"Fox<\/p>\n

Carlson’s source for this bombshell revelation was an anonymous “whistleblower”<\/em> who provided no evidence nor explanation for why the NSA would be interested in Carlson. From the outset the NSA denied that Carlson had ever “been an intelligence target of the Agency and the NSA never had any plans to try to take his program off the air.”<\/em><\/p>\n
