Tucker Carlson Fired Over AutoAdmit Scandal and Fox News Fallout

Neff echoed sentiments from other AutoAdmit commenters who believed Michael Brown’s death at the hands of a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, was justified, even stating that “the violent criminals are even MORE heroic to Black peopel.” He expressed harsh views on the four members of Congress known as the Squad—Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, and Rashida Tlaib—claiming they aim to “MAKE YOUR COUNTRY A DUMPING GROUND FOR PEOPLE FROM THIRD WORLD SHITHOLES.” in another post, Neff predicted a drastic shift if Democrats gained power, warning that “once democrats have the majorities to go full F**K WHITEY, things are going to get really wacky really quickly.” He also expressed a pessimistic view on western societies, suggesting “there’s a suicidal impulse to Western peoples that honestly feels almost biological in origin.”

In July 2020, CNN uncovered Neff’s AutoAdmit posts, leading to his resignation from Fox News. He later maintained, while working as a producer on Charlie Kirk’s podcast, that he was “the least racist person on AutoAdmit,” pointing out that he “never posted the N-word,” unlike many other users. tucker Carlson claimed he was unaware of the posts, stating, “We don’t endorse those words. They have no connection to this show.” However, Neff’s AutoAdmit activity wasn’t entirely unkown to his colleagues.While at the Daily Caller, Neff openly discussed his posts.
