The “Tucker Twitter files,” released Thursday by journalist Paul D. Thacker, show that in June 2021, Twitter sought to censor Fox News commentator Tucker Carlson after he published an op-ed stating that the COVID-19 vaccines are dangerous for children. Carlson cited information found on the World Health Organization’s (WHO) website — information the WHO “stealth-edited” after Carlson’s commentary.

The files released Thursday also reveal that Twitter executives held internal debates over how best to censor the content in Carlson’s op-ed — an initiative that was led by a former press secretary for Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.).

Despite being “controversial and polarizing,” Thacker said, Carlson was “One of the few Americans to challenge the official framework of acceptable narratives” and, as such, was “hated by the mainstream reporters for daring to throw darts at liberal pieties.”
