"For the NSA to unmask Tucker Carlson or any journalist attempting to secure a newsworthy interview is entirely unacceptable and raises serious questions about their activities as well as their original denial, which was wildly misleading," Fox News said in a statement to The Record.

Carlson initially accused the NSA of spying on him during a June 28 segment of his show, when he said that a source from inside the federal government tipped him off to the spying. Carlson confirmed that the spying was taking place, he said, when the source repeated information about a story Carlson was working on that could have only been gathered from the Fox News host's private texts and emails.

The NSA denied that Carlson was the target of intelligence-seeking operations. Carlson later claimed that the NSA had leaked contents of his private communications to journalists in order to try and take his show off the air.

This shit is getting way out of hand.

By virtue of the fact that Tucker was email Putin intermediaries, nobody should be surprised that the emails got the attention of the NSA.  Whether or not you agree with the existence of the NSA, monitoring communication between the US and foreign enemies is what they exist to do.

I want to know why Tucker's name was unmasked, if it's true that he was only seeking an interview.

So you're OK with our Govt spying on Americans? Why am I not surprised you'd give up Freedom for what you perceive as safety.

You're far more transparent than you think.

Relying on common sense, which is highly impacted by biases, is how one gets to the point of believing that the NSA actually gives a shit about Tucker Carlson's TV show and is trying to shut it down.

Where did I make such a ludicrous claim?
The fact that our own govt is spying on American citizens should make you stop defending this practice and wake the fuck up!
Your need to attack Tucker instead of the NSA speaks volumes in your disgust of American principles!

Think about it!!!

Apparently it may not have been related to TC trying to get an interview:

Instead, the nation's top electronic spy agency found that Carlson was mentioned in communications between third parties and his name was subsequently revealed through "unmasking," a process in which relevant government officials can request the identities of American citizens in intelligence reports to be divulged provided there is an official reason, such as helping them make sense of the intelligence documents they are reviewing.

The NSA obscures the names of Americans mentioned in its finished products in an effort to protect their privacy.

The sources declined to comment on who mentioned Carlson in their communications.

How did the NSA know Tucker had emailed Putin's people for an interview......?

You're really not good at this are you......

They may not have. Tucker said that he had been emailing people to get an interview.  I never saw that in the news prior to him saying it.
