Hold on to your seats, folks! A federal prosecutor is investigating the alleged hack of internal Fox News video footage of former host Tucker Carlson. Clips have surfaced on Vice and watchdog group Media Matters for America, and the investigation is linked to a recent FBI search of the home of media consultant Tim Burke. Burke, who formerly worked for Deadspin and The Daily Beast, is married to Tampa Bay City Councilwoman Lynn Hurtak. The investigation concerns allegations of unauthorized computer access, interception of wire, oral or electronic communication, conspiracy, and other federal statutes. As of yet, no one has been accused of wrongdoing or charged in the case. But the plot thickens! Carlson has announced that he will be bringing his show to Twitter, and his attorney claims that the network breached his Fox News contract. Freeman also suggested that the network is behind the leak of Carlson’s private communications. Stay tuned for more updates on this juicy story!
