Last night, CNN’s Oliver Darcy was doing what he does best: watching Fox News. So, naturally, he was there for this shocking quote from Tucker Carlson:
"We spent all day trying to locate the famous QAnon, which in the end we learned is not even a website. If it's out there, we could not find it" — Tucker Carlson
— Oliver Darcy (@oliverdarcy) February 24, 2021
Media Matters Deputy Rapid Response Director Andrew Lawrence just had to hear it for himself:
Tucker Carlson says he couldn't find any evidence that the Qanon conspiracy theory even exists, like theres nothing out there proving that it's a thing pic.twitter.com/tqeYm73pAb

Can you believe that? Tucker Carlson’s just out there saying that QAnon isn’t even a thing! What a tool, right?
Tucker could've just asked his colleagues… Fox's website has a QAnon explainer… https://t.co/0RytFtI6MR https://t.co/2ekpjQGVt2

Great point, CNN’s Brian Stelter!
But enough about Oliver Darcy, Brian Stelter, and yourself, Andrew.
Watch the whole video you lying POS. https://t.co/MP8btSF0us

You really misunderstood that segment. Which, ironically, explains that segment. https://t.co/xJvkh26BKl

Anyone else want to join in on this idiot’s tweet? ? What he doesn’t realize, Tucker is making fun of Stelter & Darcy, right under their own nose. They. Don’t. Get. It. ??? https://t.co/VjpxvjY6Aj

Darcy and Stelter are such hacks running with this totally bogus Media Matters framing. Watch the full clip and you can see he's not saying the conspiracy theory doesn't exist. He's mocking you clowns.https://t.co/Ihe7UTNAop pic.twitter.com/Ej6opOrUdu

Well, to be fair, clowns like Oliver Darcy and Brian Stelter have zero self-awareness. Still, though, just because they don’t realize they’re the ones being mocked doesn’t mean they don’t absolutely deserve to be mocked — and deserve to get called out for their flaming hackery.
and @brianstelter still pushing this BS even when tagged with the clip. Hey @AaronBlake, congrats on pushing fake news off a single sentence from hack @oliverdarcy pic.twitter.com/aeQYrwTyah

Blake’s tweet is gone now. Maybe he, at least, has a modicum of shame.
Clearly Oliver Darcy and Brian Stelter have none.
CNN is out of their mindshttps://t.co/pRSlXwRpju
