Tucker Carlson Files A Million Dollar ‘Defamation Lawsuit Against Whoopi Goldberg

In a high-profile legal battle that has captured national attention, former Fox News host Tucker Carlson has filed a million-dollar defamation lawsuit against actress and television personality Whoopi Goldberg. The lawsuit, filed in a New York court, alleges that Goldberg made false and damaging statements about Carlson during a recent broadcast of the popular talk show The View.

Carlson, who has long been a polarizing figure in the media landscape, claims that Goldberg’s comments were not only untrue but also intended to harm his reputation and career. The lawsuit comes at a time when tensions between political commentators and public figures are increasingly spilling over into the legal arena, reflecting the deepening divisions in American society.

The defamation suit centers on remarks made by Goldberg during a live episode of The View. According to the legal filing, Goldberg allegedly accused Carlson of promoting dangerous conspiracy theories and inciting violence through his commentary on his show, Tucker Carlson Tonight. The lawsuit claims that Goldberg’s statements were “knowingly false” and made with “malicious intent” to damage Carlson’s public image.

Carlson’s legal team argues that Goldberg’s remarks have caused significant harm to his reputation, resulting in a loss of professional opportunities and personal distress. The lawsuit seeks damages of at least one million dollars, as well as a public retraction and apology from Goldberg.
