Fox Newsโ€™ Tucker Carlson littered the airwaves with a compiled list of celebrities in an attempt to seemingly โ€œoutโ€ them for helping โ€œrioters and looters.โ€

After naming off companies that have donated to Black Lives Matter, he indicates that โ€œit isnโ€™t just major corporations that are fueling all of thisโ€”celebrities are too, by paying to get violent rioters out of jail.โ€ He then begins naming some of the famous folks who have given money to help bail out protesters, convincing himself that this is a bad thing.

In the clip, Carson can be heard saying: โ€œRapper Lil Nas X urged his 4.7 million Twitter followers to donate to bail groups in Chicago, New York and Philadelphia and elsewhere.

โ€œImagine if he had used those followers instead to help small businesses destroyed by the riots he helped incite.โ€

Lil Nas replied to the tweet of the clip, calling out Fox News for โ€œlyingโ€ on national television.

He wrote: โ€œThis man just lied and told millions of people on national television that I was inciting riots. You canโ€™t make this up.โ€

Seth Rogen also replied to the clip, writing: โ€œI think when white supremacists are bothered by your actions, thatโ€™s probably a good thing.โ€

In a later tweet he penned: โ€œFuck this pasty asshole.โ€

He was joined in this sentiment by Halsey and Kelani.
