Carlson, known for his controversial views, recently questioned Buttigieg's sexuality on his show, now hosted on X, the social media platform owned by right-wing billionaire Elon Musk.
In a surprising segment, Carlson claimed that one of his show's gay producers told him Buttigieg is “not really gay.” “‘Gays all keep close track of that stuff,'” Carlson said, offering no evidence for his bold assertion.
