Tucker Carlson Duped By YouTubers Into Interviewing Fake Kate Middleton Whistleblower

The world of media and journalism can sometimes be a playground for pranksters, as evidenced by the recent incident involving Tucker Carlson and British YouTubers Josh & Archie. In a classic case of deception, the duo managed to dupe Carlson into interviewing a fake whistleblower who claimed to have insider information about the controversial edited photo of Kate Middleton.

 

 

Archie Manners, posing as a former digital content creator for Kensington Palace, spun a tale of being fired for his poor editing skills, which led to the botched alteration of the Mother's Day image. With forged employment documents in hand, including a ludicrous clause about limb amputation, Manners successfully convinced Carlson's team of the legitimacy of his story.

 

Carlson, known for his provocative and controversial style, welcomed Manners onto his show, seemingly oblivious to the ruse. Introducing the guest with an attempt at verification, Carlson proceeded with the interview, during which Manners spun his fabricated tale about editing out a Christmas tree from the background of the photo.

 

The pranksters, however, decided to come clean and reveal their deception, fearing that spreading false information to Carlson's sizable audience would only fuel rumors. Despite the embarrassment of being fooled, Carlson's team seemed satisfied with the interview, indicating their intention to air it.

 

Manners admitted to playing on Carlson's ego by suggesting that mainstream media in the UK wouldn't touch the story, thus giving Carlson the exclusive. This stroke of manipulation further highlights the gullibility of even seasoned journalists when presented with a convincing narrative.

 

Josh & Archie are no strangers to pulling off elaborate pranks, with a track record that includes tricking other notable figures like Carole Baskin and Katie Hopkins. Their ability to exploit vulnerabilities in the media landscape for entertainment purposes showcases the power of satire and the need for vigilance in an age of misinformation.

He's probably got one producer and she spends most of her time fighting off Tucker's "advances", so no time to vett guests.

 

He got pranked by putin a few weeks ago in a russian supermarket.

 

Or maybe it was the first time he's ever been in a supermarket?

A good percentage of Carlson's interviews are fake. The difference with this one is the Carlson was not aware he was being duped. The other ones he's the one duping the MAGA rubes. 

Making loads of money over 2 decades. Your whining earns nothing.

You seem to be inferring that Tucker gets paid for whining, while the rest of us do not.

 

Well done sir.

 

He was fired from his last three jobs, so there's that.

 

And he had to pull himself up by his bootstraps, with help from his father (CEO of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, among many other jobs), and step-mom #2 the Swanson Frozen Food heiress.

Yet he had high ratings. How is your hero Don Lemon going?
