Tucker Carlson Home Raided By Fox News; Network Confiscated Home Studio They Built For Former Host

Tucker Carlson is now taking his show to Twitter. However, it looks like Fox News wanted to get their equipment back so they raided his home in Maine. They reportedly took "everything" but did not dismantle his studio.

The disgraced former Fox News host had a studio that they built for him inside his Maine home and even placed some expensive equipment there. They wanted the gear back, leading to a Fox News crew dismantling the equipment to take it back.

Patrick Feeney, who was managing to rebuild the studio as Carlson prepares for his new Twitter program, told the Daily Mail, "Fox came in last week and got all their sh*t out of there." He added, "They took the set and everything, all the equipment, the chairs, the desk, the fake walls, everything."

The raid happened as Carlson, who was fired shortly after Fox News was forced to pay Dominion Voting Systems over $700 million for spreading false information about the 2020 elections, was in preparation for his new program that he is reportedly launching on Twitter.

Fox News Clarifies Information Regarding Raid on Tucker Carlson's Home

After news of the raid on Tucker Carlson's home in Maine surfaced, a source with knowledge of the situation spoke with The Guardian and told the outlet, "We removed the equipment (which we own) after building a custom studio at our expense - we did not tear down the studio."

After Fox News took all its equipment from the Carlson home, the former host was spotted in Woodstock, Maine, aiding in the reconstruction of his new studio. He was reportedly leading a 3-man crew in the construction project.

Patrick Feeney, who managed the operation, stated that "There's no hardware in place at all" and that there was no "infrastructure for a TV studio for a long time."

Feeney added, "We just came to clean it up and get it looking like something again." He also stated that there was no "imminent venture" for Carlson in his Maine home yet, but they were just readying it just in case something does happen. For now, he said that "There's nothing we're doing other than cleaning the place up, shoring up the walls, making it look good again."

Possible 'Hacking' About 'Embarrassing Tucker Carlson Videos' At Fox News Leads To a Different Raid

Speaking of Tucker Carlson and raids, the FBI raided Tampa journalist Tim Burke's home earlier this month, and this was related to the criminal investigation into possible "hacking" at Fox News. According to The Daily Beast, the hacking resulted in Vice News and Media Matters for America getting their hands on "embarrassing videos of Tucker Carlson."

Vice obtained outtakes of Carlson's interview with Kanye West that were edited out. It contained the rapper's even more controversial antisemitic rants. As for Media Matters, it showed clips where the hist asked Piers Morgan about sexual techniques, trashing Fox Nation, and his creepy comments about "premenopausal" fans.

The FBI raid reportedly seized electronic devices from Tampa journalist Tim Burke's home and turned the house "upside down." It reportedly happened during the early hours of May 8, with the FBI executing a search warrant. It was reported that both Vice News and Media Matters are not accused of any wrongdoing.
