<p>Former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey called out CNN&#8217;s Brian Stelter and a columnist for The Washington Post on Monday over a tweet that took aim at Fox News host Tucker Carlson.</p>
<p>Dorsey referenced a tweet from Stelter that stated: &#8220;Tucker Carlson is always selling the same thing, @pbump says: &#8216;He&#8217;s selling doubt&#8230;'&#8221;</p>
<p>The column, from left-wing Washington Post columnist Philip Bump, highlighted an episode of Carlson&#8217;s new short-form documentary series called &#8220;The End of Men.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dorsey responded to the tweet by asking in a tweet, &#8220;and you all are selling hope?&#8221;</p>
<p>In the column, Bump claims that Carlson&#8217;s video &#8220;is a weird combination of homophobia and homoerotica&#8221; and that Carlson&#8217;s &#8220;ultimate destination is the same: White Americans, particularly older men, are embattled in an increasingly hostile culture and he is giving them the tools to fight back.&#8221;</p>
<p>When a reporter claimed that Dorsey was &#8220;defending&#8221; Tucker Carlson, Dorsey responded, &#8220;Not defending a thing. Holding up a mirror.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">not defending a thing. holding up a mirror</p>
<p>&mdash; jack (@jack) <a href="https://twitter.com/jack/status/1516208883508858881?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 19, 2022</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Dorsey made news over the weekend when he slammed the Twitter’s board of directors as entrepreneur Elon Musk, the world’s richest man tries to take over the company.</p>
<p>Dorsey was responding to the following tweet when he made his remark, “If look into the history of Twitter board, it’s intriguing as I was a witness on its early beginnings, mired in plots and coups, and particularly amongst Twitter’s founding members. I wish if it could be made into a Hollywood thriller one day.”</p>
<p>Dorsey responded, “It’s consistently been the dysfunction of the company.”</p>
<p>Dorsey also <a href="https://twitter.com/jack/status/1515536972995088385">said</a> “big facts” in response to the following statement from venture capitalist Fred Destin: “What I do know for sure is that this old Silicon Valley proverb is grounded in age-old wisdom that still applies today: Good boards don’t create good companies, but a bad board will kill a company every time.”</p>
<p>When later asked if he was allowed to speak like this publicly given the fact that he is still on the company’s board, Dorsey responded, “No.”</p>
<p>Twitter has <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/twitters-poison-pill-plan-to-block-elon-musk-from-buying-the-company-may-not-be-enough-to-stop-him">attempted</a> to stop Musk from taking over the company by adopting a so-called “poison pill” that effectively allows all shareholders, except those trying to buy out the company, to purchase newly offered shares at a discounted price.</p>
<p>Musk would have to purchase the new shares at a higher price, which could end up being too much for him to afford, if he wanted to take over the company. Despite throwing a massive roadblock in Musk’s way, the adoption of the poison pill would not bar Musk from being able to buy the company, it would only make it harder.</p>
<p>Musk <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/musk-reveals-during-ted-talk-that-there-is-a-plan-b-if-twitter-rejects-his-offer-to-buy-the-company">revealed</a> during a TED Talk last week that he had a plan in place if Twitter blocked his attempt to buy the company.</p>
