Thanks @jeremymbarr for giving the dynamics of @TuckerCarlson harassment campaigns against the press, esp women.
My experience is here, as well as those of @TaylorLorenz & @BrandyZadrozn. @FBI take note. Like gamergate, this can tilt into violence fast.

Apologies: @BrandyZadrozny.
I should say Tucker has also been vile to @GrimKim, @chick_in_kiev and @laurenduca.
He'd have been sued if this harassment and intimidation happened in the office, but it happens IN PLAIN SIGHT so he gets a pass. Hm.

I hope Fox has been able to replenish the war chest it emptied for Ailes and O'Reilly. This might get expensive.
PS Tucker has tried to silence @AprilDRyan maybe more than anyone. The fact that she has not kept silent should be an inspiration to all of us.
Since 07, I’ve wanted to help nip one harassment-to-violence campaign in the bud. That year a Ron Paul aide, Stewart Rhodes, sicced a troll army on me. Rhodes more than got away with it; I got blamed. Then he founded Oath Keepers, w/same tactics. Then they attacked the Capitol.
Bc the trolls targeted the comments section of my NYT blog, their IP addresses were visible. If I’d been able to flag the sources & turn over the death threats to the FBI, investigations into the nascent terrorists, the Oath Keepers, could have started 14 years ago.
