Add the Washington Post’s Dana Milbank to the growing list of liberals who are deeply concerned about Tucker Carlson being allowed to examine the thousands of hours of video footage from January 6th.
During an appearance on MSNBC with Al Sharpton, Milbank even said that the footage ‘doesn’t belong in the public domain.’
Milbank also suggests that Tucker can ‘edit it and doctor it’ which seems like a rather unfair accusation.

What happened to the Washington Post’s slogan?

2021-2023 WaPo: GIVE US MORE DARKNESS
The WaPo is such a pathetic joke. Bezos needs to change its name to "Pravda on the Potomac."
Robert Workman (@RWcopter) ~ Democracy dies in something something something.
The WaPo is worried about democracy (i.e., mob rule), while most Americans are worried about preserving our Constitutional Republic. Of course, the lickspittles at The WaPo are too stupid to understand the difference - in spite of the fact that it is a BIG difference.
Tom Fitton (@TomFitton) ~ Left media hates transparency (and the First Amendment).
As usual, Glenn Greenwald makes a great point about this.
Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) ~ Dana Milbank works at a paper which flamboyantly adopted this motto when Trump was elected: "Democracy Dies in Darkness."
Here he is arguing against transparency: arguing the public has no business seeing any of the 1/6 footage except what Adam Schiff and Liz Cheney released.
It’s important to note that Michael Steele is there, nodding along. Can you believe this guy used to be the chairman of the RNC?
Yeah, Steele always was (and still is) a piteous pussy. He even makes Mitt Romney appear manly.
Tom Elliott (@tomselliott) ~ Former RNC chairman @MichaelSteele: "I couldn’t agree with Dana more. This is reckless. It is irresponsible, incomprehensible.”
Al Mancini (@Anthraxx187) ~ Michael Steele, on the left, was the Chairman of the RNC. 🤣
People want transparency.
bbstacker (@CrankitLoud) ~ Democrat operative ... The left is in a panic, I wonder why? What is hidden in all that footage that they can’t stand being released.
We need to see everything ! Including all the footage Nancy’s daughter and her crew filmed!
JD Breen (@realjdbreen) ~ What “journalist” wouldn’t want to keep as much from the public as possible?
Well, that's just it - The WaPo is a leftist propaganda rag, NOT a journalistic newspaper.
Jan (@JanLange15) ~ So Americans shouldn’t be able to see what actually happened? Why not?
Because true transparency and honesty with the American public would screw with the leftist narrative of the Democrat Party.
Does Dana even hear himself?
Milbank doesn't care ... he's a liar and a fraud.
Utah Conservative (@coninutah) ~ "The public doesn't deserve to know" is a fascinating viewpoint from a ... journalist.
commonsense (@commonsense258 ) ~ When journalists argue that the government should have secrets they probably should stop being journalists.
