But “The View” host Sunny Hostin just isn’t buying that idea, considering “Fox knew” about his racism.In the text, which was written the day after the Jan. 6 insurrection, Carlson wrote about an apparent desire to support a group of Trump supporters, who “surrounded an Antifa kid and started pounding the living s–t out of him.”“Suddenly I found myself rooting for the mob against the man, hoping they’d hit him harder, kill him,” Carlson wrote.
