A spokesperson for Vice News declined to comment. In a statement to CNN on Friday, Media Matters reiterated its decision to report on newsworthy material. The letter also said that the probe is connected to leaked video published by Vice News that showed unaired footage from Carlson’s interview with Kanye West. The Justice Department specifically said in its letter to Fox News that the criminal probe it is conducting is connected to the leaked video published by Media Matters. Media Matters, however, defended publishing the material, saying it was “reporting on newsworthy leaked material,” which is a “cornerstone of journalism.” The organization continued to publish leaked footage of Carlson after the demand from Fox News. “This letter is to advise you that the United States is investigating allegations of criminal wrongdoing involving intentional unauthorized access of a computer … intentional interception and disclosure of wire, oral, or electronic communication … conspiracy … and other federal criminal statutes,” Handberg and Trezevant wrote.Īfter Fox News fired Carlson in April, the progressive watchdog Media Matters published embarrassing behind-the-scenes video of Carlson making crude remarks while joking with staff and denigrating the Fox Nation streaming service.įox News sent a sternly worded cease-and-desist letter to Media Matters in early May, telling the organization that the “unaired footage” it was publishing was “unlawfully obtained.” The letter, which CNN obtained, said that the Justice Department “presently views Fox Corporation as one of the potential victim-witnesses of the alleged criminal conduct under investigation.”
