Intra-cable news tensions boiled over on CNN Friday morning when "New Day" anchor Brianna Keilar put Fox News host Tucker Carlson on blast over his "white rage" segment Thursday night.
At point during his show, Carlson asked: "How do we save this country before we become Rwanda?"
The Fox News star's overall argument was that US Army Gen. Mark Milley's desire to understand the psychological and historical concept of "white rage" - developed by Emory University historian Carol Anderson as an explanation for backlash to Black people gaining social power and influence - equates to promoting pre-Civil War era eugenics, but against white Americans instead of their fellow citizens who are Black.
"That isn't just a dog whistle. It's a white whistle," Keilar said after playing a clip. "He pretends white rage doesn't exist. He is white rage. Don't sell yourself short, pal."
