Tucker Carlson forced to apologize to Israel's president for implying he went to Epstein's pedo island

Tucker Carlson apologized for implying that Israel's president visited Jeffrey Epstein's 'pedo island' in a video posted to X on Saturday.

Carlson, the former FOX News host and celebrity journalist, made the suggestion during an interview with US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, which was released on Friday.

In a two-minute video that has received 1.5 million views in less than 24 hours, Carlson said that he received a 'long letter' from Israeli President Isaac Herzog's office, 'denying unequivocally that he had any contact with Epstein, ever.'

'I've gotten a lot of letters like this over the years from people alleging, "oh you got it wrong," but rarely do you get a denial this unequivocal,' Carlson said. 

'So for that reason, we are taking it seriously. There's nothing worse than impugning the reputation of an innocent man,' the journalist continued. 'So I just want to say, clearly, I'm sorry to imply that I knew something I didn't know.'
