Fox News host Tucker Carlson said on Monday night that according to "highly informed" sources, CNN hosts have been directed to discredit former Democratic National Committee Chairman Donna Brazile over claims made about the 2016 primary in her new book, 'Hacks.'



"According to highly informed sources we spoke to — highly informed — top management at CNN directed its employees to undermine Brazile’s credibility," Carlson said on his show. "Anchors and producers were vocally offended, many of them, by her attacks on their friends, the Clintons. If you've been watching that channel, you may have noticed CNN’s anchors suggesting that Donna Brazile cannot be trusted, precisely because she took part in efforts to break the primaries for Clinton."



Brazile resigned from her role as a CNN contributor after WikiLeaks revealed that she had used the position to get access to a debate question for the Clinton campaign.
