Daily Beast's Justin Baragona accuses Tucker Carlson of adding "googly eyes" to AOC, but he didin't

Daily Beast contributor Justin Baragone accused Fox News host Tucker Carlson of adding "googly eyes" to a photo of socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) as Carlson displayed the same photo as the one above of the low-information congresswoman.

Well the joke is on Baragone. AOC really does have googly eyes and a rather annoying "belchy voice," as I like to describe how she speaks. Neither Tucker nor Balagone mentioned her voice, by the way.

On Wednesday night the liberal conservative news critic and cancel culture cop tweeted out his disapproval on Twitter. “So it appears that Tucker’s producers added ‘googly eyes’ to AOC in this image.”

What a disgusting, sexist and yes, racist thing to say about the darling of the Democrats. In attempting to get Tucker Carlson thrown off the air and canceled, the Daily Beast's bozo inadvertently made fun of AOC's appearance. Now the world knows he thinks the congress cretin has weird eyeballs.

It turns out the 2018 photo of the author of the $93 trillion Green New Deal was authentic.

It took Baragona about three hours to admit his error. He quickly deleted his inflammatory tweet and while he didn't apologize to Carlson, he did come clean as to his mistake, which is a lot more than most liberals who unintentionally screw up. 

Baragona tweeted:

Taking down this tweet as the image of AOC has been out there since at least May 2018.

He followed up with joking about his screwup, which often occurs when liberals and even some conservatives post before they verify. Baragona admitted he deserved the ribbing he got for making a false accusation about Carlson, but the left has been trying to cancel Tucker and Fox News since its inception. They cannot tolerate a different point of view.

“Word of advice — if you don’t want to be IT, make sure you don’t send out factually inaccurate tweets that can be easily verified and debunked,” he wrote.
