"The Uncensored host then told Carlson he did not feel compelled to say derogatory stuff about gay people to make his points. Carlson said he agreed, but that f*ggot had become a magic word that people are not allowed to use anymore. Morgan then asked him if he would use it. F*ggot? I just did, Carlson said, before firing the word off several times. F*ggot, f*ggot, f*ggot. And I'm using it because you're not allowed to."
"The two hit the topic when Carlson brought up a recent Daily Mail report about Elizabeth Kinney, a 34-year-old English woman who was convicted of a homophobic hate crime for calling a male acquaintance a f*ggot in text messages to another friend. Kinney, in those same messages, accused him of assaulting her and included pictures of injuries. The Daily Mail reported Kinney was sentenced to a 12 month community order, ordered to do 72 hours of unpaid work, 10 rehabilitation activity days."
Tucker Carlson questioned Piers Morgan about whether Morgan would say the word 'f*ggot' on camera; Morgan declined and said he would not use derogatory language. Carlson mocked the reason, suggesting arrest or harm concerns, then repeatedly used the slur claiming it had become a prohibited 'magic word.' Carlson cited a Daily Mail report about Elizabeth Kinney, who was convicted of a homophobic hate crime for calling a male acquaintance the slur in texts and accusing him of assault with photos. Kinney received a 12-month community order plus unpaid work and rehabilitation requirements. Morgan acknowledged rising speech-suppression concerns and challenged a cited statistic about UK arrests.
