Column: Tucker Carlson's ludicrous falsehoods have no place in journalism

If you're an opinion journalist, a cardinal sin is to express a view you really don't believe - or stoop to fabrication.In short, blatantly lie.It's unforgivable - and potentially libelous.I'm referring particularly to so-called journalists who sound off when they don't believe their own words.They lower themselves just to be provocative, feed listeners what they want to ingest and build viewer ratings.
