Actor and "Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane tweeted Saturday that Fox News host Tucker Carlson's media attack Thursday after the Justice Department's inspector general released its report on the Hillary Clinton probe "makes me embarrassed to work for this company."
"In other words, don’t think critically, don’t consult multiple news sources, and in general, don’t use your brain," MacFarlane said in his tweet. "Just blindly obey Fox News."
"Family Guy" has been on Fox since it premiered in 1998.
In his opening commentary Thursday, Carlson bashed other TV news outlets for their coverage of Inspector General Michael Horowitz's report, which said former FBI Director James Comey was "insubordinate" in handling the Clinton private email probe.
"Keep this in mind," Carlson said, "if you looking to understand what's actually happening in this country, always assume the opposite of what they are telling you on the big news stations.
"And that's certainly the case here," he continued. "They are lying.
"In fact, today's IG report is a virtual catalog of political bias and abuse of power."
