A group of news organizations ask Speaker McCarthy to share thousands of hours of security footage from Jan. 6 after Fox News host Tucker Carlson said this week that he has been given access to about 44,000 hours of video from the attack on the Capitol.
"We understand that, in your capacity as Speaker of the House of Representatives, you recently provided the Tucker Carlson Tonight television program with access to certain Congressional records — specifically, previously unavailable video footage from the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021," wrote Laura Handman, a lawyer representing the media outlets."We write to request that the News Organizations be granted access to these materials.
"There is no basis for further delaying granting this access — to these News Organizations or any other media outlets that make similar requests," Handman said.
