"Patriot Purge," a series of three episodes, will be streamed on Fox Nation beginning Monday.

Tucker Carlson was criticized for releasing the trailer earlier in the week.

CNN anchor Jim Acosta stated that Carlson incites more right-wing violence within the US.

CNN anchor Jim Acosta criticised Fox News and Tucker Carlson's documentary "Patriot Purge" on January 6. He called it a "propaganda flick", "Proud Boy porn" and a reference to an alt-right, white nationist hate group.

Acosta stated that Tucker Carlson, the inciting agent of right-wing violence in America, is why federal investigators and millions are afraid of right-wing violence in the country.

Carlson was the target of immediate criticism after he released a trailer for his upcoming series. It implores that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is behind the January 6th riot. Geraldo Rivera, a Fox News colleague, criticized Carlson, saying in a tweet that the conspiracy theory of a "false flag", which was posited in the documentary, is "bullshit."

The series will air on Fox Nation's streaming service starting Monday. Acosta stated that the Murdoch family oversees Fox News and other media outlets. This is while American democracy is being set on fire.

Acosta stated that Tucker Carlson and the Murdochs, their primetime pyromaniacs, seem determined to drag this country into civil war.
