Tucker Carlson, the former Fox News anchor, was recently the subject of a prank orchestrated by British YouTubers Josh and Archie. The duo managed to secure an interview with Carlson by posing as a whistleblower from Kensington Palace, claiming to have been involved in the editing of an infamous Mother's Day photo of Kate Middleton. Carlson, believing he had secured a major exclusive, was duped into discussing the "Bullsh*t" claim on his show. The pranksters went as far as presenting fake documents to support their claim, with Carlson attempting to verify their identity before the interview, stating, "We’ve done our best to verify that your identity is what you say it is. You’re not a fake [Alexei] Navalny or doing a prank." This incident has sparked a wide range of reactions online, highlighting the ease with which the prank was executed.
