Ray Epps sued Fox News, saying host-turned-Twitter vlogger Tucker Carlson defamed him. Carlson accused him of being an FBI informant who incited the Capitol riot. According to the lawsuit, Epps and his wife, Robyn Epps, both listened to Fox News push falsehoods about the results of the 2020 election. "The lies that Fox told were heard by Ray and Robyn Epps, loyal Fox viewers and fans of Tucker Carlson and other Fox personalities," the lawsuit says. The conspiracy theory about Epps has been frequently advanced by Tucker Carlson, a Twitter vlogger who was fired by Fox News in April.

Tucker Carlson was kicked off Fox News ahead of a monologue about January 6, per his biographer. Carlson reportedly planned to talk about Ray Epps, who is falsely accused of sparking the insurrection. Epps is the subject of a false conspiracy theory that he's an FBI plant. Carlson has nonetheless repeatedly promoted the conspiracy theory on his show, as have far-right Republican lawmakers including Sen. Ted Cruz and Reps. Matt Gaetz, Thomas Massie, and Marjorie Taylor Greene. Carlson and Fox News are negotiating the terms of Carlson's exit from the network.
