Mark Levin ripped journalists who gossip secretly to other media outlets on his radio show Thursday \u2015 after fellow Fox News host Tucker Carlson was named as a constant source of leaks in a New York Times report. (Hear the audio below.)<\/strong><\/p>\n Carlson, the far-right prime-time star of the conservative network, reportedly dished negative items to mainstream outlets, including the Times, about Fox News host Sean Hannity and even President Donald Trump, the man Carlson unabashedly championed.<\/p>\n Levin, the host of \u201cLife, Liberty & Levin\u201d on Fox News, did not refer to Carlson by name, but some of his remarks seem to point in Carlson\u2019s direction.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve been in this business almost 20 years,\u201d Levin said on his Westwood One radio show Thursday. \u201cI worked in the Reagan administration for eight years. I never once, not once, leaked anything to a newspaper or media outlet, ever \u2015 let alone The New York Times and their ilk. Certainly not about the people around me. …\u00a0That is a serious misunderstanding of one\u2019s role, of loyalty and character. Let me leave it at that.\u201d<\/p>\n Levin mentioned Thomas Lifson, an \u201cAmerican Thinker\u201d writer who chastised Times reporter Ben Smith\u00a0for exposing Carlson.<\/p>\n \u201cWe know journalists, so many of them, are unethical,\u201d Levin said. \u201cThat\u2019s the point.\u201d<\/p>\n Hannity attacked Smith as well but briefly seemed to go after Carlson on Thursday.<\/p>\n \u201cNow the big news is that some people at Fox apparently don\u2019t like me, and said bad things about me \u2015 gutlessly \u2015 behind my back, according to Ben Smith and members of the media mob,\u201d Hannity said.<\/p>\n Check out Levin\u2019s comments here:<\/p>\n H\/T\u00a0Media Matters<\/p>\nRELATED…<\/h3>\n
