Misleading representation of events in paragraph 3

edit

I am new to Wikipedia so I am sorry in advance if I do something wrong.

I believe that a part of the third paragraph of this article is misleading in its representation of the Fox News interview. Specifically, "Carlson responded by calling Durden "hostile and separatist and crazy" and "demented"", which is misleading as in the interview these comments from Carlson were clearly aimed at what Durden was saying, and not her person. I also believe this is an inappropriate adapted quote because a large amount of Carlson's other speech is completely omitted, leaving only the speech that would make the neutral reader believe that Carlson was attacking Durden. This is clearly different from the impression the actual interview would have on such a reader.

Here is a recording of the interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcKQF2hrmeM (the channel is likely biased based on the name, but it is clear that the footage is unedited).

I made this section after seeing a pinned comment by MasterMavrick on this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wa0GFpcQF4c , which showed the misrepresentation.

Please review and change this part of the article to be more representative of the interview.

The source used for the referenced passage in this article is The Washington Post, not the interview itself. Analyzing the interview from your point of view (or the point of view of a YouTube commenter) is original research and not permitted on Wikipedia. Funcrunch (talk) 04:26, 3 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Correction: Presenting a YouTube commenter's view (without additional analysis or editorializing) wouldn't be original research, but now I see the comment you refer to is just a quote from this Wikipedia article. Funcrunch (talk) 08:33, 3 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
