Tucker Carlson blindsides Sam Altman with theory about OpenAI staffer's 'murder'

The mom of the allegedly murdered employee spoke to Tucker Carlson months ago:

> Speaking on The Tucker Carlson Show on Wednesday, Balaji's mother, Poornima Ramarao, revealed the results of a private investigation she hired to look into her son's death, claiming that authorities "just ignored everything that showed murder and picked up everything that showed suicide."

> Ramarao said the private autopsy she had conducted by Dr. Joseph Cohen indicated that the bullet wound in Balaji's head had missed the brain and another injury on the other side of the head indicated signs of a struggle, implying the presence of an attacker.

I’m curious if you’ll see more of this as the freshness of tech’s rightward turn wears off and the two sides realize they have very little in common. Money only buys you so much good will.

Sounds like Carlson knows (or claims to) a great deal about the crime scene. Some of that contradicting the police report.

How low does an interviewer need to go on something like this, before the interviewee's best countermove is to say "If that's actually true, then it sounds like he was murdered. By you"?

  • Ah yes, projection. The device of the innocent. All he had to do was say, "I will be the first to call for a thorough independent investigation of what was obviously suspicious circumstances." I'll let you watch the interview to see what he actually said and how he behaved.

I care little for what Tucker Carlson has to say, and I care even less about the Daily Mail’s gossipy reporting of it, no matter how much the topic might tickle my ears. I’m disappointed this received even six upvotes.
