According to its official summary, Carlson's documentary alleges that "the Biden regime is using the Capitol riots on Jan. 6 to paint Americans as terrorists" and asks "how much of what we're told was a lie?"
Goldberg and Hayes announced their departure in a piece published at The Dispatch, a commentary site they founded. Carlson's documentary, they wrote, was a "collection of incoherent conspiracy-mongering," and at Fox, "the voices of the responsible are being drowned out by the irresponsible."
Goldberg was an editor at conservative magazine National Review from 1998 until 2019.
