NSA refutes Tucker Carlson spying allegation
- vixen99 5y agoSemantic point. Irrespective of the merits or demerits of the case, to refute is to provide unassailable evidence (proof) as to the falsity of an allegation. It marks `case closed`. It doesn't mean presenting strong persuasive arguments against a proposition which is what's happened. Carlson may well be lying or subject to some shenanigans within Fox but so may somebody in the FBI, a huge organization.
