This isnt a good argument. For Fox News carbon emissions are irrelevant or good or whatever. But since Taylor Swift is saying she cares about the environment and according to her carbon emissions are bad for the environment, it is hypocritical to use a private jet.

The problem Fox News have with Taylor Swift isnt her carbon emissions, it is her hypocrisy.

I mean, no. If she didn't fly on a private jet, they'd find something else to ding her on. Their problem with her is that she's not entirely on their side.

They’re good at finding dings. You know, like, how she’s super old and that’s gross.
