Fox News
Kanye West, now legally known as Ye, an influential American rapper, sat for a lengthy interview with Fox News Channel host Tucker Carlson on Thursday.
West responded that he was privately warned that people wearing the shirt would be "greenlit" (vernacular for being assaulted) like some Americans who wear Donald Trump's signature red trucker hats emblazoned with his "Make America Great Again" mantra. Charles Creitz is a reporter for Fox News Digital.
"[They] said that I like Trump, that my career will be over, that my life would be over. They said stuff like people get killed for wearing a hat like that," he said on "Tucker Carlson Tonight." He joined Fox News in 2013 as a writer and production assistant.
West also explained why his lanyard-borne credential for Milan Fashion Week featured a photograph of a baby's ultrasound. Charles covers media, politics and breaking news, and has covered the annual CPAC conference for Fox News Digital.
