WSJ Reporter Detained in Russia: White House's Efforts to Secure Release.

TL;DR Summary
The author suggests sending Fox News host Tucker Carlson to Moscow to negotiate the release of American journalist Danny Gershkovich, who is currently imprisoned in Russia. Carlson has expressed pro-Russia views in the past and has been endorsed by the Kremlin. While some may see this as a propaganda victory for Putin, the author argues that freeing an innocent man is worth it. Additionally, it would be a chance for Carlson to do the right thing and for Rupert Murdoch to redeem himself for the tainting of his news properties.
