The top writer for Fox News host Tucker Carlson secretly posted messages on an online forum with racist, sexist, and homophobic messages for years, CNN Business reported Friday.

Most recently, on June 24, Neff posted a message on the forum, AutoAdmit, reading, "Honestly given how tired black people always claim to be, maybe the real crisis is their lack of sleep," according to CNN Business.

On June 5, CNN Business reported that he wrote another comment reading, "Black doods staying inside playing Call of Duty is probably one of the biggest factors keeping crime down." The same day, Neff is alleged to have replied to a thread titled, "Didn't Michael Brown rob a store and attack a police officer? And wasn't [George Floyd] a piece of shit with a long criminal record? Jfc libs."

One user commented on the thread, saying "It doesn't matter," to which Neff replied with, "It does. The violent criminals are even MORE heroic," according to the CNN Business report.

CNN Business also alleged that on May 25, he accused Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tlaib, and Ilhan Omar a group of progressive freshman congresswomen known as "The Squad" of wanting to "MAKE YOUR COUNTRY A DUMPING GROUND FOR PEOPLE FROM THIRD WORLD SHITHOLES," he wrote in a post on the online forum.

In March of this year, Neff mocked a woman he was connected on social media who posted about her plan to freeze her eggs, CNN Business reported, creating a thread titled, "Disaster: WuFlu outbreak endangers aging shrew's quest to freeze eggs."

A Fox News spokesperson confirmed to Business Insider that Neff has resigned, but did not confirm the circumstances behind his departure nor did they comment on the CNN Business report.

When he was the top writer for Tucker Carlson Tonight, Neff told the Dartmouth Alumni Magazine that "anything he is reading off the teleprompter, the first draft was written by me," adding that he initially discussed news coverage with Carlson every day but has since "gotten used to what he likes and what he thinks about."
