"Can Tucker Carlson Be Shamed?"

Does Tucker Carlson know what shame is?
"Tucker Carlson says he’s the victim of a powerful bully. Meet the 24-year-old who found the tapes."

"Madeline Peltz works the night shift at the liberal media watchdog group Media Matters for America. Given the timing of that particular shift, one of her main responsibilities is watching Tucker Carlson’s 8 p.m. show on Fox News."
Madeline watches Tucker, now he should be gone from Fox if Fox had any dignity or morals.
"After many Carlson-watching hours, the 24-year-old researcher developed a working theory, which she outlined on the nonprofit’s website: that Carlson is using his platform on Fox News to introduce white-nationalist ideas to the mainstream, making him a uniquely prominent “mouthpiece for white supremacy.”"
White Nationalism is Tucker niche. I knew that. It is obvious to anyone who listens to his crap.

"Tucker Carlson Defends A Polygamist Cult Leader Against Child Rape Charges In Crazy Audio"
If you didn't already know Fox's Tucker Carlson was a horrible person, this audio discovered by Media Matters will leave no doubt.

If you ant to erase Michael Jackson and put R. Kelly in jail, what to do with Tucker Carlson?
Tucker Carlson is one of the worst talking heads you will ever listen to on TV. Anne Coulter, Sean Hannity, Fox News Judge, Rush Limbaugh, Alex Jones all stick to their nasty opinions and ugly side, so why is Tucker running scared?
Tucker Carlson was called out a while ago by a Swedish Professor and he cussed out the Professor, and chose not to air the on-line interview "for the sake of my fans." lol!
Tucker defended a man who facilitated child rape! Rather than apologize he is doubling down on stupid. Stupid is as stupid does.
"The Tucker Carlson drama, explained"
Another major advertiser cut ties with Tucker after offensive tapes emerged — but Fox News is standing behind him.

"One minute after Tucker Carlson’s Monday evening show began, Media Matters for America resurfaced audio clips of the Fox News host echoing white nationalist themes and insulting Muslims during appearances he made on Bubba the Love Sponge’s radio show during the aughts.
“Iraq is a crappy place filled with a bunch of, you know, semiliterate primitive monkeys,” Carlson said in one clip from October 7, 2008.
Monday night’s release represents the second cache of audio clips published by the liberal media watchdog group this week. Media Matters released clips Sunday night, as Vox detailed, where Carlson makes misogynistic and offensive comments — including defending child sexual abuse, demeaning sex workers and women, and making suggestive comments about underage girls.
On Wednesday, "Now This News" published a third tranche of Carlson clips — audio of him alternately mocking and joking about having sex with underaged beauty pageant contestants."
Keep this guy away from your toddler and teen daughters!
"Tucker isn’t sorry — and Fox News stands behind him
In response to the first tranche of resurfaced audio clips, Fox News’s public relations arm released a statement from Carlson on Sunday night in which he downplayed his defense of child sexual abuse as “something naughty” that he said “on a radio show more than a decade ago.”"
Tucker is trying to be a provocateur, at best, but he comes out an ass hole. Tucker is not smart, clever, or entertaining in any way, but he does have interesting eyebrows.
"Carlson was defiant during his Monday evening show, the first since the clips surfaced. During his monologue, he portrayed himself as a victim of the “great American outrage machine,” and characterized his situation as “a bewildering moment, especially when the quotes in question are more than a decade old.”
At the end of his monologue, he emphasized that Fox News stands behind him.
“For now, just two points to leave you with. First, Fox News is behind us, as they have been since the very first day. Toughness is a rare quality in a TV network, and we are grateful for that,” Carlson said. “Second, we’ve always apologized when we’re wrong, and will continue to do that. That’s what decent people do. They apologize. But we will never bow to the mob. Ever. No matter what.”
Notably, Carlson did not in fact apologize for anything he said in the Bubba the Love Sponge tapes. In fact, he went on to use a white nationalist dog whistle during his Monday evening show."
Fox News is a sick media group. Absolutely sick! Catch anyone on CNN or MSNBC with this kind of history and they are GONE!
"Last December, Carlson — who took over Bill O’Reilly’s primetime time slot after O’Reilly was forced out amid a sexual harassment scandal in May 2017 — was widely denounced after he said during his Fox News that immigrants make America “poorer and dirtier and more divided.”
Carlson’s comments resulted in 14 companies pulling their advertising. AstraZeneca followed suit on Monday, on the heels of Media Matters publishing the first set of clips from Bubba the Love Sponge’s show."
People talk about erasing Michael Jackson and R. Kelly for pedophilia. How close is Tucker to this kind of sickness?
It's the Benjamins, dude!
"While Carlson’s show is becoming increasingly hard for to monetize, ratings remain strong. On Monday, the Wrap reported that so far in 2019, Carlson’s show is “averaging 2.9 million total viewers per episode, which is 41 percent more than Chris Hayes on MSNBC and a whopping 122 percent more than CNN’s Anderson Cooper.”"
"Why does Tucker Carlson act like he’s the victim?"
By Monica Hesse March 12 at 5:10 PM
"Twenty years ago, Carlson was a rapscallion — a scrappy thorn in the establishment’s side. Writing political profiles for magazines, he jabbed at political operative James Carville; he revealed that George W. Bush liked to swear. But now he’s not a thorn. Now he’s the settled, well-fed establishment. He’s a member of the media elite who uses his show to warn his viewers about the media elite. He declares that “Republican leaders are controlled by the left,” when it’s actually Republicans who control the White House and the Senate, who controlled the House until a few months ago, who have appointed two conservative justices to the Supreme Court."
Victim or attacker or bully? He is a character about to become extinct.
"The eyebrows of Tucker Carlson are a blend of smugness and bafflement, of fear and outrage, of concern and vitriol.
It’s the expression of privileged people who, squinting into the horizon, fear they can spot the waning of that privilege. It’s the expression of someone who knows they’re still untouchable, but only for now."
