Tucker Carlson: Highest rated show in the history of cable news

two wrongs don't make a right wrote:

Stop the faux righteousness.

Meanwhile on MSNBC an actual host who herself posted homophobic things and lied about them to try and cover them up is now a primetime anchor.

Not sure if that means her writer is racist or not.

Difference is people actually watch Tucker Carlson. You can pretend everyone who does is a racist or we can live in a more nuanced world. Decrying everyone you disagree with as racist or homophobic isn't productive.

You do understand that a homophobic statement does make her racist?

I’m not defending or supporting her at all.

I never said everyone who watches Carlson is racist, what I said is it is clear that Carlson writer is racist and I believe that partially explains the racist dog whistles that Carlson likes to make on occasion.

Ahhhh, yes... the "dog whistle". The unprovable 'I want it to be' insinuation that another person is shadow-racisming.

You don't find Joy Reid to be "dog whistling" constantly on her show?

The problem I find with those not of the 'conservative' political slant, is their ability to think that racism is a one-way street. Well, as somebody who is thoroughly traveled throughout this world for many many years, I can say without hesitation that racism is indeed everywhere in the world. And as somebody who has spent a lot of time around black Americans too, there is indeed a deep seeded racist slant toward white people, and understandably so. But, it is there, and its not going away any time soon.

Do I wish we could "all just get along" as Rodney King asked???... absolutely, I do. But complete political power is the mission, and getting along is not in the cards for psychopathic power seekers.

I have never watched Joy Reed in my life so I simply cannot comment. I’d never even heard of her until now, so I won’t be defending her. This is a thread about TC, so I’m discussing that. You can try to muddy the waters all you want but TC’s writer was clearly racist and has resigned because of that. I also believe TC panders to racist elements.

He’s also elite AF but pretends to be a man of the people. I’m not buying it.

Should the goal of news shows be to get high ratings or to tell the news?

Seems like a conflict of interest to maybe sensationalize things to get more viewers.

Yep, remove all advertisements from news shows/networks and see if the continual slide to more outrageous behavior and stories stops.

Tucker Carlson is the only truth speaker left.

His top speechwriter for the last four years just resigned. The reason: He was shone to be the writer of numerous blatantly racist comments on online forums. He had previously boasted that he wrote the first draft of everything Carlson read off the teleprompter. This is the guy who wrote for "the only truth speaker left."

Fair enough.

He is, but I personally believe that there are folks in those levels of society that do have decency and true empathy left. TC can come off wrong to some, but he does have a better track record on our current state of politics. He called John Bolton insane to his face... I can support that. He never bought the Russia collusion garbage, as the rest of the MSM did... and now we all know it was BS.

The reality is, he's doing a better job of providing better information to the viewers. CNN and MSNBC have devolved into sheer lunacy, and predictably have jumped on to the 'white racism' train. Like I said, this stuff runs all directions. Take a peek at the liberal echo-chambers of twitter for some extremely overt racist insight.

Keep on believing those polls.

Biden winning by 15%????

Hahahahahaha!!!!!

Yeah, right!!!

It's clear there is a silent majority.

I also expect Biden's poll numbers to go down significantly once he picks a VP because he is not considering qualified candidates.

He will pick someone further to the left than he is, and it very well be a woman and/or a person of color. This will likely alienate a lot of Americans, and his numbers will go down. If it's not clear already, it will become crystal clear after the debates that we are essentially voting for either Trump or Biden's VP candidate because he is either mentally unfit for office right now or will be very early into his first term. I've said this many times, and I'll say it again, Biden is going to get absolutely annihilated in the debates. Like Trump or hate him, he is quick and charismatic, and he's able to read a crowd and say what everyone else is thinking. Biden is a stumbling mess and one of the least inspiring candidates we've had in decades.

I see Trump winning again. And no, I'm not a Trump supporter.

Sure, you're a Trump hoper which is actually worse.

lol Trump is quick? "You're a puppet" was is retort of the HRC debate. And yes , I remember because I thought 'how could anyone support this idiot?'. But you apparently went ' What a genius!!"

Tucker Carlson is an ANTI-RACIST, he speaks out against Racism regardless of which group is the Victim/s of Racism, INCLUDING Racism against White People, which very few do, and he should be commended for doing so, as it is awkward defending whites, as other groups at One Time (Blacks) were far more discriminated against than whites are now, He is in Favor of a COLORBLIND Meritocracy, which EVERYONE should be in favor of, even if it means Asians will become the Overwhelming majority in Top Schools like Harvard, Yale ETC, They EARNED it with HARD WORK, so no one should gripe.

Yes, opposing policies intended to give black people more equitable access to higher- ed opportunities is a surefire sign you're an anti-racist...

You've just been given undeniable proof that Tucker Carlson's HEAD WRITER (aka, someone who directly influences the content of the show ) is a huge racist. And he isn't the first associate of Carlson's to be outed as a white nationalist. This doesn't concern you, Doug? You're positive that it's just Tucker's very bad luck that these sorts of people (whom he vehemently disagrees with) want to work for him and have infiltrated his show?

If I were on the left, I would be doing everything I could to make Tucker look bad as well. He actually says what everyone is thinking, and covers the areas we need to be watching. He was covering China years ahead of the pandemic, and everything he said turned out to be true.

Marxism won't work here. Socialism won't work here. Communism won't work here. Feel free to push those ideas, but at some point, we will be pushing back. Count on it.

Keep up the crazy, you are electing Trump with every insane thing you say.

It just shows there are a lot of uneducated ppl in the US

Gotta love the 'liberal' dominated US education system. And gotta love how the 'liberals' want topen border's for non-stop 'uneducated' immigrants from third world countries to continue coming into the country.

Socialism + Open borders = liberal lunacy

Has he spoken out against the writer who was canned for posting racist commentary elsewhere or against David Duke for endorsing him for Vice President? Maybe he has but I have yet to see it.

This is just in the last two days. Not a real good look for Mr. Anti Racist.

He’s a coward.

Still don't understand why people think "hide in the bunker" is a slam, why would you not want to be protected if you're the most targeted person in the world and there's a radical mob outside your house. Sorta just seems like common sense
