Perhaps a symptom of the problem in the US is that people resort to name calling at the drop of a hat and retreat to their safe zones- both right and left. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its was a twisted ideology that he promoted: It’s an ideology that panders to many Americans’ bigoted and xenophobic impulses, their resentments and their grievances. It welcomes in voices denounced by others as racist, and delights in mocking “woke” liberals. It promotes conspiracy theories. It admires foreign leaders denounced by others as authoritarians. It denounces “elites,” the traditional establishments of both parties, and the long-held commitments of US foreign policy. https://www.vox.com/politics/2023/4/24/23696053/tucker-carlson-exit-fox-news-populism Good riddance to him 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OneMoreFarang Posted April 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2023 Why is anybody missing that serial liar who on air supported that other serial liar who still wants to be president? Do people still believe any of them? Why? Or do these people prefer to live in ignorance? The earth is flat, let's look for people who confirm my opinion.

Hard to know if he believes what he was spouting, e.g., he claims to support Trump but in private hated the guy. Fact is, Tucker's aim in life was to profit by making Americans hate each other. The dude was good at his job. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post heybruce Posted April 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2023 2 hours ago, thaibeachlovers said: At least it was more than balanced than CNN IMO. Certainly more entertaining and didn't rely on bashing Trump to get viewers. Tucker getting the heave ho is going to make a lot of posters on AN happy, going by past comments, but I liked his shows, though he could have worked on more than one expression. Did you like his shows because they were entertaining, or did you actually think they were informative. If the Tuck show had been properly billed as entertainment, or very clearly presented as opinions, not facts, it would have been acceptable. Unfortunately many people thought it was a news program. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Eric Loh Posted April 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2023 The Abby Grossberg's lawsuit against Tucker for alleged sexism could the the proverbial straw that had Fox ousting him. Just one too many for Fox to back pedal their battered image. Now Tucker will have to foot his own legal fees to defend himself. Karma is a sweet revengeful bitch. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/24/business/media/tucker-carlson-abby-grossberg-lawsuit.html 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May as well get paid more for supporting Russian propaganda and destroying US democracy. Something that they both have been doing for years.
