What the fuck is wrong with Tucker Carlson (this time)?

There’s a phrase I haven’t heard in a while!
And while I’m here, Fuck Tucker Carlson and anyone who would hire him.

Surprising. I thought this board would be full of Newsmax fans.

That is a dead link for me.

Many people are saying that a joke he told, with the punchline “because it makes your dick look really big”, was what got him the axe.

Because when you think “working class” you think of a smarmy twerp in a bow-tie named “Tucker”.

One data point: My daffy landlord hasn’t watched them since the 2020 election, and he used to watch them from at least 5-9 every weeknight.

Is this a whoosh? Or some joke inherent in the comment? Or a well known racist joke?

I don’t get it.

It’s a pedophilia joke. Spoiled, 'cause gross:

What’s the best part of getting a hand job from a five year old?

To be marginally less gross you could replace the object of the blurred text with Donald Trump.

But only marginally.

When Fox actually did their job and called Arizona for Biden it made a lot of right wingers realize it was actually a left wing media outlet.

He’s doing Countdown on a podcast now. I listen every now and then when I’m in the mood for an angry rant.

I’m leaning towards RT, the network where old reporters are put out to pasture until they die.

If you read the article I posted above Newsmax is going to give him anything he wants.

Lots of places in the pit I could put this, (Elon Musk thread? defense of Russia thread?) but I think I’ll bump this thread instead.

It seems that even if Fox isn’t paying his salary, he’s still getting his regular checks from Putin. His weekly twitter show started off with unadulterated Russia propaganda blaming Ukraine for the destruction of the dam, along a heaping dose good old fashioned antisemitism directed at Zelensky.

While he was at it he hit some old fav conspiracy hits, including 9/11 and aliens. Also, who organized the black lives riots? The government knows but its classified. He doesn’t list the prime suspects I’d guess they rhyme with “forge morose and the pews”.

…aliens?

““That’s what the former Intel officer revealed, and it was clear he was telling the truth,” Mr Carlson said. “In other words, UFOs are actually real, and apparently so is extraterrestrial life.”

Yep, aliens, and not the lock-them-up-at-the-border kind.

The whole Ancient Aliens thing is rooted in white supremacy. Clearly these ignorant brown people can’t make these amazing monuments, aliens did. Note the lack of diversity among the “theorists” on those shows.

No shocker that Tucker is on that bandwagon.
