Drudges latest post got me thinking, "why all the fuss about Tucker Carlson lately?"
FOXNEWS O'REILLY 2,722,000
FOXNEWS HANNITY/COLMES 2,016,000
FOXNEWS GRETA 1,864,000
FOXNEWS SHEP SMITH 1,563,000
CNN LARRY KING 1,277,000
CNN AARON BROWN 751,000
CNN ZAHN 718,000
CNN COOPER 618,000
CNNHN NANCY GRACE 583,000
MSNBC OLBERMANN 459,000
MSNBC HARDBALL 330,000
MSNBC SCARBOROUGH 325,000
MSNBC TUCKER CARLSON** 231,000
Why does anyone care? Simple, because one time funny guy turned left wing nut job Jon Stewart made an ass out of himself by being mean to him on crossfire. Now it is like a bag of blood in a shark pool, the blood lust for Tucker is crazy. The left HATES him for being the only right wing thinker on their beloved Clinton News Network. Tucker Carlson who Wikipedia says, is generally considered one of the most recognizable conservative personalities in American television, has now jumped ship over to msnbc after getting canned from crossfire. At least that is what Ive gathered from the MSM.
If you are like me you didnt even know Tucker was a conservative. Not that I listened to him and thought that. I just figured if he is on CNN he was a lefty. Well, with him out of the way I guess the whole socialist world is happy now. Man, working at CNN has got to be like being in a year around moveon.org rally. B O R I N G!
A few things come to mind in light of reading the stats from Tuesdays ratings.
1. Why isnt Shep #1? He is the greatest news man in our time.
2. Have you noticed msnbc is turning into the fox clone network?
3. Who is Oldermann?
4. Who is Cooper?
5. Is Larry King really still alive?
Keep your chin up Tucker, and maybe one day you will find a network news station that doesnt suck. Until then, good luck.
One last thought, you know why they hate Fox News? Not because it is all conservatives because it is not. There are tons of libs on Fox News. The difference is, Fox tells you ahead of time what side they are on and what they believe. The left simple cant handle the light of truth.
Tucker Carlson is about as effective as Alan Colmes, and he fills the same role, only in reverse.
