Ah, making even more sense.
Wouldn't this be an endorsement of him and not a repudiation of him?
Wouldn't this be the exact scenario if he was simply a good journalist who wouldn't tow the company line of a fake news network?
<< his “sudden pro-Iranian advocacy.” >>
Not sudden at all. He’s been pimping for the mullahs for a long time. It became very obvious when he blasted Trump on air for taking out Qasem Soleimani in 2020.
>> Maybe Carlson seeks conversation with people who think differently than he. What a shame that would be.
Could it be that Tucker Carlson is, at his most basic instinct, a journalist?
Please remind me what it is that a real journalist actually does. They have been so scarce over the last few decades that I forgot!
>> Does he ever interview people who don’t wear diapers on their heads?
You can’t possibly be that much of an idiot. Or maybe your dream is to go where no idiot has gone before...
If nothing else he seeks a basic understanding of friend and foe alike while commenting at times on the basis of his convictions. I don’t see a pretense of objectivity other than his willingness to listen to anyone without interrupting or jumping to conclusions. In that regard he is a good example of how every citizen should be. I’m not sure “journalist” is the right word.
>> I’m not sure “journalist” is the right word.
Nor am I, but he undeniably comes from that background (for decades).
>> I don’t see a pretense of objectivity other than his willingness to listen to anyone without interrupting or jumping to conclusions.
Yep. And I believe that is an important and necessary component of the “new journalism”.
I don’t know HOW she even became part of the article....except her name is mentioned at the very end...
Exactly! It’s not a sudden thing.
Quoting REDDIT on Free Republic?
Interdasting.
So True!! Many don’t know what a real journalist is.
Mucusmax has a new divisive strategy. Its no longer just declaring everyone an agent of Putin
Last week he incited the mob against Thomas Massie
This week, its against Tucker Carlson
Divide and conquer - its the globohomo, deep-state way.
I'm a man (a man) without conviction I'm a man (a man) who doesn't know How to sell (to sell) a contradiction You come and go You come and go
He seems to come and go a lot.
“Think differently”??
I want no conversations with anyone wishing me dead!
“Candace Owens. Is she pro Israel ...? “
She’s anti-semite, ASAIK. Says she’s a Christian. Odd for a Christian to say she hates God’s chosen people. I dunno.
Tucker on video:
“At the 12:20 mark in the episode, Carlson noted that the horrific videos of Hamas militants kidnapping and executing Israeli citizens are “morally outrageous,” but stated, “You don’t have to look far in the United States for moral outrages also on video.””
The moral outrages he refers to are the 100,000 deaths a year from meth that no one mentions. This was made when Biden was president.
You must not be very bright to accuse Tucker of not condemning Hamas.
Tucker is just being a good interviewer. Leftist interviewers do not conduct interviews of their ideological opponents- they do attack sessions. Tucker interviews the bad guys as well as the good guys as an interviewer, not as judge and jury.
That’s not condemnation. That’s whataboutism.
I posted about Massie? Really?
