Mr. Carlson, on the air, specifically asked people to call him at home. He somehow inadvertently gave out the wrong number (that of Fox) and they simply corrected the record so he could get the calls he solicited.

OK, I have to admit, I like this point of view. :)

I simply don't understand those who question Mr. Carlson's motives and credibility. He did ask for calls at home and he did attempt to give out his number. It was a simple mistake and a fortuante coincidence that it was the number of someone who knew him. That enabled the recipient of those Carlson requested calls to forward them to the correct number. Imagine if he'd given out your or my number.

Would you want to be responsible for depriving him of the business and consumer choices in those calls ?

If his wife objects to him giving out their home number on the air and asking for telemarketer calls (I can't imagine why she would object, but then millions of Americans voted for Bill Clinton and I never got that either), she could let Tucker keep that number as a special hot line and get a new unlisted number.
