Tucker Carlson Obsession Thread (merged)

[Franklin Pierce]

Former Arkansas Governor, Mike Huckabee, had his own show on Fox News for 6 years. He is an ordained Baptist Minister, who would frequently cite passages of scripture on his show.

I doubt that played a role in Carlson's ouster.

Since you work for FOX, and are an insider, I guess you would know.

'Rupert Murdoch doesn't like all that spiritual talk': Tucker Carlson was fired after preaching about good, evil and the need for prayer - after tycoon's ex-fiancée Ann Lesley Smith said the firebrand anchor was a 'messenger from God'

One of the contributors to Tucker Carlson's sudden firing from Fox this week may have been an evangelical speech on Friday night where he preached about 'good and evil', according to a source cited by Vanity Fair.

Some sources say Murdoch and other Fox News executives were outraged by Carlson's unflattering remarks about them that became public in the Dominion lawsuit record. Others say it was down to a recent discrimination lawsuit filed against him and some of his most senior staff by a former booking producer.

Vanity Fair's Gabriel Sherman cites sources who say overtly religious displays such as Carlson's on Friday night 'freak' Rupert Murdoch 'out'.

'That stuff freaks Rupert out. He doesn’t like all the spiritual talk.'

The speech came just a few weeks after Murdoch's ex-fiancée, Ann Lesley Smith, is said to have called Carlson a 'messenger from God'.

The pair had discussed religion during a recent dinner at Murdoch's Bel Air vineyard. Murdoch called off the brief engagement after two weeks.

I don't know ... but if Rupert Murdoch is so freaked out by theology, why was Mike Huckabee allowed to host a show on Fox News for 6 years? It's a fair question, in response to your post.

What I said about Mike Huckabee was accurate. Check Huckabee's biographical profile. Mike Huckabee is an ordained Baptist Minister. I watched his show a few times. He would frequently quote bible verses.

Pffft. Don't all "messengers from God" call women the c-word?

I still can't figure out why anyone cares that a multimillionaire was fired?

I'm glad that he will have a lower profile to spew his Russian propaganda. Jon Stewart had it right on Crossfire in 2004. Tucker Carlson is a di*k.

Russia Russia Russia.

that's all they got

We still have CNN and you.

Putin simply wanted chaos, the dems fell for it.

Russia knows the dems would be up in arms simply by mentioning Tucker's name. Russia knows the dems already despise FN as a counter to their leftist propaganda and state regime media machine.

 

[BreatheUT]

Oh good grief. Try coming up with something ORIGINAL for once dude
There are a lot of people who despise Russia but really don’t want us bankrupting ourselves and depleting our arsenal of weaponry and ammunition as a result. It is not a binary choice you know

This!

 

[BreatheUT]

Some of us are old enough to remember when the Democrats were quite smitten with the Russians themselves you know

Tucker already has the Kremlin's endorsement.

Xiden's got the Chinese. Should be interesting. China vs Russia

When I say that Tucker Carlson broadcast Russian state-sponsored propaganda ... it is supported with a link to an example of what I'm referring to. It is meant in the literal sense, because that is exactly what Tucker Carlson has done - and the Russian government is showing him their appreciation.

My example :

Tucker Carlson Duped By Fake Russian Propaganda Docs on Ukraine War

When you repeat the same accusation, it is never accompanied by a link to an example of what you are referring to. You are simply being repetitive like a child, and engaging in hyperbolic tit-for-tat.

Where is your example ??? Let me guess ... You don't have one, do you?

I’m sure you’ll tune in to Tucker Carlson podcasts just so you can cry about it.

Because he likes money

 

[lukeneyland]

Did Tucker come up with his own stuff? Or was he just a talking head with a script? I rarely pay attention to Fox but I’ve seen a few snippets of him on YouTube and thought he was pretty accurate most of the time

 

[BowlBrother85]

Did Tucker come up with his own stuff?

No.

Tucker Carlson was either reading Russian state-sponsored propaganda, or the latest crackpot conspiracy theory made up from scratch by one of the far-right kooks on 4chan.

BB has a hard on for Tucker and Russia. He believes what Rachel tells him. Hell, BB was the lead poster on the Russian Dossier thread.

No, I wasn't. That's an outright lie.

I didn't comment on the Steele Dossier much at all, except to point out that it was an unethical undertaking. Both the 2016 Hillary Clinton Campaign and the DNC were sanctioned by the FEC for how it was funded, and misreported .... and deservedly so.

Wooooo sanctioned... How will she ever get over that?

It involved a fine ... which will always be mostly symbolic punishment. The point is, I never defended Hillary Clinton for the funding of the Steele Dossier. I was critical of it. That was a lie.

I love he way everyone else is tell lies or working with foreign government except those that are Dems or support Dems regardless of the fact the Dems have been caught outright repeatedly doin both.
