Why Is Tucker Carlson? - SOME MORE NEWS

oh here's some news tucker carlson can eat whoa if you say so tucker can eat it the poo in like a like a like a bowl or something with a with a ladle slurp it all up and that's that's just what the paper says and you might be saying hey dude of news cool your jets does tucker carlson really deserve to eat all of our poops to which the paper says and thus i say yes i will support this wild inflammatory claim with the following video you are watching which and i'm so sorry about this is going to be entirely about tucker carlson again i apologize i'm sorry for a lot of things that have happened so far and it's easy to simply write tucker off as one of a long line of right-wing propagandists which a lot of what he is but to be fair and balanced my slogan and no one else's tucker is also a white nationalist propagandist currently he is the host of tucker carlson tonight an editor in chief for the Daily Caller two outlets one could spend literal hours pointing out the falsehoods of but we're mostly not going to do that and we're mostly not going to talk about how often he regularly spouts white nationalist talking points and how white nationalists openly love him for it instead we're going to run off the assumption that everything i've already said about little tux is something you my beautiful beautiful viewer already suspected i'd much rather talk about the evolution and life of this formerly bow-tied ruffian and potential future poop eater so that we could perhaps understand him better it's the valid of liar tub gather the children start a small fire around your computer and roast a delightful treat as you hear my tale much like a token desk adventure i'm going to start at the end picture in your mind's eye a storybook slowly getting closer the pages magically opening to one perfect moment but you're not you're not part of the solution mr. Kosan you're part of the problem actually you're all like oh I'm against a globalist elite blah blah blah it's not very convincing to be honest so first we have Tucker Carlson the Tuck man Chucky's tum-tums completely losing dignity and control after Dutchess story and Rutger Bregman points out that tux is an obvious and terrible liar who scapegoats immigrants for billionaires then one month later this happened she seems like a full yeah they're very deep she seems extremely I hear that word oh yeah I'd step over me she seems why not go ahead she does seem a little that's from a clip you've no doubt seen from Media Matters who resurfaced a series of crude interviews between tux and an adult human man called Bubba the Love Sponge where Tucker defends a rapist as well as makes a long list of racist and sexist comments he seems to think are funny he also talks like a predator about a teenage beauty pageant contestant and suggests that adult men [ __ ] girls is probably bad but adult women boys doesn't count as rape and is good actually it's quite possible even more things like this will come out by the time this video is released but the audio all adds up to a deeply unserious and toxic depiction that forced the t-dog snarl s'en to give an impassioned anti internet mob retort on his own show the great American outrage machine is a remarkable thing there's really not that much you can do to respond it's pointless to try to explain how the words were spoken in jest or taken out of context or in any case bear no resemblance to what you actually think or would want for the country you must pretend this is a debate about virtue and not about power the your critics are arguing from principle and not from partisanship why are the people who consider Bill Clinton a hero lecturing me about sexism we've always apologized when we're wrong and will continue to do that so firstly I've always considered Bill Clinton a rapist Bill Clinton rapists secondly it's pretty fun that Carlson accuses his critics of pretending argue about principle instead of partisanship the idea being that internet outraged culture is secretly about faking a moral stance in order to attack your political enemies because this is clearly something that Tucker Carlson would never do and certainly hasn't built his entire television persona around I've worked in newsrooms my whole life but that one word that she used I don't know any man who uses that word well Tucker it turns out you know at least two men that used that word but hold on you say his comments were a whole half a decade ago surely we can't attack this man for some naughty things he once said otherwise we're no better than the people who went after the likes of James Gunn or Dan Harmon even the head of Media Matters was discovered to have some old blog post that he claims to be satire and those are yeah but libs I mean do you want everyone fired for everything they've ever said and here's the thing about all that shut up about all that because anyone disingenuously using that argument is ignoring the fact that nothing from these media matters clips is different from anything that Tucker Carlson says on his show right now it's just wrapped up in a less vulgar package Tucker claims it's pointless to try to explain how the words were spoken in jest or taken out of context or in any case bear no resemblance to what you actually think or would want for the country Tucker you say this stuff all the time even the stuff about female teachers their students and he says that like as recently as slightly more than a year ago a news anchor who reports current events and his opinions to three million people who want his opinions talked about how Iraqis are semi-illiterate primitive monkeys sidenote Tucker before the Iraq war Iraq's literacy rate was higher than some US states you racist he's on state TV talking about immigration and foreign policy and to act like any of this is somehow removed from the context of his career it's just it's just not worth anyone's time or at least any more time than I've already spent on it which was too much time so enough about he has said let's talk about what he does we're going to break down just one of his segments about those affer mentioned immigrants to see just how totally not terrible he is just one segment I swear for Democrats is understandable because the calculus is simple having abandoned the concerns of the middle class here they need millions of new voters and they need them fast otherwise their party risks becoming a permanent minority replacing ungrateful citizens with obedient immigrants is their only hope in exactly one minute into the video tuck ohm's has claimed that the democrats only motivation for supporting daca or the deferred action for childhood arrivals is that more immigrants get them more voters he offers absolutely nothing as evidence so a reasonable person might assume that the rest of the video is designed to support it you know like like if you started a video by saying a specific person should eat poop you would then need to spend the rest of your video explaining why which I still intend to do but Tucker never intends to explain why he's essentially starting with a speculative conclusion that's laughable on its face and then just moving on as if it's now true so ok Tucker what is the next fact for us every Democrat has thought it through for even a minute knows this well they can't say it in public though because obviously it's horrible so instead they're trying a new talking point illegal immigrants are terrific people every single one of them far more noble and law-abiding than you are how dare you complain about their presence you must be a bigot the one problem with this line of argument is that it's vulnerable to facts now we're nearing minute - and tucky comes beau claims that Democrats and liberals will scream bigoted at anyone who disagrees with immigration despite the cold hard facts saying that immigrants cause more crimes he then cites a study seemingly proving just that in the border state of Arizona for example illegal immigrants commit two and a half times as many murders as American citizens do they're almost 50% more likely to be in gangs they commit more than armed robbery and more sex crimes against children overall there are about twice as likely to be convicted of crimes of all kinds non immigration related and just in one state so John Lott who's a researcher or social scientists got ahold of the conviction numbers which the government of the state of Arizona has hidden from the population because it's lying to the population about the effects of immigration as you know now if the name John lot sounds familiar that's because we literally just did a video debunking his study this study the tucky carbo is citing which is inaccurate and made by a weird fraud who peer reviews his own work which is largely created for conservative talking points and there's a bunch of other studies that have shown immigrants to be equally if not less prone to crime as the rest of America but again I literally just did that already so go watch that other video I did it's fantastic the main takeaway here is the study that Tuck Everlasting is referring to is bad and wrong and it's going to be the entire foundation of his segment and this is mostly how he operates he starts with a bold lie or inaccuracy that his audience doesn't have the time or desire to fact-check or learn the nuance of and then he builds a bigger lie from that it's like a magician saying there's nothing up his sleeve and the audience thinking okay magician I trust you magician whatever you say magician in California in illegal alien name Lewis braås amantes murdered two police officers so next he immediately follows up his wrongness with a single story about the worst immigrant criminal he can find using it to ramp up anger via anecdotal evidence while ignoring literally everything he previously said about the importance of facts he then establishes the idea that liberals are letting these immigration crimes happen because of a foolish and emotional idea that diversity is our strength except I thought it was because of the votes Tucker what the [ __ ] but what follows after that is the gooey gooey Center is it true the less we have in common the stronger we are is a marriage stronger when spouses have radically different beliefs are you closer to your kids when you share no common points of reference do you speak the same language is your best friend could you be best friends if you didn't these are important questions given that our leaders are radically and permanently changing our country wholly on the basis of their faith that diversity is in fact our strength now let's break that one town because the fact that Tucker Carlson can't imagine being friends with or in a marriage with someone who has different beliefs as him or in the same town as someone who speaks a different language it's pretty telling he's either saying that because he a truly can't imagine a universe where he could psychologically handled the first thought or be he's trying to appeal to specific viewers who can't imagine being friends with people from other cultures racists that think Tucker is one of also in terms of immigration and America it's a colossal II bat point because well personal relationships and marriages aren't the same thing as a country with millions of people Tucker what the Tucker oh it's a false equivalence designed to hook scared old people who don't like things that are different from them I see now in fairness and balance Ness T Carl clarifies that he's not actually talking about race and is therefore not a racist don't the left lie to you that doesn't mean we have to look alike doesn't mean we have to come from the same places it does mean we have to share common beliefs otherwise we'll hate each other and the whole enterprise will fall apart you see it's not about your race we can have all of the races even the bad ones as long as everyone in America shares a common belief we all need to think the same apparently I don't know Tucker I'm trying to be fair and balanced here and I guess you could argue that maybe you're just talking about like broad ideals like like freedom of press and speech respecting each other but I don't know man for one then why did you bring up common frames of reference and language and for the second thing it sure does say illegal alien crime in huge letters behind you while you're talking about it so but lucky for him he keeps it so vague that every one of his viewers can plug in their own specific religion or belief so ultimately he's not saying anything beyond a broad justification for people to reject the idea of diversity and immigration he literally has zero facts or coherent points and in fact Tucker when you went to Twitter to defend your dumbest things you said you repeated them quote how precisely is diversity our strength can you think of other institutions such as marriage or military units in which the less people have in common the more cohesive they are yes Tucker in fact studies on the effects of diversity literally cite the military it makes teams better more innovative and while it can make some teams inefficient in the short term quote scientists have found in the very friction inherent and bringing together a group of individuals with different worldviews is what causes them to work harder think more deliberately and learn how to communicate more effectively literally the military Tucker in fact Tucker here's you debating your views at politican and it's before or after you are explained to your face once again about low immigrant crime and the benefits of immigration and you mentioned Robert Putnam and there's a lot of study on this Robert Putnam at Harvard who's hardly a where has the Bowling Alone guy has done a lot of really interesting study on this again he's a liberal but an honest one and he's like people when they feel threatened when things have changed too much they get really angry and tribal no trust other people and civic institutions collapse and we're seeing this across the country Putnam is cited a lot by people like Tucker because his study says that in the short term diversity makes people hunker down and be more tribal but they never bother to point out the literally second sentence of the abstract in the long run immigration and diversity are likely to have important cultural economic fiscal and developmental benefits going on to describe illustrations drawn quote from the US military religious institutions and earlier waves of American immigration they and Tucker also don't point out that the author himself has described his study as being distorted and his quote extensive research and experience confirmed the substantial benefits of diversity including racial and ethnic diversity to our society and how we must not forget the only statistic you even tried to give is based off an incorrect study by this self peer reviewing weirdo who once made sock puppet accounts to defend his weird self peer-reviewed incorrect studies hey Tucker remember how you just said this thing about those things you said we've always apologized when we're wrong and we'll continue to do that that's what decent people do they apologize so can I expect that apology from you about how you're wrong about everything I've said so far I'm on the Twitter which you're kind of like a soft Nazi I'm sure you love Twitter so hit me up brother for you to administer that apology the last half of Tucker's already incredibly wrong segment of Lies is when he brings on a guest a council member of Phoenix who supports daca Phoenix being a city in the state that Bulls Pope John lot study was about as painful as this will be to watch it really explains why that Bregman fellow from earlier could push Tucker's buttons so easily because Tucker is actually terrible at debate and relies completely on bombarding guests that are too polite to handle his absurdity so if bringing in more people illegally and making them citizens makes you more prosperous then why wouldn't you bring in ten million and become really really rich so how many is the optimum number if bringing in people illegally and giving them citizenship makes you more prosperous what's the number the ideal number of people we should give citizenship to our country in our community was was built by immigration okay and we have so many stories in this community I know stories but yeah person who supports immigration give us an exact number of humans that would equal economic prosperity if you can't give an exact number then I a really smart person win why won't you answer my totally reasonable question also I'm looking for facts so I think it's fair to ask for facts Tucker here knows the exchange ends with Tucker grilling the woman on that good study of his from before prompting her to explain that the crime statistics she is seen from Phoenix don't support his conclusion because again it's a false study she answers his question twice says that the numbers she personally saw don't coincide with the study he's citing because again false study but instead of acknowledging her he just keeps repeating the question over and over and when she refuses to repeat herself a third time old trucks Carlson declares victory because he's a very good debater and that's the secret to his expert tactics he shouts lies at a more serious person and when that person tries to answer with any kind of nuance he calls them the real liar the woman doesn't have crime numbers in front of her and probably doesn't want to ignorant Lee assert something Tucker on the other hand has no problem with certainly vomiting torrents of vomit and can therefore be quicker in the moment declare a victory and not worry if he's wrong later or he just he flat-out ignores their answer and moves on to fast for viewers to notice he's profoundly disingenuous with how he discusses these topics often blatantly contradicting himself most immigrants are nice sure tuck that's what you think you nailed it that's the secret of mr. tux he's already decided that immigrants are bad and is now finding the pieces that will fit his narrative which I hope I'm not doing but it doesn't matter what topic Tucker talks about he always brings it back to immigration Automation Amazon the family unit even your old limp penis or you know your family unit more than a million new immigrants enter this country every year legally a large but unknown number come illegally most of these are low-skilled all of them are looking for work these new rivals compete primarily with the very Americans most likely to have lost their jobs and the effect is lower wages one well-regarded study released last year found that when men's wages fell relative to women's families didn't form according to the authors of falling male wage reduced quote the attractiveness of men as potential spouses thus reducing fertility and especially marriage rates to Tucker when you get down to it everything is the fault of immigrants and every solution to a problem involves fewer immigrants and if someone calls him out for being a racist something he is well he's already decided that it's just a tactic from the left who don't want to hear all the facts he's cherry picked is this facts versus PC culture stance almost constantly applied to an anti-immigration stance that's probably why Nazis love him so much and you know it's general racism Rock is a crappy place filled with a bunch of you know semi-literate monkey bit did you know that about how much Nazis love Tucker Carlson I mentioned it in passing earlier but they super do they love him and what he talks about and he parrots their talking points and he sounds like them when he talks about the things they want him to talk about but I don't ever speak in dog whistles oh good and I could talk about this a lot I could talk about how if Nazis and fascists think that your show in particular is helping their cause and that after mass shootings medias advised to not broadcast the shooters face or views to avoid spreading their message or creating copycats maybe after a posting far-right white supremacist fascist terrorists kills 49 Muslims on a live stream because of white genocide and birth rates and where have I heard that before well maybe maybe don't show his face Tucker or share his manifesto Tucker and then use it to foment fear about the rising authoritarian Left maybe don't highlight the Nazi and his beliefs on your show that Nazis love unbelievable man and sure I could talk about that but that's a bummer actually so at least for now today what I'd much rather do is expand into the larger question of what exactly happened to Tucker Carlson like how does such a terrible person come to be was he birthed like this did he suffer some kind of soul injury was he bitten by a radioactive swastika I'm not the first person to ask this as a profile by Liz Lenz venture to pinpoint his exact metamorphosis it is a harrowing read that I highly recommend and it points out that a lot of Tucker's media colleagues seem to agree that he did change since moving to Fox News you can even see evidence of this such as this clip from the 2009 CPAC where he actually defends the New York Times as a legitimate news source I'm merely saying that at the core of their news gathering operation is gathering news and concern oh and conservatives need to do the same yes they are liberal yes they twist it but they are still out there finding the facts and bringing them to people and conservative you can believe it or not only to be booed for trying to say the conservative news should be more like the news and we're going to circle back to that moment because it explains a lot but my point here is that while Tucker has always been a conservative he didn't appear to be the same person 10 or even 5 years ago he was seemingly less angry less toxic more bow-tied well unless he was on shock jock radio apparently something we are now discovering but there's a reason we didn't notice those appearances all those years back mainly because he wasn't such an overt racist when actually running his main news show over on MSNBC he'd actually engaged in polite debate with the likes of Rachel Maddow actually coming across as a moderate conservative here to debate that air America radio host Rachel Maddow joining us tonight from New York Rachel welcome hi Tucker nice to see you as to see you I am convinced this is a subject on which decent people can disagree in fact I know because I know decent people who are on both sides of this question he was on Dancing with the Stars and while he was really bad at dancing one he was also a really good sport about it he's been to over 50 Grateful Dead concerts and he once wrote a piece idolizing Hunter s Thompson so what happened or did anything even happen his hate ramblings to mr. sponge seemed to indicate that tucky didn't change nearly as much as we might think and this is the point in the ballot of TC where the screen goes all wavy and we flash back to a little Tucker to win his birth mother left his family when he was six years old to practice a bohemian lifestyle in France according to Takara it was a totally bizarre situation that he never talks about because it wasn't a big part of his life yep his liberal bohemian mother walking out of the family when he was six years old totally didn't inform his life in any way his father then remarried Patricia carolyn swanson and heiress to the Swanson frozen food fortune meaning that Tucker the boy who totally wasn't affected by his liberal bohemian mother grew up in extreme wealth and we'll get more into that later and it will be great but cut to his learning years and tucky was sent to a boarding school on account of being and this is according to his own words not very good at school he then became head of the debating society because you don't need to be good at school or know much about anything to be good at arguing a statement that we should all be painfully aware of by now according to 1999 Washington Post article profiling Tucker he once strode to the edge of the stage and challenged any member of the faculty to debate him on any subject because of course he did that of course he did that according to The New Yorker Tucker was later accepted in the Trinity College despite having poor grades because he was dating the daughter of his school's headmaster he then tried to join the CIA and failed because he wasn't any good his college still worth it by all accounts Tuvok Carlsbad wasn't too shabby at print journalism but then he shifted to television in the 2000s and things got stop-stop-stop-stop hurting America okay how old are you 35 and you wear a bow tie if you like lecture people like this would you come over their house and sit in lectures and you know they're not doing the right thing that they're missing their opportunities evading their responsibilities if I think they are with you man that's horrible I know and you won't things got pretty grim for tuck shortly after being disassembled by Jon Stewart on his own show Tucker was let go from CNN and moved to MSNBC where he lasted a few years before once again being let go for low ratings this was the time in which we see those more moderate clips of tricky handstand and also when he gave this 2003 interview with the Washington Post where he called Fox News and this is a direct quote a mean sick group of people after the network and this is totally real doxed his wife and kids Fox News ducks Tucker Carlson and at the time Tucker was outraged that they would put his family in danger man that's like poetry it's poetry for everything Tucker Carlson has ever said somewhere there's well and they were threatening my family to get me to stop talking and obviously I'm not going to because it's my job to talk and I have the support of Fox News and I'm grateful for that anywhoo 2003 was the same year that two Cobb had an interview with salon where he not only said that it would be hard to imagine him ever working at Fox News but also criticizes the demagoguery of folks like Bill O'Reilly and the use of straw men in the national discourse all while using the word hearted like way too much but then after repeated rejections for more centrist and left-leaning news organizations he held his nose and took a job at Fox News 2009 not long before starting a Daily Caller this was as you can probably remember with your brain right around when Barack Obama was elected the president Tucker was now 40 years old having spent his 30s being bounced around networks and it's not a stretch to imagine he was ready to settle down or in his own words Murdock I've got to give him credit when you talk about media conglomerates he's really knows what he's doing yes he is smart he's very smart really smart and you're his [ __ ] I'm a hundred percent as [ __ ] whatever mr. Murdock says I do Keith it's almost as if he secretly has no standards at all and doesn't actually believe in anything and kind of knows that and is therefore joking about it like obviously this interview from 2010 is meant to be a little bit in jest but if you notice that everything Tucker claims to be a joke has that funny because it's true vibe in his voice like when he's not hosting his show every other interview seems to be him ironically talking like a monster and flat-out saying that he's a foxnews puppet because he knows that's what he is and thinks it's a real hoot it's almost as if uh I don't know you're doing theater when you should be doing debate yes that's it thank you John along with being the year Tucker officially announced his [ __ ] hood to Rupert Murdoch it's also when he begins the not so mysterious change from conservative to racist Trump mouthpiece who tries really hard not to talk about Trump specifically because along with marking is hiring by Fox Obama's presidency also marks a big shift in the network itself this is an entirely different deep dive but if you're really interested I highly suggest you read this 10,000 word New Yorker article chronicling Fox News's transformation from a conservative news channel did the closest thing to state TV America has ever seen some highlights include the ideological shift from Rupert Murdoch being vocally Pro immigration in 2015 to the acceptance of Trump's their criminal rapists narrative not a few years later it's the story of a network that once canceled the likes of Glenn Beck for his conspiracy mongering and is now more than willing to float the idea that the DNC killed a man that reprimanded Sean Hannity for attempting to appear at a tea party fundraiser only to later ignore it when he does the same for Trump events Trump being the president it's the epic tale of a network that routinely swaps staff with the Trump administration speaks privately with the president and gets special treatment during press events a network and company that when attempting to sell its assets to Disney got no pushback from the Trump administration despite that same administration trying to block other competing media mergers it's really dark stuff and I know it's a lot of words but you should really read it and and maybe do something about it like all of us like all of us maybe do something about Fox News because the shift I'm describing is not conservative it's exclusively pro Trump and you can see this in the nightly work of Taraka Karl saw hunter the spectacle of illegal immigrants separated from their children the border has ceased to be a news story in any traditional sense of the term it is now an event a kind of competition in which elites vie to see who can reach greater heights of rhetorical excess and self-righteous posturing it is performance art really on Facebook senator Ben Sasse called the administration's policy wicked as in immoral and devilish former first lady Laura Bush likened it to the internment of the Japanese during World War two a moral stain upon this nation yeah can you believe these liberal elites like Ben Sasse and a Laura Bush and their outrage for Trump's practice of child detention and sure Laura Bush and Ben Sasse specifically but Tucker fans will identify this as him being fair and balanced not his slogan and he often presents himself as a centrist on his show his main target the rich elite you see just like Trump a millionaire hotel owner Tucker is a man of the people he's down in the trenches calling out the upper crust who are pitting the working class against each other with race painting and partisan politics he doesn't answer to one party he's just calling it like it is if that happens to coincidentally coincide and support all of trumps anti-immigration policies while demonizing his opposition well that's gesture that's a coincidence so she doesn't want other people using planes but Chile is a plane going back and forth between DC and and York because she's important it means she's she's the ruling class she's powerful Jack she's important so she gets to do these things but for you and me we're just you know the serfs along the way well racist Tucker fighting for us the serfs like him he's also that thing let's all unite with him a serf the person definitely not also elite and also race baiting and playing partisan politics divided countries are easier to rule and nothing divides us like the perception that some people are getting special treatment in our country some people definitely are getting special treatment Republicans should oppose that with everything they have see it's easier to control people by dividing them and the best way to divide them is to say that some people are getting special treatment also some people are definitely getting special treatment and you should be mad and Republicans are the only people who can stop it and that's for a particularly insane and rambling segment that as promised I'll try not to dwell on but I do need to point out that it starts with him talking about how poverty in rural America is a growing concern and what appears to be a thoughtful premise only to somehow blame the problem on women in the workplace and weed smoking in many areas women suddenly made more than men now before you applaud that as a victory for feminism consider some of the effects study after study has shown that when men make less than women women generally don't want to marry them a huge number of our kids especially our boys are smoking weed constantly you may not realize that because new technology has made it all but odorless but it's everywhere and that's not an accident once our leaders understood they could get rich from marijuana marijuana became ubiquitous in many places tax hungry politicians have legalized or decriminalized now I've never smoked weed before but I just want to point out that yes everything he's saying is a lie and that marijuana use among teens has been the lowest in two decades also lawmakers didn't legalize it on a whim it's something we voted for and I don't know maybe the reason he's blaming women and pot and rambling about how the American family is dying is because Fox viewers are super old and out of touch and want to complain about their grandchildren driving dinner with a 19 year old who's been smoking weed yeah I bet they'd rather be listening to the Grateful Dead Tucker but again I'm not going to repeat what other articles fact-checking this video have already said I mostly want to focus on this for our ruling class more investment-banking is almost always the answer are you paying attention according to a carl tuckson the problem is the elite ruling class the investment bankers who care more about foreign charities than supporting the workingman you can so far know this and more to the point who's going to pay for that not to people you've been watching on television today their kids go to private school if they have them their neighborhoods look exactly like they did in 1960 no demographic change at all just like they like it there's no cost to them the cost is entirely on you so again his enemy the people to blame for illegal immigration are the elite trying to divide us on national television while hidden away in affluent neighborhoods putting their kids through private schools meanwhile Tucker the surf is simply telling it like it is man he's one of us just a regular Schmo with a television show his downgrading is four million dollar home in Kent DC for a two million dollar one just a regular guy living in a rural neighborhood with four times the national median income struggling to put his four kids through private schools just a normal Joe whose mother was an heiress growing up and going to school and not one but two hassles little Lord Tucker and his brother Buckley schooled in hassles folks like a couple of non-special Harry Potter's how do you pay your bills well I'm like extraordinarily loaded just from like money I you know inherited from my number of trucks cars I'm the Swanson once again it's funny because it's true also a fun fact when a daily caller that awful news site he runs its biggest investor is Foster Friess not that one a wealthy mutual fund manager who is well known for giving to international charities he's literally funded by banker elites giving to charity overseas that thing he's saying hurts the country because the hilariously transparent thing about Tucker is that he pathologically rallies against the exact thing that he is a you are a millionaire funded by billionaires that's what you are that's it that's the thing he's an obvious fraud and a racist and a liar all things you probably already assumed so what happened to tacker corporal stan did the seemingly resolute conservative just bend to the will of fox news when it shifted to be more pro Trump to answer that I'd like to go all the way back to his decision to move from print journalism to television as described by his own autobiography quote I was heading back to my desk with a takeout hot dog one afternoon when I ran into the receptionist she asked me what I knew about the OJ trial my instinct was to answer honestly just about nothing but for some reason I caught myself I asked her why she wanted to know well she explained Dan Rather's Booker just called looking for an OG expert to go on 48 hours tonight everyone else is still at lunch can you do it within a few hours I was on my way to CBS in New York and there it is Tucker saw an opportunity to be special brushed off the fact that he was completely ignorant lied about his qualification and then plowed ahead despite having no clue what he was talking about him getting booed at CPAC in 2009 most likely it's signal that he would have to push farther right to be more popular and so he did that for money in other words he's just done what's the phrase your partisan what-do-you-call-it hacks yes thanks again John a colleague of mine Tucker is just a kid who applied to the CIA and then fell back on journalism and Tucker did too a good deal of reporting this early years but finding the truth was never his passion he just wants to be popular have a job and make money and he doesn't care what he has to say or do or who he hurts to get that and he killed it on Dancing with the Stars I guarantee he would have just done that instead he's not like an impressive guy and honestly he doesn't deserve our attention or an entire video devoted to him but because he somehow failed his way into a national spotlight and sucks we have no choice and maybe he should just go away or at least eat it Tucker eat eat the poop you actually don't get the ladle anymore sorry you got it you got to do with a fork holding the plate close to your mouth like you're slurping linguini without a napkin slurp the spaghetti Tucker it's not outrage mob culture to point out that he's a liar and a racist and sexist and homophobic and for those reasons should definitely not be in charge of the news he's not an entertainer like James Gunn or Roseanne Barr he's a news anchor who is watched by three million people and therefore responsible for informing his giant audience about everything from foreign policy to popular culture to immigration and he's on the record joking that Iraqis are semi illiterate primitive monkeys and mocking an entire gender of people with palpable contempt and frankly whether he was joking or how long ago he said these things have no business being debated his flaccid challenged for people to come on his show is just more gas lighting and pretty much the epitome of everything we've just talked about he lies so often on his show that I'm genuinely one during why we can't have a law against professional news anchors purposefully misleading the American people which is its kind of fascism like like he's making me want to do a fascism against him because he's so frustratingly and obviously grifting a large portion of America and no one is doing anything about it and and like maybe he'll stick around forever and that's he shouldn't but in the meantime if you ever get the opportunity to talk to him on camera to his face show him this video or like paraphrase it or say your own thing my point is that people should go on Tucker Carlson's show and describe his show to his face more often because he does not like it come up with your own thing you know make a game out of it roll the credits I'm vamping [Music] hey you thanks for sticking around and you know like and subscribe patreon.com slash some more news podcast is even more it is Twitter like and subscribe

For me, Cody is the most entertaining Youtuber I've found here so far. I love Contrapoints and PhilosophyTube, but something about Cody's approach just really oils my gears. He's succinct and yet incorporates a ton of comedy into it, and yet can go toe-to-toe with how offensive he gets (i.e. he'll never cross a line that the person he's accusing hasn't crossed, and will demonstrate it to make sure you know he's never stooping to a lower level).

Really wish I was watching this on Comedy Central instead of Youtube. But at least Youtube gives him the freedom of creative control (at least in terms of how long each of his segments are).

and tucks audience repeats the same bullshit tactics on their friends and family.

As a Belgian I will always cringe whenever people butcher a Dutch name like Rutger Bregman. But besides that great video :)

I can confidently say this is Cody’s best video to date, if not the best video I’ve seen all year.

I don't know why it be like this, but Tucker Carlson is literally the personification of every spoiled rich kid cartoon villain except... real, and grown-up. It's unreal how slimy he is!

Fun fact: my boyfriend has met Tucker, and could confirm that he is very much as creepy as he comes across IRL.

After this point the only thing that ever needs to be said about Carl Tuckerson is “the human bowtie strikes again.”
