Fuck Tucker Carlson

Tucker Carlson is flat-out defending someone going out with a rifle and murdering protestors.

Variety: ‘Fire Tucker Carlson’: Fox News Host Condemned for Comments on Deadly Shooting of Kenosha Protesters

List of advertisers on Carlson's show: https://twitter.com/briantylercohen/status/1298780620575842304

However, it looks like he has very few major advertisers left at this point and is being supported by Fox News as a whole.

I don't see the previous comment here. Was it screened? Just curious.





Anyway...I think I might have heard this guy a time or two. Absolutely appalling the lengths to which some people will go. Glad Fox News isn't on my to-watch list and will never be. At least as long as they keep up this crap. Ironically a sister of mine--who does not like the current political situation one bit--watched a few Fox News broadcasts on her phone. She did it out of curiosity though.

Someone posted a comment here (which they've since deleted -- I didn't touch it, but got the notification in my email inbox) that said "Why did I read the comments?" I presumed they were referring to comments attached to some of the articles linked in the main post, not comments made here.
