But there is a difference between PR and Journalism.

Especially when you go to court to proclaim that you are emphatically not a journalist.

I love how all the usual suspects are kvetching about this. They want us to fight Russia, but you would never catch them in a trench.


Idiot.

The difference is, the others actually asked hard and confrontational questions, AS OPPOSED TO what Tucker does, which is to support Putin's propaganda and serve as a mouthpiece.

I'm a liberal in my late 50s, but if we went to full blown war against Russia or China I'd offer myself up in a heartbeat. Not for trench warfare, but instead where my actual expertise lies - geoint and data science. Most of us are far more patriotic than you realize, and some of us have talents that are better suited for large scale strategic approaches than sitting in a trench. And if you didn't understand what I mean or it somehow doesn't comport with whatever worldview you've been fed, I suggest you discard your current notions and start over from square one.

Goes to show what a fraud and a joke Putin has become - he's refused interviews with internationally recognized, respected and acclaimed ACTUAL journalists, yet accepts an interview with a grifting, lying, non-journalist clown like Tucker Carlson.

And what do you hope to learn?


I make an effort to listen to all different viewpoints, especially interviews with leaders of countries who have nukes who we are in a proxy war against. It beats being spoonfed a one-sided media diet.


Putin is an Ex-KGB agent who has found a useful idiot to advance his cause. Tucker wants to get back to where he was in popularity and he’ll debase himself and his country to get there.

I’m sorry to say, based on your post, and a sheepish response to all this, it’s pretty easy to assume you probably support many of the values Putin claims to care about (Christian nationalism, anti-gay policies, “traditional values”). You’re not here because you “just want to avoid war unnecessarily” or whatever excuse you have. You probably straight up don’t like a lot of contemporary liberal values.

If you’re okay with listening to what a guy who keeps on annexing ex-Soviet countries has to say, it’s pretty clear you’re sympathetic to his reasoning.


Palestine espouses Islamic nationalism, anti gay policies, and traditional values.

And yet no one accuses the far left of the bolded.

You guys are impossible.


Clever distraction. “Firehose of propaganda” technique.


It's called context, and it's important when you're evaluating the validity of an assertion. If you're saying that people who don't want the US involved in the Ukraine/Russia conflict are pro-Russia and everything Russia stands for, then it stands to reason that the same is true for the left and the Palestine/Israel conflict.


It’s whataboutism.

Let’s stick to Tucker interviewing a KGB dictator who hates gays, pushes his political opponents out of windows or sends them to Gulags in Siberia, and is invading neighboring countries in an effort to grow territory lost and become an empire again.

And let’s talk about how conservatives are okay with listening to this propaganda session because of their confirmation bias. You hate liberal culture so much you’re willing to align with an authoritarian regime.


So, you have an opinion now?

Charlie Rose:


Megyn Kelly:


Barbara Walters:


Oliver Stone:


Tucker isn't a journalist

Oh, you’ve already seen it? That makes way more sense.

Agree! Some of us also are fighting them now in cyber and the IC. So please stop with the liberals aren’t as patriotic as conservatives.

Reminder: Tucker Carlson's own attorneys argued in court that no reasonable person should take Tucker Carlson seriously.

That means, Tucker Carlson does not think Vladimir Putin or his own fan base are reasonable people.

What a clown show Tucker is.
