[quote=Anonymous]Maybe we need a new thread, but now Tucker Carlson, in addition to being a white supremacist-courter and a liar and weakling who can't handle criticism....

Now Tucker is also a woman-hater and rape-excuser.  Great work, rightwing propaganda machine.  
Good job using dirty billionaire money to prop up horrible people like Tucker to lie to poor people.

Tucker Carlson Calls Women ‘Extremely Primitive’ in Unearthed Audio
In past comments on a popular radio show, the Fox News star said women “just need to be quiet and kind of do what you’re told.”

...

Carlson was working for MSNBC and Fox News while he was reportedly devoting about an hour a week to these rants, in which he appeared to defend statutory rape and called for the elimination of rape shield laws, among other things.

During a 2009 conversation about polygamist cult leader Warren Jeffs, who was convicted of felony rape as an accomplice, Carlson suggested Jeffs was only sent to prison because “he’s weird and unpopular.”

On Jeffs facilitating marriages between grown men and underage girls, Tucker said: “I just don't think it's the same thing exactly as pulling a child from a bus stop and sexually assaulting that child.”

“The rapist, in this case, has made a lifelong commitment to live and take care of the person, so it is a little different. I mean, let's be honest about it.”

When the show's co-host called the defense “twisted” and “demented,” Carlson responded by doubling down on his defense of Jeffs. “He's not accused of touching anybody, Carlson said. “He is accused of facilitating a marriage between a 16-year-old girl and a 27-year-old man.”[/quote][/quote]
