[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tucker looks younger than he is. His kids are adults or very close to being adults.

I watched him since he was in CNN Crossfire. He is interesting and unpredictable and not really all that partisan. Most people commenting here have obviously never watched his show. This is not Hannity or Ingraham or Rush. Most of the time he argues with the opposing side and often, he loses.[/quote]

That is true of the old Tucker. Not the one who sold his soul to take over O'Reily's hour. I used to think just as you did about Tucker but his current show is just blatant propaganda. I hope the bajillions of dollars he's making are worth it.

I'm sometimes more disgusted with him than Ingraham and Hannity actually because I think they are just terrible people and true believers. Tucker I know, deep down, knows how effing insane all this is and has decided the paycheck is worth being complicit. [/quote]

Please share some quotes of Carlson's "blatant propaganda". Thank you![/quote]
First, you'd have to ask the liberal how he defines "blatant propoganda." I imagine it's "opinions I disagree with."[/quote]

Well first I am a woman. Second I would love to sit down with you guys and watch Tucker Carlson and talk to you about how I think he rhetorically manipulates his audience pretty shamelessly.

He asks extraordinarily leading questions designed not to actually hear something from his guest, but to tell something to his audience via the question. IE, he doesn't ask, 'how do you feel about illegal immigration guest?' he will instead say, 'but aren't you worried about murdering gang members infecting our schools and swarming across the border?'

That is not journalism, it is an expert spreading of fear and dishonestly. So yes I disagree with his opinions. But more than that I disagree with his dishonest and deceptive messaging tactics that are designed to humiliate/cut down his guests and to spread his opinions not via good faith sharing of ideas, but through insidious rhetorical tricks on his show.

And worst of all, I don't think he believes them all, so he's using his powers not just for things he believes in, but for the Trump administration. You know that every time a huge trump story breaks and when you tune into Tucker he's talking about some mexican who assaulted someone in LA that they have no information on. Bad news about Trump? Won't cover it but WILL continue to spread his message of fear to reinforce the base's feelings that they need to stand by Trump despite whatever the bad news story is. [/quote]
