Great episode. I love Glenn's take on Tucker Carlson. The truth about what's going on has to be reported. And there will always be an audience for it. The border situation is a hot topic that people overlook. And the double standard of the race debate is also overlooked. People are always going to be hungry for the truth. And this is why we love the Glenn and John connection. We receive honest conversations that we will not find from just any public intellectual.
Yes, another great episode, amply demonstrating why we love Glenn and John. And yes, the truth should be reported... which is precisely why Tucker Carlson is such a pernicious figure. He is more than happy to offer up lies to his viewers.
I wrote about this in a long post below, but for the sake of those who know it not, I've dug up the trailer to his "Patriot Purge" special. Oddly, it doesn't appear to be on YouTube, but you can still find it on Tucker's own Twitter feed:
Please watch that and then tell me that this is a man concerned with reporting the truth.
As a federal judge wrote while dismissing a defamation case against Carlson (in Macdougal v. Fox News Network), "Fox persuasively argues... that given Mr. Carlson’s reputation, any reasonable viewer 'arrive[s] with an appropriate amount of skepticism' about the statements he makes." (This is at the top of p.12 of the decision, which you can find here, if you want receipts: https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/7216968/9-24-20-McDougal-v-Fox-Opinion.pdf)
Even Fox News acknowledges that a reasonable person should not take Tucker Carlson seriously.
Reporting the truth? 99% of what he reports is 100% more accurate than the MSM reporting. January 6th? What is Tucker to do -- what are any of us to explain since the government refuses access to hundreds of hours of tape/videos? That is not Tucker's fault.
Now it certainly is true that discussion of "2000 MULES" is not allowed on Fox. It is the mirrored response of the MSM's failure to deal with Hunter Biden's corruption and his laptop. Both cases are examples of ideological censorship.
