TCN - Tucker Carlson Network

I'm fine with different opinions but I don't pay people to lie to me. It's a waste of my time and money and I'm not interested in being someone else's useful idiot.

Quote from Razer

You don’t think TC tells it like it is?

More so in the past with hefty doses of hyperbole. Once he and his father got tight with Orban he took a serious turn towards being someone else's tool. I give credit where due but judge someone based on their merits and failings. He has does some good interviews and had legit points. That does not mean he is honest or not very biased.

Look noname is back.

(Saw him (MNN) on WOT the other day.) Tucker is doing the subscription thing to get around the endless advertiser boycotts started by groups like Media Matters, not a bad idea. At the end, Rush Limbaugh had 20+ million weekly listeners, and not ONE single large corp bought ads on his show, they were all afraid. Hasn't changed with Clay/Buck

$9/mo or $6/mo if you pay annually.

Anyone signed up yet or planning to? I’m interested but I do wish he had called it something else.

I probably will, I do Daily Wire that way as well

It's safe to say Tucker has advertisers / sponsors and it influences his version of the "truth".

He's obviously compromised. We should just ignore him until he goes away. Let CNN and Fox have the last word.

I don't share your view of Tucker Carlson and neither do I find credibility in your statements that he has jumped the shark.

That's nice. I get that a lot of people want to be told what they want to hear. I'm a fan of valuing an honest opinion based on facts over being spoon fed politicized talking points. Without having a rounded factual basis everything is propaganda.

No true Scotsman!!!!

How much of your view of Tucker owes to his negative views of Ukraine?

A good portion because I spent a ton of time listening to all sides of the conflict. I know that the greater majority of what he says about UA aligns directly with pro Russian propaganda and his use of facts are one sided. That being said, his views and facts presented on all matters have shifted far more to the alt rgt than they were a couple years ago and his use of "facts" that are beyond dishonest is way more over the top than they used to be. It's not just hyperbole, it's click bait narrative building over any sense of journalistic balance.

I gave him credit for doing some solid coverage prior to the last couple years and I watched a lot of his monologues and interviews. I don't look at most people or things as all bad or all good. Most are not. Some like FJB are 99% bad, some like Tucker are 70% bad when they used to be 30% bad but majority good for the country. I don't judge by whether I agree with someone nearly as harshly as whether I can trust them. If some one is consistently straight out lying most of the time to push a narrative, on any side of the coin , I have little regard for them. It's not left vs rgt politically for me. It's up vs down on the credibility scale.

This right here is why the Republic is lost.

Are you saying you agree with my perspective or dispute it?

What difference does it make?

By all means share yours. I'm always open to reasoned thought.

Like hell you are.
